Great stay during Ironman 2025

Pros: We stayed here for Ironman on June 22, 2025, and had a great experience. The hotel feels quite new and modern, with clean, comfortable rooms and a beautiful property overall. The bathtub in the bathroom was a real highlight — absolutely amazing after a long day! The staff arranged a special transfer on race day (just €6), and even served breakfast at 5 AM — such a thoughtful touch. Kids also received a small welcome kit, which was lovely.

Cons: The only downside is the location. While everything is relatively close, it's about an 18–20 minute walk to the main train station. A taxi ride costs around €12–15. Not a big deal, but after a long day on your feet, you definitely feel the distance.

Great staff and facilities, be aware of heat wave days when staying here.

Pros: The hotel was great. Super good facilities, they had nice services and were well prepared to help Ironman participants, the staff was really great and friendly. On the ironman day , they had a super nice Ironman type of breakfast ready at 5am for everybody and a shuttle to take Ironman participants to the Transition/Swim start area. Windows were really good to isolate the sound for the highway in front of the hotel, but it was impressive how noise could travell to the 12th floor if they were open. I would stay here once again, but I would be aware of higher temperature days.

Cons: I was in the hotel for the Ironman 70.3 Westfriesland. I know heat could be high given the time of the year, so I made sure to book the hotel in advance as in my experience most of the hotels have a nice air conditioning system, so I could be well rested for the next day. But not this one, the first day was to warm at the room and I came to know they dont really have an Airco, but more of a fan system. Result first night I could only sleep 4 hours, next night I go a fan with a friend who lived close by and it did help, but I was disappointed with that. ( I am a person who I believe has higher temperature).

Pros: The breakfast is always good , hit I think it’s a little expensive for children

Cons: The choice for British people is very poor
