Spaarne Luxury Residence Haarlem

What a great place. It was our hub for exploring and was a prefect location. Close to some great food, Transportation, and so forth. The unit was great. Quiet and easy to relax after a long day exploring. Haarlem was so great. We were here for F1 and would stay here again.

We had a wonderful time in Haarlem, you are extremely central and can walk everywhere. The view from the apartment is of the beautiful canal. The beds were comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed though please do note it does not have an oven only a microwave. Also we handled the stairs fine but they are steep stairs right upon entry so carrying up our large suitcase was tough. Our kids ages 5 and 9 handled it fine but something to note that I don't think we fully realized from the listing that there were more stairs than the ones in the pictures to the bedroom.

I had a wonderful stay with my two teenager girls in this beautiful apartment at the best address in Haarlem! What a house, full of history and a good tast for interior. You really need to be fit to climb the many stairs up to the apartment but totally worth it! The location is by far the best place in Haarlem and the sleeping room upstairs really the beautiful room to sleep, I've ever been! I parked outside the town on a park and ride spot for free for this week and jogged back at the canals but the bus or train station is nearby. So I have to say, I recommend this apartment and the service with no regrets. It was perfect for us the women! We loved it!

Great location, beautiful apartment. It was good of the owners to mention the steep steps so we were forewarned. Good communications too. Thoroughly enjoyable stay. Thank you.

Pros - Great location and easy check in. Cons - Stairs to 2nd floor bedroom challenging at night, especially for kids. Minimal linens provided. Some materials in the apt are out of date or missing (brochure had wrong check out time, old phone # to contact host). Windows need to be propped open (heat wave during our stay), but materials to prop open with minimal/hidden.

Location cannot be beaten. Beautiful outlook on the River and close to an abundance of food choices and shops. Station is a pleasant 15 min walk. The steep stair climb to the apartment is challenging particularly with luggage but is totally worth the view and did not impede our stay at all. Beds were comfortable and accommodation was clean. We did have a trouble working the oven (no microwave) so appliance instructions would have been handy as we gave up in the end. Overall, we had a fantastic time in Haarlem and would not hesitate to stay here again.

WOW!! I can not say enough about how great this property is. Location is perfect, walkable to countless eateries and shops and beautiful scenery everywhere you look. Many have mentioned the stairs, yes, there are many steps so beware of the weight of the luggage you bring and just go slow, but honestly, I would say it is part of the charm. We did not cook at the apartment, but it seemed to be very well stocked if you wanted to. Beds were very comfy. Would certainly stay again if ever in the area!

Beautiful place, excellent location, the hosts were responsive and it was easy to get checked in and out, would definitely stay again and recommend to a friend!

Loved the location-great view out the windows watching the boats in the canal. The stairs are very steep and there are a lot of them, but you get used to it. Great place!

The location was great for exploring Harlem and Amsterdam, and the apartment was comfy for our family

An excellent location! So with this review, I want to share the good, and bad of our stay. GOOD : - Location! - Comfortable Beds - View from living room - Internet Access - Laundry *Washer only, and requires hang dry of your clothes. Thankful there are hangers in each closet - Large dining table I made communication with the VRBO host about an issue with the oven, and made note of several other bits of info and changes that would benefit future guest. So that brings me to the next section... BAD : - prepare yourself for the staircase! The first run of stairs going up is steep, and includes 2 additional spiral portions before making it to the main door. BEWARE THE LOW BEAM. I was focused on getting the kids up the stairs while dragging suitcases and doing my best not to fall, I completely overlooked the Low Beam on the second spiral portion of the stairs. Almost knocked myself unconscious on the first ascent! - In the photos we were excited to find a place with a full kitchen and an oven! Sadly, the oven was not functional for out stay. After reviewing photos from the VRBO listing, it appears 2 of the buttons were missing. Upon our first attempt using after arrival, there were 4 buttons missing. - Communication. We hadnt received communication from VRBO with key access or other useful information until after arriving at the door and making a request on the VRBO site. Standing outside with the family and suitcases wasnt expected. -please get info on trash locations

We chose Haarlem as our home base for our trip to Holland. We couldn't have chosen a more perfect place to stay! This home was so clean and comfortable. It was perfect for exploring the area and close to the train station to go to Amsterdam. We rented bikes nearby and spent the day exploring the area, national park and even the seaside. It was such a cozy place and it felt like home. Highly recommended.
