Luxus und Stil mit dem besten Ausblick in Phillipsburg
Pros:

Das Hotel Holland House ist sicher das beste Hotel in Phillipsburg. Die Zimmer sind sehr groß und komfortabel ausgestattet. Das Bad ist sehr groß und die Dusche ist modern. Die Klimaanlage arbeitet sehr gut (für St. Maarten sehr wichtig). Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Restaurant ist sehr niveauvoll. Der Service zum Frühstück ist besser als in allen anderen Hotels. Die Bar ist top. Die Liegestühle und die Sonnenschirme am Strand sind schon im Preis inclusive.

Cons:

Das Internet (WLAN) ist schwach und bricht immer wieder ab. Leider können wir im Jahr 2027 nicht mehr in dieses wunderschöne Hotel zurückkehren, weil dann zu dem schon sehr hohen Zimmerpreis noch 15 % Service Gebühr und auf den Hotelpreis und weitere 5 % Steuern anfallen. = Schade!!!

I would probably shop around I like the facility, but it was very frustrating. The service in the bar and the restaurant
Pros:

Great location and it was a clean, beautiful facility

Cons:

The front desk was wonderful very helpful. Very kind. They have a restaurant on site and a bar. The bar was very underwhelming service was very very slow and it just didn’t seem like they cared at all if you were there. We ordered food and in particular, we got mahi-mahi tacos. The mahi was deep fried and had been sitting for a long time. It was cold. We mentioned it to the bartender and he said he would just tell the kitchen there was no offer to fix anything.

Om gauw te vergeten
Pros:

Niets

Cons:

Steriele kamers, matig eten maar wel aan de prijs, ontbijt uitgesproken slecht, alles op één bord gekwakt, we hebben het laten staan. Personeel ongeïnteresseerd. Prijs/ kwaliteit zowel van hotel als van restaurants totaal uit balans. Hier komen wij nooit meer terug.
