Boutique Hotel de Smulpot

Fabulous hotel in Den Burg. Friendly, helpful staff. Great room with comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast included in the rate. I also had lunch( toastie) and dinner( Texel asparagus) and all were great and large servings. Wish I could have stayed longer.

Every once in a while you stay at a hotel that is so incredibly nice that you hesitate to write an honest review of it, for fear that it will be "discovered." The Smulpot is such a place, but I'm going to risk "discovery" to provide this review. The Smulpot is a tremendous value. We were welcomed by "Nancy," one os the owners. She did everything she could to meet all of our needs, always with a smile and great enthusiasm. Our room, which looked out on the street, was large by Dutch standards and furnished with everything we needed. Wifi connected quickly and worked well throughout our stay. The hotel is located right in the heart of Den Burg, with lots of restaurant and shopping options nearby. The hotel also operates its own restaurant, which was clearly popular with the locals and served great food. The complimentary breakfast was superb, with guests having an individual table loaded with food specially set up for just for them. The hotel is also a quick five-minute walk from the island transit bus, which provides service to the ferry to the mainland. Our room was on the third floor. The hotel has no elevator, but hotel staff offered to carry our luggage to and from the room. The hotel is located across the street from an historic church. The church bells chime on the hour and half hour throughout the night, but we quickly go used to that. This hotel was one of four we stayed at during our Dutch vacation. It was both the best in terms of quality and the cheapest in terms of price, thus a great value. We would be happy to stay there again.

Superb stay I stayed here with a group of 8 friends on a cycling tour of The Netherlands. This was the favourite hotel of everyone. From the moment we arrived until the time of our departure we really felt like guests in someone's home. Nancy and her team did a fantastic job of making us feel welcome. The hotel was spotless, the service excellent, and the breakfast exceptional. I can high recommend.
