"We stayed here for 4 nights, we were welcomed with a very friendly manner.
Our Room wasn’t quite ready, due from us being slightly early for check in.
We were able to leave our suitcases so we could go out & explore Zaandam.
The hotel was in an excellent location, a few minutes walk up to the train station, there was an escalator & a lift to the top. The train station was good, great clear screens so you could see what platforms you needed, a 15 minute transfer on the sprinter train to the city central. We arrived by train from Schiphol airport which was so easy to do the transfer took around 18 minutes, a great way to travel around, very easy, reliable & very reasonable, we used it every day we were there.
We didn’t have any food at the hotel as we are not breakfast people, we ate out when we were out exploring so no food was required!
We did use the bar for a relaxing drink on return from our busy days out.
Staff were very pleasant, and a lovely relaxing atmosphere in comfortable chairs.
Our room was lovely, A very comfy queen size bed, great pillows. We slept so well. A fantastic bathroom with a walk in shower which was very powerful.
A safe & coffee machine, we used this for an instant coffees which I took with me.
I Would highly recommend this hotel."
"The Carleton square Hotel in Haarlem, NL is an excellent place to stay. Within walking distance of the town center even for seniors with mobility issues. Very clean and comfortable. The elevator was a must. Most importantly the staff are warm, friendly, helpful and professional. The restaurant is excellent. We definitely recommend it."
"Hotel was clean, staff was super nice and respectful, the room was a bit too small for me and the toilet was also tiny but I don’t travel to the Netherlands to be inside the room so overall the place was great, clean and safe. I will stay here again in a heartbeat."
"This hotel was so nice! It was super unique with its design, and we loved it for this reason. There was everything we needed in the room. I couldn’t figure out the electricity — you have to put the room key in a slot to get power! I’m sure they said this as I checked in with all of my jetlag LOL.
The one thing that was super confusing was how to get from the train station to the hotel. The hotel staff was helpful when I called. There is an elevator on the street but it is frequently down. What is important to know is that a little further up the street, you can use the elevator in Primark which will take you down to the street level (there is a street above a street)…. and then cross the bridge. Or, there is an elevator near Dreamland, which can also help get you to the right level.
The pool and sauna…. amazing. Beautiful… just so nice! It was nice and warm (not too warm) and had a really nice ambience. The sauna was very clean and was nice.
I wish we would have stayed for 2 nights. This was a really, really nice place to stay, and so unique. "
"Easy stay near NS train station 🚉 and a grocery store just by the hotel

Amsterdam Centraal is at 11 min by train 🚆
We had a great 5 days stay"
