Beautiful location, amazing restaurant, plus the hotel and restaurant staff were wonderful. The restaurant food and wine pairings were excellent. I highly recommend the Chef’s Menu with the additional wine selection. The proprietor came by while we were sitting outside each evening eating dinner to check on us and to make sure everything was perfect. It truly was!

The bathroom in our room (#18) had an odd configuration where the sink was outside of the toilet and shower area, but the door slammed into the sink located in the bedroom area whenever it was opened. The door would not open to its full capacity because the sink location prevented full door usage.

Breakfast was good and our host was always there in the morning to ensure we were happy. Dinner was surprisingly good, a delicious meal, well served. Our bedroom was small but had everything we needed and our dog was made very welcome. Edam is a charming town which we enjoyed exploring and we always found a free parking space on the street near to the hotel, to our surprise. Maybe not in high season but we were happy.

The bedding was a little small but when we mentioned it, our host immediately exchanged it for a better fit. We really did not find anything to dislike in this charmingly old fashioned hotel.

Lovely location by the canal. Room had fridge and tea making facilities. Able to leave bikes around the back of the property (outside) and there was e-bike charging facilities. Nice breakfast in the morning. Manager and staff very polite and helpful.

Unfortunately were given the wrong room and the attic room we had was very hot; there was a clunky a/c system that was too noisy to use and the window needed to be propped open; consequently I didn’t sleep very well. Also it would have been nice to have been able to eat there but it was fully booked - a message suggesting the necessity to book would have been good.

I loved the authentic appearance of the historic property. Loved the location having the boat repair and maintenance across the canal from our room. The staff were happy to be of help with anything at all. The food is gourmet 5* on the dinner menu. No hot items for breakfast but everything for continental is covered, fresh and appealing. We appreciated ground floor easy access room. The shower was good pressure and hot. Location in the town was excellent and just a short walk to the main square.

the sounds from other rooms were intrusive. Soundproofing would add immense value to this hotel.

Our 2nd stay here and we love it. Food is excellent. We need the accessibility of a garden room, but (in room 28) the hot weather meant the room was very stuffy, and cramped, and as there seemed no ventilation in the bathroom, leaving the door open added to the overall humidity. We were both exhausted, but very content to spend hours in the hotel's lovely private garden overlooking the canal. Everyone most friendly and attentive.

The ventilation in the room (28). The dash windows are hard to open, and there's no through draft.

Excellent location with wonderful outdoor patio area along the canal. Picture perfect Holland houses and near to everything. The restaurant was so quaint and comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding and we enjoyed both drinks and meals on the patio. All the hotel staff were friendly and helpful.

The rooms are quite small but cozy. If you need a ground floor room, be sure to specify because the stairs are steep! Also we had rooms right beside the outdoor dining area and the noise lasted until 10:00 or later at night. I am sure rooms not in the main building would be much quieter.

We absolutely loved everything about this gorgeous little place to stay and the entire town. It was a quiet quaint and pretty hotel where we watched ships sail by from a flowered terrace while we had breakfast or lunch. Our evening meal was delicious and had a good menu to choose from. The property's location is a short drive to many tourist sites and the staff was friendly and helpful. Next time in the Netherlands we certainly stay at De Fortuna again!

The weather? LOL! Everything else was wonderful!

Beautiful location in the centre of Old Edam, lovely old buildings. Room was clean and comfortable. We had a room with a pretty outlook over the canal. Very very quiet at night. Breakfast was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Wonderful stay, we would definitely stay again. If you are bringing a car, there is public parking very close by which is limited to 4 hours between 9am and 6pm but unlimited overnight. You will need a blue parking disc for this but the hotel was able to provide one for us to use. There is no parking at the hotel itself.

A gorgeous hotel right in the centre of Edam on the canal side. So quiet and peaceful. Our room was in a house in the pretty garden. I last visited this hotel 28 years ago and its still as lovely. You can sit outside in the garden outside your room. The restaurant is amazing but book - it gets very full. Breakfast is traditional Dutch with cereal and yoghurt, boiled eggs, a selection of hams cheeses, different breads and croisants. The staff are so friendly and efficient. I loved it.

Nothing

Excellent location, great sun terrace to enjoy a glass of wine and very attractive setting

Room was very comfortable but perhaps some could judge it to be a little small. That said it was well situated, well equipped and confortable
