Hotels in der Nähe von Oostvaardersplassen, Almere

Wunderbar! Meine Mutter und ich verbrachten hier Ende Juni/Anfang Juli 8 Nächte, als wir in Edam waren, um an einem Nähworkshop der Dressmakers Academy teilzunehmen, und es war die perfekte Lage. Das Zimmer war schön, genauso wie das im Preis inbegriffene Frühstück jeden Morgen mit einer tollen Auswahl. In dem Zimmer hatten wir zwei Einzelbetten, das Zimmer hatte eine tolle Größe für uns beide für 8 Nächte und es gab Fenster, die sich zum Innenhof des Restaurants öffneten (wir waren im zweiten Stock), und es war schön, frische Luft hereinzulassen. An einem der Abende aßen wir auch im Restaurant, was auch wunderbar war! Dies war ein schönes Hotel (und Restaurant) und ich kann einen Aufenthalt hier wärmstens empfehlen.

Die Lage in IJburg ist natürlich nicht Innenstadtlage. Mit der Tram 26 ist der Centraal Bahnhof aber in ca. 20 min. gut erreichbar. Ein Supermarkt liegt zwischen der Endstation (hier gibt es auch einen Fahrkartenautomat) und dem Hotel. Durch die Erreichbarkeit mit dem ÖPNV ist eine Anreise mit Zug oder mit dem Auto, dass man im Parkhaus (es gibt günstigere Parkplätze als im Hotel selbst) lassen kann, gut möglich. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut. Es können auch Wünsche geäußert werden, die dann frisch zubereitet werden (z.B. Spiegelei, Omelett). Heißgetränke gibt es per Selbstbedienung aus dem Vollautomaten. Es gibt hier auch eine leckere heiße Schokolade. Das Zimmer sieht etwas unfertig aus. Graue Wände ohne Farbe. Es gibt keinen Schrank, sondern nur ein Regal mit Kleiderstange. Ein kleiner Tresor, einen Fernseher mit u.a. deutschen Sendern (ARD, ZDF, RTL) gibt es auch. Das Badezimmer trennt eine Milchglas-Schiebetür, die aber eine Lücke offen lässt, dass sollte man berücksichtigen, wenn man das Zimmer nicht alleine belegt. Beim Duschen wird das halbe Badezimmer nass, weil die Dusche nur zur Hälfte geschlossen ist und es keine Tür gibt. Das Hotel ist zu empfehlen, wenn man denn beim Preis ein Schnäppchen machen kann, 200 Euro pro Nacht wäre zu viel.

Not quite sure why there are so many negative reviews calling this place unacceptable, for the price you pay you’re definitely getting your moneys worth and some. The male young receptionist was friendly at check in and guided us to our room (although he didn’t know some answers about basic questions about the area, such as he incorrectly told us the wrong time for the last trams, he was very kind but maybe the staff could be told some answers to the most common questions). The junior suite was extremely spacious, had a lovely bathroom, lots of mirrors which was nice, large bed and lots of light windows overlooking the dock. The room was fab, however like some other reviews state sometimes there was a mysterious odour, particularly on the last day, but it wasn’t unbearable. Could definitely do with some harder mattresses which would definitely improve everyone’s experience but I still slept perfectly. Location is perfect for the price, only a 14min tram away from Amsterdam Centraal. The coffee pods and machine in the room were nice but could also put some biscuits there too which would be amazing. Maybe needs a repaint of the room but it’s safe to say i’d definitely stay again

