Castricum Hotels

poor maintenance

Clean and comfortable rooms Lack of help to find the rooms

Good breakfast to mach chlorine into swimming pool

this is our 2nd visit in this year and we r convinced that we want to keep going there again. best value for money. excellent staff, swimming pool, for weekend breaks, kids friendly. simply superb!

ease of access from the main road and breakfast distance from lobby to hotel room no plug on sink in bathroom (room 152)

we were well looked after by the staff and the food was good none

Proximity to beach.Good range of bread at breakfast.Helpfull staff. Ensuite bathroom was in urgent need of modernisation.

The view of the beach was great. The cleaning staff did not give us towels daily and did not clean the room. They made the beds only.

Visit a beach party

Proximity to beach was fantastic! Our room was huge by european standards, with a patio that overlooked the ocean! In room mini-fridge and plates/utensils make it ideal for family stays! The bedding was not the most comfortable - very stiff/scratchy sheets/duvet. However, that won't stop me from returning here as soon as I can!!

souroundings, located in the middle of a forest - quiet at first they gave us a smoking room, and said it is a non smoking room...but they moved us to a much better room with no problems

Attitude of the bar staff (Andre) was deplorable.

Staff are helpful , friendly and professional, location is lovely

the breakfast was good value for money i had a ground floor room and did not feel very secure

Location and the size of the room are excellent they allow dogs in the rooms......

location very poor breakfast , service is done by very young unexperienced staff that is not capable to do a proper a waiter job. breakfast terrace and room look very messy and so does the kitchen. toilettes on the ground floor durty and not properly maintained in the morning. it seems that the managing of this hotel is not doing a proper job .

Near beach It was to expensive

staff were very friendly and helpfull the taxi service we used doubled from the day we arrived which was not the hotels fault

Very good location and friendly staff. Very convenient to have bicycles for rent on premises. Restaurant was quite good for evening meals. Would have appreciated brewed coffee instead of from a machine for Breakfast. Breakfast offerings were depleted by large tour groups on one morning. And too many items prepackaged in plastic. Gave a less personal feeling. Was charged 12.50 euro for a lunch packet which simply had the same items offered for breakfast.

Very convenient for the beaches and town of Alkmaar. Pleasant surroundings The breakfast buffet looked disappointing for the price so we chose not to have it

good place for travel by car in this zone

Room confort Breakfast is not very varied, food is provided in very small quantities and is missing rapidly. Some efforts are recommended to improve breakfast quality.

Staff was very friendly. We enjoyed the fact that there was coffee available anytime and we could sit in the lounge area. No elevator available. The stairs were tricky with the luggage.

Nice and friendly people, easy to find, good located at the center of town Personally, I do not like a double room with two single beds, but hey, maybe it's only me ;). The room was a bit small, sounds from the neighbours were quite good to hear (I guess, ours, too...)

The Garage was an advantage

freindly and helpfull

. Cleanliness was poor since sand from the beach that we accidently took with us was still there the next day. we asked for some extra coffee and only been given 2 small samples, i find that a little poor

Owners very helpful. We are both smokers and they changed our room to one with a balcony which was very helpful. Room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast is a buffet which was regularly replenished and as much tea and coffee as you wanted. Lounge was also very comfortable with a small bar. Hotel is near the beach and also the the Cafe de Zon which was where we were heading for the night. Some areas could do with a good clean eg balcony and net curtains in the dining room but it was March and maybe this was done after the winter weather was well past and in preparation for summer trade. Breakfast is only served between 9.30 and 10 which might be a problem for some and there are no tea/coffee facilities in the room.

Friendly, relaxed

Very good housekeeping, the hotel is freshly decorated. The proximity of the beach and restaurants is excellent. Our room was extremely small, there was really no space to stretch. No sitting area in the room. Very small closet, impossibly small bathroom. The room we had is looking at the rooftop of the fish restaurant, with constant, very strong smell of fish. After couple of days, even the bigest fish lovers would vow never to taste any fish again. Hotel is not recommended for people with size larger than "medium".

Modern, clean accommodation,comfortable bed, excellent location,very good breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Minor point only but would like tea/coffee making in room.

no shower only bath in the room, double-bed as a family room, no childeren infrastructure

Very nice view over the North Sea They were rebuilding during our stay which made a bit of noise.

I was close to the conference venue. The room was small, but comfortable. The hotel does not have a specific reception area, which make it uncomfortable to do the administration.
