A hotel cannot be summed up in a single room photograph. Zien360 created several virtual tours for Van der Valk hotels in Haarlem and Leeuwarden. Guests can explore different room types in advance and, in Haarlem, also visit the bar and restaurant online. This makes the online introduction match the choices guests actually make when booking.

Two hotels and several ways to stay
The productions for Haarlem and Leeuwarden consist of separate tours. Visitors do not have to search through one long tour, but can open the relevant room type or public area directly. This is useful for couples, families and guests looking for extra comfort or wellness.
In Haarlem, we captured Comfort, Comfort Plus and Comfort Single rooms, family rooms, suites and a wellness suite. The bar and restaurant can also be explored. For Leeuwarden, we created tours of a Comfort room, two different family rooms and a suite.
Hotel Haarlem: from restaurant to family room
The Haarlem tours show more than the central atrium and a spacious suite. Guests can compare several rooms. The Comfort Plus room has a calm, open layout. The family room adds a separate bunk bed, immediately showing how parents and children sleep within the same room.
That difference is difficult to judge from ordinary detail photographs. In a 360° tour, visitors can see the position of the beds, walking space, wardrobe, desk and connection to the bathroom. The tour therefore supports not only the atmosphere, but also the practical choice of the right room type.

Hotel Leeuwarden: comfort for couples and families
Leeuwarden also uses more than one room as an example. The Comfort room shows the sleeping area and permanent facilities. The family rooms make clear how a double bed is combined with a separate sleeping area for children.
The two family-room tours have different layouts. One view focuses on the double bed and wardrobes. The other clearly shows how the bunk bed is placed in its own alcove. Parents can therefore assess in advance whether the room suits their family and how much privacy the sleeping areas offer.

Why a separate tour for each room type works
When booking, guests usually compare specific options rather than complete hotels: is this room suitable for two people, is there enough space for children and which facilities are visible? A separate tour for each room type answers those questions more clearly than one general tour.
- Guests open the room type they are considering directly.
- The layout and distance between beds and facilities are visible.
- Families can see in advance where the children will sleep.
- Public areas such as the restaurant and bar have their own presentation.
- Haarlem and Leeuwarden each retain their own character.
