I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although having a sea view and convenient lighting controls, were too small for two people. The service had ups and downs, with some staff being wonderful while others were more focused on their own needs. The location was great, with easy access to the city center by tram and beautiful surroundings by the IJmeer seashore.

I loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were fabulous, spacious, and so classy, yet cozy at the same time. The view of the port was absolutely gorgeous. The service was lovely and very good value for money. The location, although a bit out of town, was worth the short tram ride to the center. The dining experience was a bit overpriced for what was offered, but the overall experience was fantastic.

The hotel's rooms were modern and new but poorly designed, with water splashing out during showers and being small for two people. The service promptly moved us to another room but was slow in taking orders. The location was a bit far in IJburg, yet well-connected by tram, with lovely interior lobby decor and nearby dining options.
