"The Hollander Hotel is a beautiful boutique hotel with an eclectic and very charming lobby. The rooms were spotless clean and the beds were incredibly comfortable. Check-in was easy on the staff was extremely helpful. Outstanding is also the pool area with ample lounging spaces. What I liked the most, however, is there a beauty product line. It is called Rituals and you can only get it in Europe, where I always bring it from and it was wonderful to be able to use it here. I would definitely recommend a stay in this wonderful hotel."
