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.

A hotel in the city center and with a view to tree tops. The hotel has a genuine wooden interior, which creates a cozy atmosphere. Very clean and very neat. One minor drawback is the missing elevator from ground plane to first floor.

Goed hotel met uitstekende service en prima ontbij

Goed hotel, centraal gelegen in Den Helder, zeer goed ontbijt en uitstekende service. Kamers zijn goed, maar je hoort goed wat de buren vertellen. Douche zonder handdouche is niet evident. Voor elf uur ‘s avonds kunnen de fietsen binnen staan.

Jammer dat ze geen parkeerplaatsen hebben en je de auto ergens in een straat bij andere mensen voor de deur moet parkeren. Verder was het een heel prettig hotel. En een - puntje dat je er niet buiten kon zitten
