Excellent Hotel central location
We really enjoyed our stay at the Forest Hotel. We loved the theme and the attention to detail. It was central for the train station and town centre. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was of good variety and quality. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would come back.

The staff were wonderful. They were very friendly and helpful. We stayed when the weather was hot and there is no air conditioning and the fan was not adequate, but we still enjoyed our stay and will stay there again.

Pretty good. As someone recovering from a knee replacement the stairs up from the street were a little daunting. Breakfast was good though limited scope.

Great small hotel run by a nice family
A family run hotel with the small hotel charm. Rooms are clean and comfortable and i loved the small touches. eg. .The lift :) I would absolutely recommend it if you are in the area.

The hotel location was not easy to access and the parking for it was approximately 1 block away the hotel itself was fine with a good breakfast with a lot of selection available in the dining room. The hotel looked out over a pedestrian walkway that was quite busy throughout the night so if your windows were open there was a lot of pedestrian noise from partygoers returning through the walkway.

Nice hotel in good location
We had a nice stay in the Forrest Hotel. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was enjoyable. The hallways had a strange 'prison block' feel to them, but the organic theme of the room worked well and made for a comfortable ambience.

nicely close to train station and supermarket
Short stay, short and pleasant walk to the sea wall and maritime museum; exciting views of the sea. Elevator is only inside the hotel; so if you have heavy bags, you have to take them up the initial stairs first. Very friendly and helpful staff at the front desk. Reasonably large room. You can open the window and get fresh air in; if it is cold, there is a radiator to warm things up. Nice breakfast; pleasant breakfast room, with an old piano. You can fry eggs in a skillet yourself!!

Very Convinient Hotel to the City Center
Across the street from the Train Station. In the city Centre. The best part of my stay was the kindness and helpfulness of the entire staff. They went out of their normal routine to fix several mishaps by others including retrieving my delayed luggage from KLM. Many Thanks to the staff and the management.

We didn't stay very long but the staff stayed on because we came in at midnight from Amsterdam. Really appreciate them staying back and still helping us out with getting to texel.

We stayed 2 nights in this hotel during our summer holiday and we found the location very convenient to downtown Den Helder. You can walk outside the hotel to the street market on Saturday mornings. Breakfast area is very warm and cozy. Price was more than I expected for Den Helder (similar pricing as if you are in Amsterdam or Den Haag) , but we were very pleased with our stay here.

Super close to the station and public transport
The hotel was well managed and clean. The room was spacious and the bathroom was nicely laid out. Breakfast in the morning had a great selection. The staff were overall very pleasant and helpful. One staff member went out of her way to write out things to do on Texel, the nearby island. You can also order lunch boxes and have laundry done. Very near the station and the bus that takes you to the ferry. There is even a grocery store next door. The only negative was that you have to go up a flight of stairs to access the lobby and from there you can take an elevator. Wonderful stay for us!

Je zit midden in Den Helder. Parkeren is even zoeken naar een plek waar je langer dan 3 uur mag staan. Maar verder leuk hotel, simpel en niet al te gek.
