Hollandse Club

Post by DOTA » Tue, 08 Jan 2008 7:13 pm

Hi everyone. :D
I need some help if any can help, I'm most glad.
I noticed this is the active thread but pardon me if my following question is not suited for this forum thread. Moderators can you please relocate it where appropriate.

I have been trying to call the Dutch (Hollandse) Club for hours... and none of the 4 numbers found in the directory seems to be manned??? They are all ringing including the facsimile and only those two are active to receive but I am not faxing anyway.

Is the club open or closed? Can anyone shed any light on this and if you do get through, can you disclose which number is it? Thank you in advance? I will be flying over very soon but first need to make some reservation inquiries with them.

De greetings from Holland.

D.

Not sure which numbers you are calling but under the heading of "Country Affiliated Clubs" in my signature link you will find their website along with numbers and email address.

Van harte dank Jessie. Image

That is a relief to note and perhaps by the time I usually woke up, for my brunch as well as calling the club, they probably have closed up the "boel" and left by then! Can you confirm their opening hours please?

Is there also a local and reliable though inexpensive Rental agency where I can, on "very" short notice, reserve a smallish but comfortable car within the S$30 - S$40 prijsklasse that you may know or recommend?

Image in advance en met vr. groeten,

Hoi Desmond!

Sorry for the late reply....!
The opening hours of the hollandse club is from 8am till midnite.
Should you need to contact the administration site, they are open at
normal office hours which is from 9am till 5pm.

Regarding renting a car in Singapore....Dat is een beetje lastig to confirm the price.Cos there are lots of car rental offices. Het is wel zeker that the local ones are much cheaper than Hertz, Budget etc.
We rented a nissan sunny when we haven't bought our car in the beginning which is 1.6liter car...for SGD60 per day.
Prices are much higher in festive seasons ofcourse. And easy to get within short notice out of the festive seasons.

Hoop je hiermee een beetje geholpen te hebben.

Mvg,
Jasserina

Dat is niet erg Jassie :wink:

When I arrived on the 9th and decided to call up a local Rental at Katong to confirm pick up the following morning, "it is taken since I have not received your sms...."

:???: wondered... is that a fact when my mobile confirmed it was received? Perhaps it is a tactic to push the $45 I was firmly assured on the phone to a higher level they then suggested I could have at 70-plus dollars...hmmm :roll:

I did not attend the premises of the Club as it is strictly an Exclusive member's club... which I accepted and understand but I was also kept very busy with other itineraries till this evening... my only break from many drinking sessions and eat outs with locals instead...IT WAS "hartstiikke geweldig" without renting any after all!!!

I am located at block 18 at Leedon Heights and enjoyed easy access from this location. I am leaving tomorrow and will be back soon, maybe stay a little longer... wie weet?

Stuur maar een PMtje en misschien kunnen wij iets regelen over 'n lente ontmoeting en icm een etentje... laat iets horen.

de groetjes... doei....
