RiverSide Suite - Haarlem City Centre

Wonderful location just on the river with a GREAT view of the Windmill! On the quieter side of town which was nice. Only 7 minutes walk to Grote Market. Monique is the consummate hostess! Met us at the door, helped with our luggage, and brought us homemade lemonade and a cinnamon and raisin danish! She had drinks in the fridge for us and left us nice notes as we came and went! Would HIGHLY recommend this place for anyone traveling to Haarlem!

All was great, but do know that the stairs are steep and narrow, but Monique helped with the luggage so it wasn't a problem!

Monique was an amazing host. The special little things at check in and check out but us feel a little spoilt The apartment was perfect for our stay in an amazing location

Traumhafte Einrichtung. Die Gastgeberin ist Innenarchitektin und die Tiefe Liebe zum Detail ist spürbar. Das Frühstück ist sensationell, individuell und liebevoll gemacht. Lage direkt gegenüber der berühmten Windmühle, Innenstadt fußläufig 10min. entfernt. Parktipps von der Gastgeberin geben lassen - wir konnten 10min. entfernt kostenlos parken

Wonderful location with great views, a nice deck of the back, and near town center. Also the host is great! She met us as soon as we arrived, was friendly and attentive, and gave lots of recommendations, and left a welcome treat and something out for our last night too.

Location to windmill and Zuidam Restaurant Kind hostess Interesting decorating!

Monique welcomed us upon arrival with cold beverages and snacks. The room was fully equipped with everything we would need for our stay. The bathroom had lots of towels and amenities and the kitchenette had all the essentials. The bed was very comfortable with extra pillows provided. The back deck was lovely to relax on. The location was perfect, close proximity to everything and a short walk to the train station. We could not have asked for a better experience. We even received a sweet treat on our departure.

Everything was perfect!

The view and location were perfect. The studio was well furnished and designed. And the host was wonderful. The perfect place to stay in Haarlem!

Liked it all! Limited cooking facilities, which was fine with me. So, not a problem!

River Side is a perfect spot to stay in Haarlem! Monique is an amazing and attentive host. Place itself is very carefuly decorated, beautiful views, and a terrace for your breakfast. Everything needed is there, coffee maker (with decaf option as well!), fridge, not mentionig the "usuals" comfy bed, quiet neighborhood. Everything is walking distance. Highly recommended for stay in Haarlem. Thank you Monique!

In een woord: fantastisch!

Het was mooi licht en dicht bij leuke activiteiten

Niks wat mij niet beviel, het was top!

The room was lovely and the host gave us a drink and biscuits/chocolates on arrival. There was also fruit, water, beer and wine provided free of charge.

The only thing I would change were the steep windy stairs up to the room.

Прекрасное расположение, чудесный вид из окна, удобный матрас, продуманный до мелочей интерьер, трогательная гостеприимность и забота Моники, великолепные завтраки! Мы с моей женой в полном восторге.

Для нас это не было проблемой, но для людей менее подготовленных и с более тяжёлыми чемоданами узкая лестница на второй этаж может быть проблемой. Впрочем, Моника готова помочь, если нужно.

We stayed at the RiverSIde Suite for 8 wonderful nights and LOVED it. Monique is an exemplary host! She is kind, helpful and always available for any type of question. She even helped with our luggage up and down the stairs. The studio was super clean, comfortable and cozy for our stay in December. The bed was comfy with choice of pillows. The little kitchen area is thoughtfully laid out and easy to use. Great for pizza, sandwiches and breakfast in (since we had yoghurt and granola we did not opt for the prepared breakfast Monique would provide for an additional fee). The bathroom is lovely and warm with a register in it for heat. Great easy to use European shower with endless hot water The view from the front and back is delightful. Noise was not an issue at all. The location of the studio/suite is phenomenal. About a 7min walk to Haarlem Centraal train station where we enjoyed day trips to Amsterdam (15 min ride and so easy), den Haag (Maurithuis), Leiden (University town) and den Bosch (Hieronymus Bosch’s hometown!). Spent 2 days in lovely Haarlem. Great museums, St. Bavo and far from the Amsterdam crowds. Lovely shops that are not tourist traps. When we come back to the Netherlands we would definitely want to stay here and use this special place as a launchpad to see more of the Netherlands.

We loved it! Stairs steep but would not trade staying here with staying in a big hotel with big steps. No way.

Monique was very kind and her place was magical. We did’t want to leave and we definitely will be back.

Nothing! At first I thought there might be noise from the street, but no, it was very quiet. Haarlem is lovely and very calm place.

Calme, beau, accueillant, décoration exquise, très bien équipé, terrasse, vue sur le canal, frigo avec des boissons, bonbons et chocolats de bienvenue, lit confortable, hôte très sympa

Rien! On a tout adoré!

