Kijkduin Vacations from $1,340

Its dated.. needs a good refurbishment to bring it up to date

Staying at this hotel was an incredible and unique experience! The way the old prison has been transformed into a modern hotel is absolutely brilliant. The historic atmosphere is preserved perfectly, and the clean rooms are very comfortable. The staff is clearly understaffed and overwhelmed with duties, but they work incredibly hard and do their absolute best to keep the atmosphere and everything else perfect. Both the breakfast and parking options were excellent. Highly recommended!

I’m over 70 female travelling alone. The first room they put me in was in the back of the hotel on the ground floor, very dark. There was a tiny patio with vegetation growing up the sandy hill right outside the door. I did not feel safe. After some upset they moved me to a room on the first floor with a balcony. However this room had a lock that didn’t work and the door to the outside was propped open all the time. I did not feel safer, however I made the best of it and I used a chair against the door as a lock. This hotel did not have Kleenex, napkins, shampoo, conditioner or body lotion in the room. After 3 days I asked for a clean sheet to be put on my bed. I don’t believe they would have changed the sheets for six days if I had not directly asked. The location of this hotel is fantastic. The breakfast buffet is excellent. The bar is very nice too. Overall this was not a great stay and not a place I would ever want to return to.
