Lock in a great price for Paal 8 Hotel aan Zee – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

The location is amazing, with a few steps you're on the beach. The restaurant is lovely, also for hanging by the fire, or reading a newspaper.

The location. This is the main reason for my choice for paal 8.

Anonymous, Netherlands

Location of the property is outstanding. Right at the beach and depending on the room a great ocean view.

Jur, United States of America

Great hotel if you are looking for a getaway with family or friends. Away from all the rush, very close to the beach. They've got a very good swimming pool and sauna. Restaurant in the hotel is also nice, there is another restaurant very close by at the beach.

Vinod, Netherlands

Perfect location, great public transport service and affordable taxis available

Miriam, Netherlands

Paal 8 has a unique location. Serves a good breakfast. Staff is very helpful and service orientated. Rooms are clean and fresh.

Henk-jan, Netherlands

extremely nice and patient personnel very welcoming and helpful. excellent location 2 min walk from the beach. you need to take a 25min bus from ferry station to the hotel but it is worth it.

Siyi, Netherlands

The location of the hotel is fantastic. Being in the dunes was a wonderful experience. The rooms were spacious and the balconies great. We were particularly lucky with two of our rooms on the ground floor which opened directly on to the dunes. The breakfast was good, especially the cheese, bread and cranberry juice.

Be aware though that the hotel is relatively isolated in the island. At least a 20 minute bike ride from West and 15 minutes from Midsland.

Restaurant food was pretty standard (sorry but salsa verde is a very specific fresh/spicy sauce from Mexico, it's not a pesto sauce) and not happy with the price/quality analogy there at all, the hotel personeel was helpful but would appreciate a few more smiles!
Very spacious and clean rooms, especially the family suites, very comfortable matresses, great supply of towels, bathrobes, beach towels, fantastic location few minutes walking from the beach, nice breakfast buffet, dedicated play area with various toys for the kids

breakfast mostly poor , bad coffee and sweetened juices , eggs etc. standing in a bain marie , Bus service to and from the hotel , few and limited time slots , forcing us to use metered taxis which is costly. Rooms not serviced adequately , sloppy beds , and the rest of the apartment not cleaned at all.
good location for beaches , nice croissants

The swimming pool capacity is not adapted to the need. The hotel rooms are not taste of today - a bit pricy vs. the quality of room. The restaurant is average level.

Huge difference between rooms, where price is not adjusted properly. They applied a 35 / day charge for a 4 year old. They gave us the handicap room, which had a tiny balcony, so it was hot!
