Alexander Hotel

“Classy and deserves 5*”

Not sure how this hotel only gets 4 stars. It may be because it doesn't offer room service, or that the rooms only have a shower, but it thoroughly deserves 5* as it is better than many 5* hotels I have used before.

Not sure how this hotel only gets 4 stars. It may be because it doesn't offer room service, or that the rooms only have a shower, but it thoroughly deserves 5* as it is better than many 5* hotels I have used before. It is a short walk from the sea front and beach at Noordwijk aan Zee, which is a lovely little Dutch resort on the coast close to Leiden. The hotel has superbly-decorated and equipped rooms; the staff are lovely; the food impeccable. The car park is a little expensive at €17 a night, but the bus to Leiden (number 20 or 23) leaves from right in front and it costs only a couple of pounds with a tap and go system. The Hague or Schiphol Airport are also right there if you choose not to drive. and bicycles are available via reception (e-bikes too), and a health centre and swimming pool are free to use in the building next door. The restaurant is Dylan's, a little expensive, but very good. The hotel has its own Beach Club right on the sands, which is also a little expensive, but as you might expect from a bar with food on the beach that has been occupied by sunbathers all day, it is very relaxed. The Alexander was a superb base for our week-long holiday on the Dutch coast and I can enthusiastically recommend it.
