Petit Nord

Convenient location right in centre of Horn which is beautiful. Public parking adjacent. Just stayed 1 Saturday night while on way elsewhere. Room was cramped and bathroom was small and poky, but ok for 1 night. Friendly staff but was unable to get a meal in the in-house Chinese because we hadn't booked. Plenty of other restaurants around, however. Found Petit Nord expansive for what it is, but then Hoorn is a tourist trap even in November.

Nice, basic hotel. Good location. Very nice bathroom.

I have previously stayed at this hotel however it is the first time I have returned in a year. The hotel I am please to say continues to deliver. The check in was fast and efficient and the staff as always were very friendly. They all speak English, which was very helpful to us as we do not speak any Dutch! The rooms are spacious and the beds comfortable although they were a little soft for my liking and softer than I remember. There is a table and chairs as well as a desk so that you can do some work if you need to. The bathroom too was spacious and the shower was very good though I wish it had a mixer tap instead of having to try and guess how much of the hot water tap and how much of the cold water tap that you need. The shower is over the bath tub, The bathroom also had a his and hers sink which is a nice touch. The Wifi was poor this time and was very difficult to connect. A number of times it lost connection or would not connect at all. It was also slow at times and other times it was OK. It was not a problem before so may need looking at. The breakfast was good value for money with a good continental selection in a nicely done dining room. We also had dinner on the night we arrived and opted for the lobby area where there are dining tables and table service. There was a special offer on the hot stones steak and fish if you ate in this area instead of the main restaurant, which was very good value for money. The Creme Brulee was disappointing however.

Spent 3 nights at Hotel Petit Nord and from beginning to end, everything was brilliant. The staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them. The location of the hotel was perfect, only a couple of minutes walk from the train station and into the town centre. The room I was in was spacious and clean, with great facilities. The breakfast provided (for a surcharge) was good value and the adjoining Asian restaurant was excellent for an evening meal, although I only used it once.

Very nice hotel. Very accomodating staff especially when I thought breakfast ended at 1030 instead of 1000 when I came down but was still served. Unique elevator that took me bit to figure out (you have to open the door). Hope I have the opportunity to stay again.