We came with our 6 month old baby and will definitely be back. Excellent location, Monique was a stand out host with a real eye for detail. There were so many beautiful and thoughtful touches, like drinks in the fridge, fresh fruit and tea on arrival. She made our stay very comfortable and easy. Also wonderful to get a taste of an old Dutch building with historic features.

Great location, amazing views, very comfortable bed and bedding, spacious and modern shower. We loved the place. Very unique and charming. Little kitchenette to prepare a meal if needed. Lots of dishes and glassware. Everything designed with such a unique touch. Excellent recommendations from the host about different restaurants and things to do. Monique was prompt with communication and very hospitable. We loved it and highly recommend. Haarlem has so much to offer!

Stairs are quite steep!

Superplekje

Ruimtelijk opgezet, goede locatie. Heerlijk eten.

Die RiverSide Suite ist wunderschön eingerichtet, man kann dem Trubel der Stadt sehr gut entfliehen und man ist jederzeit schnell wieder im Zentrum. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Wunderschöne Unterkunft, tolle Lage

Great location, clean, eclectic style and we loved the added extras of food and drink.

The host Monique is the best! Such a warm welcome with drinks and snacks. Loved the view, the balcony, the decor, and the location. Haarlem is a quaint town with a calm peaceful vibe. Loved our stay here and highly recommend Riverside Suite! 10/10

Just be forewarned that stairs are steep but Monique helped us with bags so no problem!

Cadre idéal Hôte très accueillante

Rien à dire

Dies war unser dritter Aufenthalt in Haarlem und es war die beste Unterkunft die wir bisher dort hatten. Angefangen bei dem tollen Empfang bei der Schlüsselübergabe, über den liebevollen Willkommensgruß der unfassbar gastfreundlichen Vermieterin, die Lage mit herrlichem Blick auf die Windmühle, die geschmackvolle Einrichtung, die Größe des Zimmers, den idyllischen Balkon, die Lage und und und…

Very welcoming host and fantastic location.. We look forward to returning.

Nothing - all excellent !

We loved the beautiful creative decor ,airy room with balcony, the view, the hospitality and the personal touches from the host. The location is excellent and walking distance from bus station.

Nothing

Beautiful location, very creative decor and unique design, very clean and spacious. Very kind, friendly and generous host.

Very steep stairs

Super Lage, Location, Ausstattung

Exceptional host Monique very welcoming and helpful, room was large drinks in the fridge and snacks in cupboard

The only downside I'd say is the stairs to get to your room are steep and narrow, we managed ok but would be a struggle for anyone not good on there feet.

This place is in a wonderful location, a short walk to old town and the area where we wanted to explore and right on a canal with a view of a working windmill and activity in Haarlem. Monique went out of her way to let us know about events in the area as well as to assist in other ways. The breakfast was superb, and plenty for two days for us.

Riverside Suite had everything we needed and provided those things at a level of high quality. The only suggestion I would make is perhaps to have a bit brighter lighting available in the sitting area. It was perfect during the day, but a bit dim at night - on the romantic, cozy side, but a little bit of a challenge if trying to read.

Great apartment with a fantastic view. Monique was lovely and super helpful!

Amazing location. Monique the host was AMAZING, she made the best breakfast. This place was perfect.

Nothing!

Great location overlooking the river with a windmill opposite. Very picturesque. 10 mins from the rail station and from Haarlem it's 20 mins by rail into Amsterdam. So nice to be away from the bustle of the city. Lovely host who was extremely thoughtful and kind. The perfect room with everything we needed and so much more. Strong recommend.

It was fine for us but if you struggle with steep, narrow stairs, you would need to reconsider staying here. This is completely normal for many Dutch properties.

Great location - near the train station and near the city center. Also close to restaurants and shopping and attractions

The stairs are steep - wasn’t a problem for us, but it might be for some

It’s beautifully furnished with a wonderful private terrace. Stunning view and minutes from centre. The Host is amazing, v friendly and helpful and v respectful of privacy. Everything you could want for a perfect break in this amazing town.

Nothing!

The suite was even more exquisite in person. The host was charming and provided thoughtful information and discrete communication during our stay. The bed was not too soft, not too hard - just right. The location was about a ten minute walk to the Grote Markt area with lots of restaurants and shopping.

The one flight of stairs is steep! Not for anyone with unsteady legs.

Wonderful hostess, great location with superb riverside view. Close to the city center yet very quiet too.

The breakfast was fantastic and the views out the window were really lovely. Great spot.

Monique cares a great deal about her guests and made us feel welcome. We had everything we needed during our stay and enjoyed the view, the kitchenette to cook meals and the comfortable bed. We would highly recommend! :)

We had a wonderful time! Had a great view from our window of the Adriaan windmill and canal. Always something to see. Very easy to walk to the Grote Markt where there is a fantastic Saturday market, and numerous restaurants. It was easy to book day excursions on the GettheGuide app, for in the city or to different places.

