Full text | xivili Hotels. HOLLAND. many is an exaggeration. The Dutch seaside-resorts, especially Sche- veningen, have the reputation of being expensive. Fees at museums, churches, etc., should not exceed 2 fl. per day. Hotel expenses amount to 7-8 fl. daily, and travelling and other expenses to 4-5 fi., so that the total cost of a tour in Hol- land will be 13-15 fl. a day. The ‘voyageur en garcon’ may reduce this by one half by breakfasting at the cafés, dining at simple restaurants, and avoiding expensive hotels. — Students will find simple accommodation and excellent board at 2 or 3 fl. in the villages. Information is supplied by the Bureau Officiel de Renseignements pour les Etrangei's, Lange Voorhout 45, The Hague. III. Passports, Custom House. Passports may be dispensed with in Holland, as in Belgium, but the traveller had better be provided with one if he contemplates a prolonged tour. Comp. p. xiv. Custom Hovusr. At the frontier-stations the smaller articles of luggage are examined in the railway-carriages. To ensure the safe arrival of registered or booked luggage, it is advisable to state the exact route for which the railway-ticket is available. If the owner is not present at the appointed custom-house, luggage is seldom o1 never forwarded. The duty on cigars is low. IV. Hotels, Cafés, Milk Shops. The Horsrus of the first class resemble those of Belgium (see p. Xiv) in falling short of the palatial standard, though an exception to this rule is afforded by some houses of international reputation at The Hague, Scheveningen, and Amsterdam. In some respects they resemble the hotels in England more than those in other parts of the continent. The usual charge for a bedroom, including light and attendance, is 21/)-5 fl., plain breakfast (ontbyt) 60-80 cents, déjeuner or luncheon 41/,-2 fl., table @héte dinner 2-31/y fi. (wine extra in each case). Luncheon is generally taken between 11.30 and 1, dinner between 5 and 7.30 o'clock. In the old Dutch hotels in the districts comparatively unaffected by the stream of tourists it 1s customary to combine the charges for room and breakfast, the latter including meat, honey-cakes (see p. 428), and cheese. Luncheon or déjeuner is, in this case, better obtained at a café. Meals at the less pretentious hotels are often nearly as dear as those of the first- class houses, but the charge for bedrooms is generally considerably less. In spite of the Dutch reputation for cleanliness the traveller will often find the sanitary conditions of these hotels far from pleasant. The beds also are often inferior to those of Belgium. English, French, and German are spoken at all the more frequented hotels and restaurants. |
