I wanted a room with seaview AND balcony, and seemingly only an expensive suite was available. It was way too large just for myself, yet very pleasant to stay there. For such a price though (200+ EUR / night), there were a few things that could be improved. Upon check-in around 12.30 p.m., the front desk immediately told me that 'room wasn't ready" ... before I even gave my name and booking reference!! Insisting a little, they could easily find a room that already was available ... This was a tad unprofessional especially in a still very quiet area, a huge hotel with many rooms in the covid era. Then, both minibar and kitchen fridges were quite old and not cooling well. A tech came but couldn't bring a more recent fridge, saying my room was one of the only ones left not upgraded there ... At last the balcony was very dirty with sea gulls poop, making it impossible to lay there without shoes. Globally however, this was a luxury and very comfortable room with a great view, right on the beach, and close to all Zandvoort got to offer.
