The seated area during breakfast with perfect view on the lake
The stairs is very tough for bags
De locatie. Kamer met zicht op het meer … maar veel te duur voor wat het was . Prijs boottocht en avondmaal werden ook niet op voorhand meegedeeld.
Prijs/kwaliteit. Boottocht aan 100 eur voor 2 personen. Veel lawaai ´s nachts door andere gasten.
-The lake and the view from my room -the location of the hotel
-old furniture -room cleaning
Highly recommended, beautiful historic property that has been tastefully and sympathetically restored. Very relaxing, lovely breakfast - great walking and cycling nearby.
Lovely little family run place, with a very comfortable room.
Emplacement exceptionnel. Très jolie maison d’époque
Alles was top! Ontbijt was goed, locatie is schitterend! De eigenaar wist een hoop van de omgeving. Ook bood de eigenaar aan om een stukje te gaan varen, hier hebben we uiteindelijk geen gebruik van gemaakt ivm andere plannen
Location favolosa in una struttura del 1600 ristrutturata alla perfezione. Zona comune bellissima vista lago, colazione molto buona, gentile e sorridente la signora che ci ha preparato e servito la colazione. Camera carinissima con un letto incassato nel muro che i bambini hanno adorato.
Beautifully restored 400 year old home. The view of the lake is exceptional! Breakfast was a treat each morning. Taking a bike ride around the village was a highlight of our trip to the Netherlands.
Love, love, love the historic charm. Didn’t love the carpet upstairs.
Beautiful setting near the lake

Breakfast was great
Unfortunately, our experience did not get off to a good start. Prior to arrival, we received messages through WhatsApp that appeared to be part of a phishing attempt, which made us concerned that the property’s Booking.com account may have been compromised. The check-in experience itself was also disappointing. The room was still being cleaned when we arrived, and the host entered the room while the cleaning was taking place. In addition, we observed the host speaking rather harshly to members of his staff, which made us feel uncomfortable and left a poor first impression of the property.
Prachtig plaatsje. Rustige, sfeervolle, authentieke omgeving
Tip: denk om de veiligheid! De wasmachine en vooral de droger, zonder toezicht aan kàn levensgevaarlijk zijn in een vooral houten huis
Het pand en de locatie
Mooie ligging, strak hotel, vriendelijk personeel, lekkere kamer en bedden en super lekker eten.
Everything. It was a great stay
Nothing
Het koffiemachine op de gang naast onze kamer
Het ontbijt was heel pover, de hygiëne, voor 945 euro voor drie nachten verwacht ik wel dat alles in orde is. Het was een echte teleurstelling. De prijs was veel te hoog voor deze accommodatie
Le cadre avec son calme et son charme en proximité de Volendam et de Marken
Absolutely beautiful accommodation is a quaint walkable/bike-able village.
Nothing
Location was excellent and breakfast was amazing. They also provided baby cot and bouncer. Parking was easily available.
1. We were charged full early check-in rate even when the room was fully ready when we arrived. This is not the norm. Early check in means if room is ready without extra effort then there should be no charge. 2. Stairs are too small for carrying suitcases. 3. There was a long insect found while sleeping on the pillows.
Charming place. Perfect Location
This place is beautiful and cosy. Highly recommend the dinner - it was absolutely outstanding.
The town was beautiful, very close to Amsterdam and the hosts were great
Beautiful position on side of lake, nicely presented. Good location for visiting many gorgeous villages. Dined at the hotel for 2 nights, the food was excellent & catered specifically to us. Excellent service & lovely attentive staff. We would love to visit again & would thoroughly recommend.
Steep stairs up to our room, but we knew about them & soon got used to them . Found the wine expensive by the glass & would rather have bought a bottle.
We felt at home and the location is amazing
The hotel is located in a fantastic historic building preserved in perfect condition. It is run by a great, very friendly family. I love the idea of self service bar and incredible breakfast served at the veranda with a lake view.
All was great!
That we couldn't stay longer!!
An outstanding place to stay with a fabulous historic house overlooking a beautiful lake canal in a wonderful quiet town near Amsterdam. Hosts Pamela and Garrol (sorry for wrong spelling) were so welcoming and lovely and the breakfast and dinner were superb. The stay here was a fabulous treat for us at the start of a European journey. Thank you for a memorable stay!

Such a lovely old house carefully renovated and beautifully decorated in the cutest village just 20 mins bus ride outside Amsterdam! Delicious breakfast served to the table on the porch facing the lake. Also would recommend eating dinner here, it was excellent!
Its a beautiful place at a beautiful location. We enjoyed one evening of delicious private dining. We will come back!
