Advantages: At least I wasn't spending my own money Disadvantages: Plenty - just book a proper hotel somewhere more sensible
The Dutch are famous for many things - cheese, clogs, a relaxed attitude to controlled substances and prostitution, little boys saving towns by sticking their fingers in dykes and of course the bulbfields. What they aren't famous for - and no wonder - is great hotels and hospitality. Of all the countries I travel to, Holland is one place where I can almost guarantee to be disappointed by a hotel - and the GoldenTulip in Zaandam really did live down to all my expectations.
Why was I there?
Oh I keep asking myself that. What fate sent me to such a god-forsaken down-market crappy Dutch hotel?

The GoldenTulip Accra Hotel is located just 2 km from Accra’s Kotoka International Airport and is commonly referred to as the “airport hotel”.

Advantages: Location, Good Deals Disadvantages: Over starred in my opinion
I booked a long weekend for myself and my girlfriend in Amsterdam Just before Christmas 2006. I had a look on laterooms.com (if you haven't used this site before, do it is excellent value) and found the GoldenTulip in Amsterdam offering us a room for 3 nights in their 4* hotel including breakfast for a little under 300 euros.
I was sold on the executive sounding nature of the rooms, its central location, traffic free area and of course the included breakfast.
We arrived at central stn a little early for our check in time of 2pm, probably somewhere near 11.30, but we turned up at the hotel anyway and asked to check in. The staff were very friendly, took our payment upfront (rather than on check out) and added on the 5% city tax for foreigners (keep this in mind). They were more than helpful in storing our bags for us and suggesting ...
