3 Star Hotels in IJmuiden, North Holland

"Perfect location for spending a couple of days in Amsterdam "

"Near"

"Loved it"

"I was a little worried after reading the reviews, but was very pleasantly surprised with my 2 night stay. Parking was plentiful and fairly reasonable for Amsterdam. Check in was quick and easy, though they do make you aware of the very strict no smoking policy which some people seem to have been caught by. The room was spotless and quite modern. Bathroom was clean and the AC worked very well. I had 2 of the best nights sleep here out of my 2 week trip. I did find the breakfast very expensive, but just walked to McDonald's literally next door instead. The elevator also tends to jam up around 11 am as everyone tried to leave at the same time. Getting into the city was a breeze on the Number 1 train line. 20 minites walk if you believe Google, or 3 minutes if you are willing to walk across the road instead of follow the bike paths. I will add a photo of the hotel from the train station to show how close it is. We got the GVB daily pass for $9.50 using the GVB app. This made travelling quick, easy and affordable as the daily pass is a virtual ticket that can be used for 24 hours from time of activation and is good for GVB buses, trains, trams and even the night bus. If you bus the 2 or 3 day pass, it works out even cheaper. Overall a great stay and would stay here again. "
