Vakantiedomein Hoge Duin

hotel was good but too hot. cut the trip short cause couldn't deal with the heat

heat

Great facilities for children

Basic rooms but that’s understandable as it a budget simple hotel

Basic, but comfortable and convenient. Very good value for money. Good base for exploring Belgium

Some of the lights weren’t working in main areas and there were exposed wires.

Location, many beds and clean bath room.

Everything was good. I did not like noisy and loudly speaking guests next door, but it's not related with the property.

Very well located, short walk to the beach and the boulevard. Although we went in August, it was quite peaceful. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Love the concept of the selfservice for the drinks!

For the price we paid it is not very luxurious, but it has all you need. We were not informed that for the airconditioning unit a remote is needed and needs to be ordered with the reception. 16 euros for the breakfast is far too expensive.

The hotel is well suited for children with its large playground. The room was very spacious and all facilities were very clean. There is a free parking but places get taken fast on busy days. The location is good - a 10 minute walk to the beach. The hotel staff was friendly and polite.

I hadn’t realised that the hotel is in fact a youth hostel used for summer camps. It was full of groups of kids but we didn’t have much trouble with noise. There is waterproof protection on the mattresses and even the pillows which I don’t find comfortable, especially in the summer. There was no mosquito net. The light in the bathroom and in the toilet switches on automatically and switches off also automatically but only after several minutes, not very practical at night.

Size of rooms.

No kettle in room. Slow lift.

Close to beach and local transport.Room cosy, but sometimes too hot. Games available free to play.Buffet meals had a good selection to choose from.

Lack of tea/ coffee making facilities in room. No access to fresh milk for tea in honesty bar. Insufficient parking at busy times. No prior warning that a large group was in attendance and noisy late at night.

Friendliness and helpfulness of the staf.Very clean and modern bathroom.Very warm water.Good value for money.

Nearly no parking space. Very small beds. No fridge on the room.

Breakfast was sufficient. There is playground with sand, there are “cars” to put your stuff in and go to the beach, bicycle can be rented. Dinner can be take at bordering hotel except on Sunday. Amenities are basic but good for family.

No desk light in case parents want to work when children sleep. Also Honesty bar is closed at 10pm.

The location, the self-bar, the staff, the room size, the bathroom.

That we could not take the table we wished to have for breakfast. They are allocated in advance.The twin beds are too narrow.The walls are too thin, we could hear the other guests talk.

Clean, comfortable

Noses on the playground started at 7am!

Excelente location, walking distance to the beach. Very good breakfast, and friendly staff.The bedding is white and clean.

I booked a family room with a double bed, but the 'double bed' was in reality two single beds put together. I know this can be quite commons, but the problem is that each single bed had a thick wooden frame around the mattress, so the two single beds are never closed next to each other, instead, the 'double bed' has a 10 cm gap alongside the middle of the bed, where the hard wood is. This should be mentioned in the description of the beds, if I knew this in advance I wouldn't have booked this hotel.The shower curtain needs to be changed. It was very old and dirty at the bottom.

Near to beach.

I didn’t like that some person with dogs make for their pets toilet, in kids playground. It should be somehow monitored. How kids can play if dog pissed on the slides, and owner didn’t react.

The kids enjoyed the stay. It's convenient as it's close to the beach, just a few minutes walk, clean and friendly. Overall, it's a nice place to stay.

It's a very quirky place, somewhere between a hostel, leisure centre and outwards bounds centre, rooms are large and functional.Our youngest daughter loved the sandpit play area and also the Easter egg hunt.Location was great, only 10 minutes walk to the sea front.

Showers had little control over the flow and temperature.

The rooms were large, clean with comfy beds.

Kids enjoyed bunk beds. Room was very spacious. Bathroom was nice and very clean.

There was quite a bit of street noise in the room. Reception was closed when were arrived. Room key was left on the counter in the envelope with my surname on it. All matrasses were too hard for our personal liking.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was basic but clean and adequate for us. The buffet breakfast was plentiful and the chef very friendly and accommodating.

Another plug socket or USB port would have been helpful.

It was clean.

This facility is similar to that of a prison or an army barracks or an immigranten opvang. It has a block A and a block B. You go though several door and corridors to end up in your cell. Inside it is beyond bare. It is stripped down to only what sustains life. There is NO WIFI. Rough grey bare concrete walls. No plants or pictures. Army cots to sleep on. No colour except the carpet. Small tv up in the corner under the ceiling. Interior temp preset you cant change or personalise it. Shower cannot be adjusted. Water temp is set!!! You have no choice. Set in a timer. Depersonalised. Grey. Functional. Depressing. Just like a prison. The outrage is that they dare lie that this is a "vakantiedomein". Imagine spending your holiday in such uninspiring unimaginative grim surroundings! This place is the opposite. They have a major problem and need to change everything to make it a real holiday destination. The attitude is very wrong. Bring in warmth. Make people feel welcome. Make the surroundings cheerful and interesting. And lastly; E 15 for a pet?? Seriously? Nowhere else is it this pricey. And lastly..it is nowhere close to a beach. Why go? Never again.