An exceptional stay, in an exceptional place! Superb hosts and so kind, they made us feel so welcome and they looked after my wife really well, she’s a coeliac and therefore needs a gluten free diet, which is not always easy. Pamela and her husband Karl, our hosts, kindly sourced different GF breads each day for both breakfast and dinner with both being soooo good and simply stunning evening dinners from ‘Tim at the table’ (Tim being the chef and our hosts son!). Tim’s food was absolutely amazing, stunning dishes, beautifully served and of all but Michelin star quality (honestly!). Truly delicious, Thank you one again Tim for all your hard work! The breakfasts were just wonderful each morning too! Do not hesitate to book a stay here, both the accommodation and view over the lake form our room were just gorgeous, the immediate area is so, so beautiful and well worth exploring, plus only 12mins to Amsterdam by taxi or take the bus, which is just a 5min walk at the end of the road, should you want to pop in and out of the city as we did. An amazing place and an amazing stay, with such lovely hosts!
Nothing.
Cozy, stylish, bohemian atmosphere, beauty all around
Not possible to have dinner without reservation in the village around
What an absolute gem!! The location is perfect and so is the service. Lots of attention to detail making us feel welcome. Breakfast is special and highly recommended.
None, but be careful for extremely steep and narrow staircase if you are assigned the red room.
Room very spacious, very nice breakfast
Scenic location Nicely renovated monastery Nice room
Poor duvet and mattress Breakfast substandard Audible house sounds in room above kitchen
The Inn is nestled in the middle of the small town of Broek in Waterland. We loved the atmosphere of the Inn, and the extra attention when checking in. The room is lovely and beautifully renovated with all the luxuries. The bed is also very big and comfy. Breakfast felt like a fine dining experience and we absolutely loved all the flavors and dishes that came out. Definately a great place to treat yourself for a weekend away.
The staircase leading to the rooms is very small and steep. Not a problem for us, but I can imagine that if you have difficulties walking/climbing stairs, it could be a real challenge.
Every thing,  the peaceful, tranquil and over environment.  The superb attention to details. Breakfast was amazing.
Very little that we didn’t like. The place exceeded expectations.
Pretty much everything! Our evening meal was brilliant- Tim catered with our dietary needs with total care and the food was fantastic.

I loved everything! The Inn is incredibly beautiful as was the village it's located in. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. I would highly recommend it and hope to stay there again.
Beautifully renovated old vicarage. Wonderful hosts & delicious breakfasts. The private local boat trip was a highlight of our holiday. Such a unique & special location.
Loved it all.
Excellent place to stay, perfect for a couple. Comfortable and classy rooms, and the hosts are incredibly nice and welcoming. Highly recommended
Nothing!
A beautiful location and the meal at the bistro in the local village was fantastic. We are treated as locals and our evening was very enjoyable. The location of the history of the building was very interesting and meeting the owners meant that we could better understand what had gone on in their progress to develop the Hotel.
Breakfast was very good however, we were unaware of what was coming for breakfast and that meant that we did not know how long we were having to wait. It would've assisted us to know what was on the menu and it might of helped to actually help ourselves. The lady serving was not the most communicative.
Everything. We couldn’t fault our stay. Such a gorgeous place, setting and staff. We were well looked after, using the bikes and the sauna. The breakfast was exceptional, we really enjoyed the different dishes each morning. The staff and family were very attentive and super welcoming. There were times we had the lounge area and what felt like the place to ourselves. It was perfect and tranquil but with easy access into the city.
Nothing.
Lovely location, cosy comfortable room. Superb breakfast.
Very narrow stairs upstairs, with luggage little bit uncomfortable.
absolutely everything, it’s location, it’s architecture, it’s comfort, breakfast and of course the staff and people that own it . A quiet beautiful oasis a 10 minute bus ride from busy Amsterdam.
nothing it was perfect !
Inn on the Lake is a gorgeous guest house in an idyllic location. The varied offerings at breakfast were lovely. The staff were helpful. The short bus ride to Amsterdam was very convenient.
Just one thing to be mindful of - the stairs to the first floor bedrooms are steep and narrow.
Great place! super clean and lovely stay. People working the front desk are so kind. Breakfast in the morning was delicious! Bus stop is a short walk, and leads right into Amsterdam central ❤️
nothing
Great place to stay - really comfortable bed and lovely decor. Very calming and relaxing place to stay with lovely setting right on lake. small village is picture perfect.
So beautiful, coffees in room the honest bar/fireplace. Breakfast was lovely and the view is such a lovely start to the day! Very happy to accommodate every need and super friendly.
Nothing it was great
Super cozy and warm atmosphere. Like being at home
beautiful place, great people and amazing food
Tim was a great host and the Inn was an amazing location by the Lake that was only 15 minutes from Amsterdam. A very cozy Personalised Breakfast according to your dietary and allergy requirements. Also you are able to book a private hot tub and sauna. Would definitely recommend.
Decoration, view and breakfast was amazing.
actually only one trasportation and little walk was enough to reach to otel from central train station. but unfourtanetly otel is not in the center and going to otel with luggages was dificult for us. except that everything was amazing.
beautiful room, great breakfast. perfect location.