I had to say for a month stay at the Yays Docklands in March 2024. There were some positives and not so positives about my stay, so let's get started: Positives Apartments are spacious (I stayed in a 2 bedroom one), you'll find kitchen utensils, microwave, fridge, coffee maker (Nespresso) so this will help save on restaurant bills. Rooms are comfy enough with a full bathroom and you'll find shampoo and shower gel upon arrival so no need to bring along unless your skin type requires a specific one. I found the shower temperature to be fine yet it would suddenly get slightly colder during the course of a shower for no particular reason. Wifi does work (my Zoom calls went uninterrupted except for a day where wifi did not work for over 24 hours, no apologies nor previous advice from Yays), you can connect your phone to the TV, which you'll find one wall-mounted one in the main bedroom in addition to the living room. Yays is mostly used by tourists or, as me, people staying for weeks at a time, so it's very quiet during the day, I worked from the apartment a few days and I was perfectly able to enjoy the silence. There's a nearby street (Borneostraat) which is multiethnic and where you'll find great Turkish coffee, authentic baklava and many interesting restaurants. I encourage you to explore this street. Not so positives Location is a bit removed from downtown, however that's a matter of perspective. You can get to Central Amsterdam in about 15 to 20 minutes so it all depends on your particular preference. You can go there by tram, bus or even train (this one I'd discourage as it takes some walking or bus/tram). If you need some grocery shopping done, your closest supermarket is about 1 km away so be prepared to walk and carry your groceries with you. Staff at Yays is not responsive, cleaning arrangements are modified which is rather inconvenient and the cleaning crew don't bother to check if you're running low on gel or shampoo. All in all, I think the positives outweigh the not so positives, mostly if you're only staying for a few days as you'll most surely spend most of the time exploring Amsterdam and surrouding areas. Would I stay at the Yays again?: if I can find a better located alternative then no, I would not just for the convenience factor. Tip: Ask for a room located on a high floor, views will be better and you'll be more removed from the street noise (nothing to be concerned about, just one club located next to the Yays which operates Friday and Saturday evenings but the noise coming from it is very light). Hope this will be useful for you.

Tolle ruhige Lage, saubere schöne, vor allem große Zimmer, sehr freundliches Personal, ausreichendes Frühstück, sogar für Veganer, ein Urlaub wie im Bilderbuch, so wünscht man sich das! Wir kommen bestimmt wieder 😊

Stayed at the amazing Via Amsterdam recently. First impressions were great a lady helped us massively before arrival answering all our queries in reservations and was very helpful with tips of places to visit and getting tickets etc even very helpful travel tips from the airport. We came to check in and loved the place it’s about a 10 minute walk from the local station could be done quicker once you know the route. The whole reception lay out is huge, lots of seating, games area, even it’s own cinema area. We had a very nice gentleman on check in called Bart who was lovely, he helped us with directions, booking breakfast and dining tips. We dined in the Bar called the dude and had a couple of drinks. Bar is quite expensive but nice vibe only fault we found was a very limited restaurant menu choice, we did eat the burgers (no other choice) and they are recommended but you don’t want to eat the same thing every night. Rooms are spacious but quite sp**** could do with a table and a couple of chairs to be fair so you can sit and chat. Very clean and comfy beds. Showers only and a bit small but offer free shampoo and shower gel, no towels so bring your own. Breakfast was a bit of a poor show and could do with improvements. For the amount you pay it’s not worth it. You could go into Amsterdam and buy something better for cheaper. We had seen online people complaining about not being central but honestly it’s no issue there is a metro within walking distance and takes you directly into Amsterdam central in about 15 minutes and run regularly. Overall had an fantastic stay and would highly recommend to anyone. You cannot fault the place. I did have a nightmare after checkout tho and was my only complaint as I was overcharged and tried for nearly a month to get a refund from the manager jonannes who wouldn’t speak to me because apparently he was too busy (not the best customer service from a manager) I tried calling and emailing but he just wouldn’t reply or sort the problem and other poor staff tried to make excuses for it not being sorted sooner, it was eventually sorted by someone else but after such a good stay it did leave me feeling slightly disappointed. Hopefully he has improved his customer service by now as this does not reflect on how good this place actually is.

Das Hotel ist vom Flughafen aus mit der Bahn sehr einfach und schnell zu erreichen. Das Stadtzentrum erreicht man mit der Metro in ca. 15 Minuten. Auf Dauer wäre uns ein nahe gelegenes Hotel aber lieber gewesen. Nicht weit entfernt vom Hotel gibt es auch ein paar Restaurants/Bars und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Das Frühstück war ganz gut und hier ist für jeden etwas dabei, allerdings war hier immer sehr viel los und aktuell gibt es hier auch immer Zeitfenster die man einhalten muss. Unser Zimmer wurde in den ersten beiden Tagen nicht gereinigt. Nach Beschwerde an der Rezeption wurde sich hier immer nur entschuldigt und uns wurden dann neue Handtücher in die Hand gedrückt. Die Fenster im Zimmer lassen sich leider nicht öffnen und somit gibt es nur eine Klimaanlage. Im großen und ganzen war das Hotel für einen Kurztrip ausreichend.
