Hotel Restaurant 't Schouwse Hof  

Reasonably close to airport -- if you have a car Cheap

This hotel is certainly not three star. While the room was reasonably large, there was * no elevator *a minuscule table on which a laptop just about fits; * no folding luggage rack on which to lay your suitcase; * no laundry bag; * no coat hook in the bath room on which to hang a bathrobe. Additionally, I had the misfortune of staying on Monday night. On Tuesday morning, there is a market on the square in front of the hotel, so that one has to park about three blocks away. There is then no provision for loading your luggage back in the car except to haul it on icy city streets. The receptionist apologizes for all this, but her frozen smile does not help the traveler. I would suggest that they close the hotel on Monday nights (or further discount the rate), rather than have the customer face such an inappropriate level of service. I will not go back.

The attached restaurant, which I believe was run by the hotel staff was excellant and superb value for money. The waiter and chef were very professional, welcoming and knowledgeable.

Sadly the check out experience was not so good. After trying to pay for the evening meal separately by both credit and debit card, due to the restaurant being separateky owned, the morning waiter then informed me he didnt think it set up for my cards, which were standard Visa, and asked me to go to the nearest bank to withdraw cash. He then was not aware I had paid in full for the accomodation at the time of booking and held me up so much I nearly missed my flight. These very un-proessional and poor policies and procedures meant the e-mails I had sent the previous evening recommending the hotel to my collegues was resent asking them to ignore my earlier e-mail.

Very nice place - and a good restaurant (and far away from the citycenter of Amsterdam). Breakfast was super!

Clean, simple, family atmosphere, breakfast OK.

Great to have restaurant in hotel. Close to airport without being a standard airport hotel. Free parking and internet. Breakfast included. Aalsmeer is nice little community.

Had to pay cash because equipment was broken. Towels were marginal. Double room came with single beds. Spartan.

The hotel is ideally situated for an overnight stay prior to departing from Schiphol.

Parking restrictions at the front of the hotel which required a parking disk after 9,00am. Foreign visitors would not have a parking disk in their possesion.

Nice hotel to stay overnight near airport,good breakfast, close to bus stops .

A bit smoking smell at the room, otherwise everything is fine

Breakfast was excellent as was the steak I had for dinner the previous evening. The room was small but well equiped, coffee or tea in the room would have been appreciated.

The Hotel is located in a quiet beautiful town. Clean and Comfortable. Free Car Parking and Free Breakfast, value for Money.

The food in the restaurant was excellent, well presented, tasty and good value for money. I eat there 3 nights running which is unusual for me.

My only criticism was the single beds, they were narrow I would have preferred a double bed.

Was upgraded to a nice suite.

Breakfast was a bit limited, no airconditioning. Parking in front of the hotel was not available due to the weekly market

Very pleasant small family run hotel on the edge of the town centre. Only used as an overnighter and I couldn't ask for more. Restaurant was good and very busy - but it was a weekend. I would use again if required.

It might be only 7km from Schiphol but a taxi costs €25 each way. A bus service (number 198) is available but it is still a good walk from the nearest bus stop to the hotel if you have baggage. I did hear it was 1.5km but cannot confirm.
