“Not a good hotel! Terrbile sleep quality and poor location!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2010

This was my first trip to Holland, so i didnt really know the areas too well, the Tulip Inn looked ok on the internet, but I experience there wasnt good, firstly I had booked 3 nights , but couldnt make the first night, I emailed them in advance, but they say they didnt recieve the email , so I forfieted a night, the location may be around nice homes,but it is near impossible to find, even with a GPS, the room was terrible, it was on the ground floor and you had to walk through the restuarant and kitchen to get there, and then it was a narrow passageway to get into the room, the bed was uncomfortable and the room was too hot, even when outside was only about 7 degrees, the floor above was obviously timber, as the ceiling sqeaked all night and I couldnt sleep, then early in the morning all I could hear was a lot of noise in the nearby kitchen, the hotel was also overpriced. I wish I had stayed in Central Amsterdam or near the coast and payed a bit more money, I think this hotel is probably only suitable for elderly people who dont know any better or want to holiday in an uninteresting location , such as Hilversum, I hope next time I travel through Holland , it is a more pleasant experience, I definitely wont be staying at the Tulip Inn

“Tulip Inn Hotel and Apartments nice stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2007

The Tulip Inn in Hilversum has two facilities, a true Hotel and a separate Apartment structure. I've stayed in both over the last two years. The staff is the same for both and I have nothing but compliments for the staff. As one who doesn't speak Dutch, they have always been extremely patient, friendly, and helpful. Virtually everyone speaks fluent english in the Netherlands and many restaurants have an english translated menu if you ask.
Both buildings are located a few minutes walk from central Hilversum and the train station. They do not offer bike rentals, but you can rent them at the train station. Amsterdam is a 25 minute ride by train.
The Hotel is very clean and in a quiet area with non-smoking rooms available. The linens and towels were clean and changed often. The hotel restaurant is excellent but a bit expensive.
The apartments are a short walk away in an old three floor building. The setting is very beautiful especially in Spring. There is a well maintained garden on the grounds. The apartment building is locked so that only residents may enter. There is a self laundry on the first floor but the hotel also has a service that cost a bit more but is very convenient. Each room has a full bathroom with shower; small kitchen with stove top, microwave, refrigerator, sink, dishwasher; a living room with TV, radio, couch, dining table, and desk; and bedroom.
The only negative comments are that some of the apartment rooms are a bit abused. Most rooms have dents in the walls and could use a new coat of paint. In all the rooms I’ve stayed in, something didn’t work correctly, be it a light or stove top or running toilet. One room I stayed in my last trip had small holes in the walls, cigarette burns on the window sills, and squashed bugs on the walls. It obviously had not been cleaned well before I arrived. Most rooms are much cleaner and if you report the broken items the staff will have them fixed. My real complaint is that the staff does not thoroughly check a room over before a new guest arrives.
My other complaint is that the walls are thin in the apartments and I've had the bad luck to stay when young party goers are there making noise late into the night.

  • Liked — Friendly staff and free internet
