Hello I'm Local - Boutique Hostel, hotel in Haarlem

I am the most local boutique hostel in the world. My 21 rooms are all themed with Dutch designs that reflect Haarlem and its surroundings. Want to be close to everything? You're in luck!

I was able to drop off my luggage before check-in and go out for lunch. When I returned, I checked in easily. There was a guest kitchen available; I didn't use it but it was clean and I saw others use it! I stayed in one of the female dorms, which had 4 built-in bunk beds (8 total beds). Each bunk had it's own built-in storage underneath for guests to use, with hinges to attach a lock. Towels and bed linens were included; bed was already neatly made, I just had to retrieve a fresh towel from the front desk. Each bunk had a functioning lamp and one USB port. There were also at least 2 full outlets in the room. Separate toilet and shower, both with their own sink. Hooks on the shower room wall as well as a hook for each guest in the bedroom! Great for hanging my tote and rain jacket at night. Breakfast was yummy and affordable. The hostel is located in the quiet area of town, which was awesome. No loud people in the streets or in the hostel itself to disturb your rest even with windows open. Extensive "living space" throughout the building (tables and chairs to work or eat or chat at) including an open air space. I spent my days in Amsterdam; the main Haarlem train station is a 15-20 minute walk (or you can take a bus from Bushalte Turfmarkt, about a 7 min walk from the hostel) and there are trains to Amsterdam Centraal at least twice an hour.

ClinkMama, hotel in Haarlem

ClinkMama is conveniently set in the center of Amsterdam, and provides a shared lounge, free WiFi and a bar.

The common areas are where they shine. So comfortable with lots of spaces to be alone but also helped to foster community without being forced. The place was so clean and you could tell everyone who worked there cared about keeping the place comfortable and accessible. The staff is super friendly and helpful and the location was very central to lots of great spots.

Great location and friendly staff. First time sleeping in a capsule bed. Compared to bunkbed, it allows much more privacy, but the ventilation is still good enough.

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Really nice hostel with a warm and welcoming vibe. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. We stayed in an apartment with our two young sons there. There was lots of space for the four of us and it had everything we needed. A lovely find. The stairs was quite steep and needed a bit of safety monitoring with our toddler, a given consideration in Holland. Good location & we would stay there again.

    The breakfast was nice and the view in the morning was gorgeous. It is worth a place to stay if you are on a budget or a backpacker. Overall, you pay very cheap for the night and it is worth your money.

    Easily one of the best hostels I have been in. It was modern, clean and it felt like they cared to give you a really good stay. They were super nice, gave suggestions on places to eat and drink and also had free lemon water available at the reception! Keep in mind that it's a "calm" hostel. If you are looking to party hard, this would not be the place to go. If you want a place outside of the city centre of Amsterdam, where you can rest on a tight budget, this is the perfect place.
