Needs more setup as a hotel.

Nice bathroom. Nice bed. Nice location.
Check-in terrible. Very hard to get wifi password from hotel. Took 4 tries - up and down lots of stairs so many times. This place is primarily a restaurant that runs the hotel as an add-on. A very young waitress ended up saving the day, since she took over the task and saved the day.
Bed is an extremely tight fit in a small room.
Could not get TV to work (on TV mode). Did not know if subscription services were gratis or billed to room. They should really fix this.

My room had several issues. The main one being that the bathroom door was missing!! Not only that, but the shower handle was broken and I couldn’t regulate the temperature, and finally, the window was cracked and wouldn’t close.
The staff fixed the shower and window, but they didn’t have anyone to handle the bathroom issue, which you can imagine, is critical.
All they did was say “I’m sorry” and that’s it. I wouldn’t recommend this place and will ask for a refund

This was our second time staying here. We love this cute little place. Staff was super friendly and it's location is perfect for the cheese market and other sites. There is no air conditioning is the only downside. We definitely will stay here again if we are back in that area.

All staff were really helpful and the room was clean with unexpected extras like completely ear plugs, safe and a fridge with water, pop and a few snacks. A beautiful location in with canals and tourist attractions on the doorstep. Also a great base to get to Oosterhout parkrun. My room was a little tired with a cracked window and other mantinance bits with a steap staircase so not advisable for anyone with mobility isues but overall a great stay and would recommend and would stay again.

OK place for one night

The location was fantastic...easy walking distance to main attraction area. The room was quite small with little room to put our luggage and other items. The WC was in a seperate room from the shower and sink. The shower area was very small and as a result everything in that area got wet.
The staff were helpful and friendly. They stored our bikes inside which we appreciated. We chose not to have breakfast there as we thought it was over priced.

We had a nice stay at the Wolf Hotel. There was a little confusion at check in as we received an email saying we could check in at 2:00 but when we arrived, a fairly flustered server said that check in was at 3:00. She did check on the room and it was ready by 2:00. The other staff were quite helpful, our room (#1) had its own balcony to sit outside, and faced the back of the hotel (avoids the street noise at the front on the canal and over the restaurant). We also ordered the breakfast in the morning, which was great-a little of everything from eggs and bacon, to fruit, juice, coffee and croissants and a pancake.
So for one night, it was a nice stay.

Charming hotel at an affordable price

A wonderfully charming place staffed by very friendly professionals. Every breakfast was delicious. The room was super clean and comfortable, if fairly small. The view from the room was okay but the view from the roof was a bit better. Taxis will get you 90% of the way there but you'll have to hoof it that last 100m or so. The train station is at the outer edge of walking distance, esp w/luggage, but that only matters when you're checking out anyway. Amsterdam is 44 km (20 mins by taxi, 30 mins by train) away. The stairs are spiral and very steep so be careful if you're clumsy or frail or have heavy bags. The downstairs bar is brightly lit and offers traditional Dutch breakfast and every libation you could possibly want. Everyone speaks English and makes you feel like a valued guest, not just a customer. They are very sweet. I recommend the Wolf Hotel for this reason, as well as Alkmaar being a charming town w/all manner of restaurants and photo opportunities. The hotel costs about 1/2 what a comparable hotel in Amsterdam does.

Loved this place💕
Food really good, staff friendly. Bedroom clean and cozy.
Note; Stairs going up to rooms would be a problem for those who struggle with stairs...no elevator....we were happy they took our suitcases up for us on arrival.
Could use a couple hooks or towel bar to hang towels to dry resulting in less room service😀.
Location is prime for old town and cheese market and right beside canal, very scenic.
Also loved the two little fireplaces in the restaurant and in the outside seating area.
Lovely place....would definitely recommend it.

I liked the location to main attractions in Alkmaar.

Our hotel room at the back of the hotel was over kitchen, so could be noisy for those wanting to retire before 10:30 pm

Great Location, Comfy Bed, Great Service

The location of this hotel can't be beat! If you have large luggage good luck getting up the stairs (I didn't so it wasn't any issue for me). The bed was very comfortable (so many are like sleeping on concrete) and there was a fan in the room which is always appreciated! The breakfast was an incredible platter that was enough food for breakfast and lunch and if you tell them you are vegetarian they will accommodate (maybe vegan as well but I'm not certain). They let me bring my bicycle inside at night and said it wasn't a big problem if I was a little late checking out.

Nice room, great location, some street noise

I booked the Hotel MIJ and was slightly confused on arrival to find it has been renamed to the Hotel Wolf (Wolf Kitchen Bar Hotel). It's in a great location by a canal in the heart of Alkmaar, ideal for visiting the historic centre. The hotel is a pleasant 15 min walk from the railway station. Check in is at the bar, although there is a separate external door for accessing the rooms above, via a fairly narrow winding staircase. One slight problem late on a Saturday night in summer was having to squeeze past the occupants of a table placed right outside this door to get inside! My luxury room overlooked the canal, quite large, very comfortable, nice shower, small safe, fridge with a couple of complimentary cans of drink in it, kettle e.t.c and a useful plan of the city. It looked good, as if it had been recently refurbished, and compared well to the typical 4 star rooms you would find in Amsterdam for example. One issue with the hotel's very central location is that the local nightlife can create some noise, especially noticeable as I stayed on a sunny Saturday night at the end of June and a lot of people were sitting outside. Complimentary ear plugs were supplied, although I didn't use them as there was a large electric fan in the room - when I switched it on, it drowned out the sounds from outside almost totally. I liked this hotel and would stay here again, just bear in mind that depending on your room it could get a bit noisy at the weekend or on warm summer nights.

Stylish hotel, friendly staff

The hotel is stylish and efficiently designed; rooms are typically small for a European hotel, but everything is very modern and laid out well. The staff was extremely helpful. Get the breakfast: it's huge and delicious and extremely well-prepared. The hotel is right on the canal in Alkmaar, which is a really charming small town. A great place to stay.

Great location, clean and quiet.

There is no lobby, since the hotel is connected with a restaurant/lounge. But once in the room, wow... very clean and everything is nice. Super quiet at night, almost *too* quiet. Once outside, it is a 30 second walk to Waagplein, the center of Almaar (where the cheese market is held during the summer). Perfect.

Het is erg gehorig. In ieder geval op de bovenste verdieping. Alsof er mensen nog boven wonen. Niet rustgevend als bezoeker. Ontvangst en vertrek zou ik wat gastvrijer en vriendelijker opvangen. Voor de rest degelijk onderkomen voor een nachtje

Nice restaurant, worn down room

Good restaurant and a beautiful neighbourhood, but the room itself was somewhat worn down. The smoke from the smokers in the street drifted into the room, the door gave off load alarm signals when I tried to close it, and I couldn’t get the light in the bathroom to work. I’m certain these issues can be, and might already be, adressed though. I cannot recommend Alkmaar enogh. So don’t hesitate to go.
