13th century castle just outside of Amsterdam

Once the home of the duck hunter, now used to explain how the nearby duck decoy once worked - the English word originates from the Dutch word “eendenkooi”. 

Still has a few ducks left, the lucky kind. The decoy is now in the middle of nature reserve Naardermeer.

The interior design of this TV and Radio museum clearly shows its aspiration to radiate a modern version of the gothic-cathedral aura.

This little town was so picturesque that I was busy too busy soaking it up rather than taking more pictures.

Would stay here again and again. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the room was spotless and the layout of the room felt very modern. Also a great location, around 10-15 minutes to Amsterdam Centraal from Spaklerweg on the metro which is less than a 5 minute walk away.

Absolutely loved this hotel. It was comfortable, quirky and provided a great sense of community for a weary traveller. My room was like an art instillation and I loved it. As a solo traveller it was great, but note the toilet and shower are in the middle of the room, so if you prefer your privacy ...

We stayed in the island lodge. The lodge itself is very nice, only downpoint of the actual lodge is lack of storage space in the kitchen. My biggest complaints about this place were 1. When making the booking it NEVER mentioned that the only way to access your lodge is via a small rowing boat. I ...

The room was clean, and housekeeping came daily to change the bed sheets. However, the lighting is not bright enough, and the water pressure is quite low, which makes it difficult to wash my hair. You have to pay €5 per person each day for the hotel shuttle bus to reach the airport train station, ...
