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.

Very nice location, great and helpful staff, nice restaurant (we only have been to Meat Bistro, and they do have vegetarian options!). Great that we could rented bikes. Beds very comfortable! Pool and saunas were a nice addition.

The surroundings were nice and green. The big windows of the dining room. Th bowling alley. A spacious room.
Bosch Duin offers bright studios just 1 km from Den Helder’s coast. Free Wi-fi and newspapers are available to all guests. Bosch Duin is a 10-minute drive from the centre of Den Helder.
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.
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!
Our studio was quite spacious and had everything we could possibly need for New Years eve: a coffee machine, a water kettle, a stove, a fridge, a modern TV, comfortable beds and a large bathroom with two rainshowers. In addition, we could set the heating just right, which was important to really feel comfortable on that very rainy and windy day. Also, you can easily walk into the forest and dunes straight from the entrance of the hotel. Breakfast was great.
The hotel service is really good. We stayed 2 days only and put a dnd sign so they dont do touch up cleaning. However, they still provided hs with fresh towels and toiletries. Also, we are checking out very early and the reception offerred if we would like a boxed breakfast. It is very nice to say it is possible and the boxed breakfast is also filled with juice, sandwiches, various things for bread and apple.
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.
Beautifully restored in a quiet neighborhood setting. The room was lovely—like a Vermeer painting but with modern, clean amenities. We’d had a cold day visiting Texel and ended it at the Crown in a cozy bed with a hot cup of tea. The breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented—the service attentive and delightful. A highlight of our trip to the Netherlands. Highly recommend!
The hotel location is perfect, steps away from the Railway station. A Family run hotel-restaurant, this is the perfect choice to spend a few days - coffee available at anytime of day / night, various options to check in and out, I choose to stay at this hotel (several times already) despite having other options open (with better rating in Booking).
Nice appartement with its own flair. Lots of small details to discover. All rooms were well equipped. Nice kitchen, nice bedroom, cozy livingspace. Neighbourhood seemed welcoming, lots of friendly people around. Everything was easy to reach (we mostly travelled by foot). If we return to den Helder, we‘d love to stay here again.
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.
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.
The staff at The Den Helder were very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was OK, it was reasonably limited options but the fresh bread-rolls were nice and the cheese was good. Dinner options were quite varied with lots of home-cooked options.
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).
The hotel has an excellent staff,which also provided calm help fort a problem arisen less than an hour before leaving, helped us organise our trip to Texel, our visit of the maritime museum and was very good in handling the breakfast.