Stunning location & lovely staff
Staircase is tiny so best take small bags
Our hosts Pamela and Rachel really made our stay what it was! They were the kindest, most thoughtful and went out of their way to make sure we made the most of our stay there since it was just for a single night. The property was stunning, it’s got multiple spots to lounge and relax- in the common areas indoors as well as out by the lake and even the rooms were spacious, comfortable and well equipped. I even rented a bike for the day to explore the rest of Broek in Waterland and I must add, the towns around are lovely as well!
There was absolutely nothing to not like
The location, staff, breakfast and the rooms. Great bikes to rent.

非常好的家庭小旅馆,感受了一会地道荷兰家庭生活,赞!
Absolutely charming, it exceeded our expectations!
simplesmente maravilho .....
Man those stairs to get to the room are something else especially with heavy luggage
Liebe Gastgeber es war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt in Ihrem tollen Gästehaus am See. Oft sind die Bilder besser als die Wirklichkeit, bei Ihnen ist es noch viel schöner als auf den Bildern zu sehen ist. Wir wurden bestens versorgt und haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Eine tolle Bootstour mit dem Chef durch die bezaubernde Umgebung wird uns für immer in Erinnerung bleiben. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder !!! Liebe Grüße Astrid und Roland
My first experience in this bed and breakfast on early 2017 was very good, so much that I planned to take my daughter with me during summer time, which I just did. This time, the way we were treated was bad: - Were not informed on the check out time (11 AM) and were charged 50 euros for late check out at 2 PM - Our stuff was dumped into a basket and placed it . out of the room - The way the staff approached us was rude. Will never return and will take back recommendations I gave to friends about this place.
Das Frühstück war im Wintergarten mit Blick auf den wunderschönen See. Das Hotel hat einen unvergleichlichen Charme. Das Haus selbst ist 400 Jahre alt und von sehr lieben Gastgebern geführt. Die Gegend lädt zum entspannen und Sonne tanken ein. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Wir haben leider verschwitzt ein Abenddinner zu buchen das soll sensationell sein. Aber dann beim nächsten mal. Wir wollten gar nicht nach Hause :)
Just what I was looking for. Quiet, peaceful, very scenic located in an iconic village 20 min from Amsterdam. The room is fantastic and the service was way above my expectations. The food is phenomenal; prepared with passion and love. I will come back on summer time!
This house is georgeous but fails to be 5 stars as the windows do not open properly and insect screens need to be fitted to the inside FULLY so we can really get air in the Taupe room but we nred protection fRom mosquitos a we got stung several times. It needs at least a ceiling fan too as the room gets very hot and in the summer ir Indian summer like we just had in September 2016, we could only get two small openings open and at night it spoilt our sleep as we were sweating so much in bed. The host Pamela is very willing and helpful so you get plenty of assistance. The staff were very helpful too. We were very dissapointed that there was not even a small safe in the room - this was a big error by the owners as we were travelling a long time and needed to put many documents away but in our own room safe. Not good. Public transport to get to Amsterdam is brilliant well done the Dutch - you really excel at this. In the centre of the village is a double electric charging point for electric cars - again excellent! Used my "NEW IN MOTION" charge card there. Nearby is the 3 music notes bar. Excellent place with great atmosphere and really nice food and the owner and staff and even the customers are so friendly. Talking if which, even 9n the buses, people in this lovely part on Holland are so friendly and helpful and nearly all speak English. A few minor points that the owners must improve and get a better rating for there establishment but you must visit this fantastic area!
Que du bonheur - petit déjeuner fantastique
visited following a friends' suggestion. extremely relaxing and great possibility for moving around if you so wish. having Chef Timothy taking care of us was an additional bonus
I really enjoyed my stay at Inn on the Lake. We arrived early in the morning and Pamela gave us a very warm reception, stored our luggage for us and set us up with bus tickets and an itinerary to explore the nearby towns of Volendam and Edam - this helped us with our jetlag (as we had come from Australia and Singapore) and gave us a beautiful introduction to Broeke, rather than get caught up in the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam city. The breakfasts were wonderful - I highly recommend the Pamela egg :) and the view of Napoleon's tea house from the breakfast room was gorgeous. After breakfast, take a walk around the town of Broeke - the town is so pretty, the houses look like dollhouses and the lake so soothing. We were lucky to be in Amsterdam for King Day so we got to celebrate with the locals - they invited us to sing the Anthem in the church next door and we got to watch the children play musical instruments and sell/recycle toys, clothes and books they have outgrown. And the whole of Amsterdam seemed to be dressed in orange!
Romantic Hide-Away im Norden Hollands; weniger geeignet für Stadt- als für Land-Reisende; sehr steile Treppen im denkmalgeschützten Gebäude; wunderschöne Umgebung; persönliche Betreuung
