Golden Tulip Drenthe, Zeegse

Advantages: Comfortable, Conveniently located, All necessary facilities
Disadvantages: Some may find it a bit expensive

...Many of you who might have read some of my previous opinions will be aware that I travel to West Africa quite frequently and one of the destinations that I visit most is Accra in Ghana. When travelling to Africa in general one of the most important decisions you must make is the hotel that you intend to stay in. You need a place that provides you with comfortable rooms, clean food and water, entertainment and security. My hotel of choice is the Golden Tulip Accra Hotel. This hotel is part of the Golden Tulip chain of hotels. Golden Tulip hotels enjoy a high reputation throughout the world. More on the Golden Tulip chain later in this opinion. The Golden Tulip Accra Hotel is located just 2 km from Accra’s Kotoka International Airport and is commonly referred to as the “airport hotel”. Most major... Read review

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 Golden Tulip 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? On the plus side, it's only for one night but on the down side, surely somebody could have found something better than this. I work for a company that's in the midst of divorcing its separate parts in a messy but fairly civilised way. Some... Read review

...I chose to take my boyfriend to Amsterdam for his 21st birthday but all the hotels in the City Centre that were in my price range had awful reviews, then i came across the Golden Tulip in Zanndam. Although it is not in the city centre it is so easy to get there from this lovely hotel it's worth the extra journey to stay in a much nicer hotel. The train station is right next to the hotel (although there is no noise) and it is only 2-3 Euros return. We used to go out in the morning, come back late afternoon and then head back out in the evening and never found it a problem catching the train. It was also very easy to catch the train from the airport to the hotel. The staff at the hotel are lovely and the room very clean and in a very nice condition. Because we saved so much money not staying in the city centre we were able to stay... Read review