This was an amazing bed and breakfast and Monique our host was just wonderful! She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and provided so many great recommendations we ate at two of her restaurant recommendations and they were a 10/10! We also rode bikes to the beach per her recommendation and it was the best day of the whole trip! We got the breakfast service she provided one of the mornings and it was the best breakfast I've ever had staying at a B&B / hotel!! It was so much food and we ate on it from breakfast, lunch and an after dinner snack! The room itself was super cool and the bed was beautiful and comfortable. The view of the windmill was surreal and I just can't say enough good things about our host and the space. Great location too!!

Nothing

The location was wonderful. The host was very friendly and so thoughtful. The view from the room exceeded my expectations. The Suite was very well decorated. It was the absolute cutest place we stayed on our vacation.

Only negative was the pillows could have been a bit more comfortable and it was hard to get our largest piece of luggage up the steep stairway. That being said, we would still absolutely stay there again.

Monique’s creative personable touch, with little surprise delights along the way, is simply priceless. Makes your heart leap with joy and gratitude to be appreciated this much. Just wow. Thank you, Monique! Property is located nearly across the street from the police station. As a solo traveler, I felt super safe! Despite being at the heart of Haarlem, it was wonderfully quiet and serene. Super bonus that it’s only 13 min walk to the bus & train station! Don’t underestimate the shower - it is so very pleasant!! Nothing like an amazing long hot shower on a chilly day! Also don’t let the stairs scare you! Steep and narrow as they are, I got my monster suitcase up (thanks to Monique’s help!), and getting it back down was a breeze! I have so much more to explore here and can’t wait to be back!

We loved our stay here, we wish it was longer. The suite is beautiful, well furnished. Comfortable bed, nice view of the canal and windmill. Portacot was provided for our baby. There’s no kitchen, but still has everything you’d need if you wanted to prepare your own food (utensils, hot plate, microwave etc.) The breakfast was amazing!! €14 each, but a beautiful spread of fresh food. Definitely recommend. It’s a very short walk to the centre of Haarlem, such a good location.

The Riverside Suite is spacious with a great view over a canal with a windmill. Easy walk to town with lots of places to explore, eat, drink and shop. The train station is close by for a quick 15 minute ride into Amsterdam. Monique is very friendly & an excellent host with lots of thoughtful touches and was flexible with our travel arrangements. Haarlem is a beautiful town and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Location in Haarlem was perfect. Apartment was beautifully decorated. Monique was so welcoming and generous. View was gorgeous. Private outdoor area.

Dutch stairs but that’s the way it is.

Absolutely loved everything, host was amazing with lots of kind litte gestures which were really appreciated

Having to leave

Monique greeted us with a warm welcome and a lovely refreshing cold beer. The accommodation was delightfully furnished with Monique’s design style throughout. Lovely view of the windmill and water to the front and a private sunny balcony at the back. Very close to the town centre and the train station.

Wonderful welcome from Monique! Perfect location. Loved having the balcony for morning coffees. Coffee, tea, juice, shampoo, handwash were all available.

There is no lock on the door to the apartment.

what a wonderful, lovely appartment. It has all you need, is in a perfect location, has a nice view.

Everything, the attention to detail was so impressive. Very comfortable bed with an amazing view!! will not disappoint!

nothing

very cosy apartment in cold weather, heating quick to heat up, very welcoming generous host. Bed was very comfortable. Spacious terrace to the rear, lovely view out the front of the flat, good shower.

Sink could have had a draining board, a flip up type could be added, given restricted space available. Would have preferred to have a lockable door to the flat. we had a key to the front door but I think most travellers would also want a lock on the flat door. Some of the space had only a long seat in it; suggest that Monique could do more with that space ? But there was plenty space apart from that.

Thé host was very friendly and welcoming, even offered a beverage upon arrival and good recommendation to local restaurants. The decor was very unique and beautiful, kind of a boho vibe. The many thoughtful touches made our stay in Haarlem wonderful, we were able to walk to the stunning town square and to other attraction easily! 5 stars!

The decor was incredible, cleverly made use of the space. The host is incredible, wonderful service. Bountiful breakfast brought to the door. Location is within 10 minute walk to old town. Haarlem is beautiful. Looking out the window every morning and night at the windmill and canal.

Nada

The location was beautiful and close to all the sites you’d want to see.

everything was perfect

very comfortable and well located. Equiped with everything we needed for our stay

Pity the front windows didn't open given that it was over 30degrees outside

The apartment is very tastefully and individually decorated and about 10 minutes walk from the train station. The view of the windmill is fantastic and the casual terrace in the backyard offers evening sun.

Could not be better!
