The accommodation was very well presented and the staff at this hotel are exceptionally helpful and friendly. It's a pleasantly informal service but extremely efficient; a difficult balance to achieve and this hotel does that.

Absolutely awesome. Great layout, 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. Much bigger than expected. 5 minutes walk to beautiful dunes. 5 minutes walk to shopping centre. 5-10 minutes drive to unbelievable beaches, Texel transport, fortress and lighthouse, navy museum Den Helder, 1h to Amsterdam. Very quiet place, surprisingly. ! Excelent beds. Another name for relax:)
I liked the part of the city I managed to see. The reason I came, was because of the Tall Ship Race, so there were a lot of visitors and much of my time was spent related to the Tall Ship Race. I would like to come back to visit when it's a bit more quiet to see the town and surrounding areas.

The city is not as beautiful as the rest of the Netherlands, but it is a port city, probably because of that. It is worth staying here because you can easily get to Texel by ferry from here. Our accommodation was not in the city center, but close to the forest and the sea, in a perfect location for nature lovers. It’s worth checking out the Navy Museum (Marine Museum), not all of which were equally interesting, but the submarine, the ships, the mock-ups and some of the paintings are very special.

Just a business trip to the Marine Base for a couple of days. Luckily we saw the Lighting Festival here in Den Helder which was AMAZING. Cosy town but nothing special. Visit the restaurants near the West Street / Navy museum!

Amazing city in North of Holland.
Amazing city in North of Holland.
Super nice for a week-end getaway (although too short in my opinion) or a week vacation. Tons to do: bike rides, markets, beaches, walks in the dune. A lot of nice restaurants.
A lot of tourists in the summer though. Would recommend off season.

Totally underrated. It has such bad reputation, but I would strongly recommend that if you want to visit Texel, better stay in den Helder. Less touristy, incredibly friendly people and a great place to eat out.

This is a bucolic seaside town with a lot of history and personality. There was much more to see than we had time to do. It has the top-rated library in the world, in a beautifully restored old building.
Amazing location,
Beautiful view!
Loved the easy responses via e mail....
Close by to dunes with amazing views.
Taking the ferry ...by bike if your alone is worth the price...cheaper...great way to visit lically as well as for exercices.
In Texel...I recommend to bike to Oudeschild,
And visit the marina area as well as a Fort if you like along the way.
Beautiful seaside views...and from Den Helder dunes...amazing walkway above dunes or by the water...great to feel the wind and be by the ocean waves... not to forget sunset!
Everything was perfect! We are well travelled and demanding but this place surpassed all expectations considering it is a 3 star BnB at a very reasonable price. We spent 3 nights in this haven! The hosts were incredibly attentive and so kind. Our room was very spacious and everything was very high quality. Location is fantastic as it is a little outside from downtown Den Helder but easily accessible by bike (or by foot (4km)) and 10 minutes by foot to the sea and a selection of restaurants. Finally, the breakfast was off the charts!
The bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly, especially the guys at breakfast. I was staying with my three year old and they were very sweet to her. I'd say the hotel was fine and I'd definitely stay again for a cheaper price. Excellent location for quiet walks on the beach, and beautiful sunsets. But... For the price we paid (almost 200 euro) it wasn't really anything special. Just totally fine.
Olga is super sweet and sociable, it was a real delight to talk to her and get advices for Den Helder. Olga also left some food and drinks on my fridge as I arrived after midnight. The care Olga has with her guests, as her sympathy, are priceless! The cottage is super confortable, fully equiped and confortable, decorated with great taste. I totally reccommend staying over :D
The hotel is located in a nice little town perfect for tulip hunting. The hotel itself is very charming and has a lot of character to it. The owners also stay in the same building and are great hosts. The breakfast spread was excellent and the hosts took care of the arrangements personally.
Like going back to the 1970’s
The rooms were clean and comfortable
However the rest of the hotel was something out of 1972
Parking was great
But the price was totally unrealistic
For €50 pet night I would have given this a good review
For €140 then sorry this was poor value for money
The hotel is right next to the harbour, which was great for us because we were focusing on excursions in Texel.
The room had a nice view of the habour and also had a very good restaurant with fantastic terrace with sea view. The front desk was very helpful and nice.
The staff of the hotel was very friendly, attentive and helpful. The room was nice and big with a view over the main square. The breakfast was tasty with enough options to cover all tastes. The location is very central, near the train station and the ferry terminal.
Very accommodating, they asked when I wanted breakfast which was very nice in case if I slept in, the owner’s daughter checked me in and was very professional. The room was also very nice with a great view. My first stay in Europe was great due to the hotel.
absolute darling little 2-story apartment in Den Helder. beautiful marine decor makes this a cozy apartment. the stairs are very narrow and the apartment starts on the first story and the 2d bedroom is on the spacious attic (2 twin beds).
I was upgraded to an apartment at no additional cost. The staff always go out of their way to accommodate you & make your stay most enjoyable. The Forest Hotel is always my first choice when staying in Den Helder
Nice hotel that is in two refurbished houses. Shopping just around the corner and the ferry to Texel on walking distance. Nice restaurants just across the street. Almost no traffic after 20:00
Absolutely stunning property. Beautifully decorated with all the amenities you could wish for. Only a short walk from Den Helder centre and station. Perfect!
