Filled with Elegance and Style!

A truly great location with great connections to central station a 7 minute tram ride direct to the Hotel. LeideSquare is happening with good restaurants and an amazing walk filled with shops all the way to Dam Square! The Hotel is filled with Elegance and style very clean and friendly. Breakfast can be pre booked for 15 euro but well worth it! An amazing grand dining room filled with Smoked salmon,meats,cheeses,eggs cooked however, pastries,fresh juices,proseco!! And bread fresh from the bakery. Pure indulgence!

Fun Trip

Hotel was great especially the staff. Always wanting to please. We arrived early and the desk clerk not only stowed our baggage while we visited around but also got us into our room about 4 hours early. She was great! The food in the restuarant was excellent but pricey. The hotel history is amazing if you're into design and architecture. The location is in the heart of the city and easy to get buses (right out front) or canal transportation which is only steps away. I would return again. For those however who like to smoke the weed, the hotel has a strong prohibition so it's excellent for the family vacation.

First time in Amsterdam

Staying here was perfect! It was my first stay in Amsterdam and I loved it. After a long flight they made getting settled into my room easy, as well as recommending places for me to go explore. I would easily do this again.

Great Place 2 Stay

You cant get a better location, nothing was more then a 15 minute walk away and there is a lot to do right there in the Leidseplien square. The hotel staff was friendly and ready to help- but help was not needed. The rooms were kept very clean and the furnishings were newer, the building was well maintained and had a steam room and a gym. public transportation- bus train and canal boat- all stop right outside the hotel. Showers were hot and had pressure. Did not have a great view- window looked over an interior roof area. No microwave in the room, there was a hot pot for tea or instant coffee that worked great. I did not try room service.

Time-saving tip: Not Applicable

to get around in Amsterdam, remember the layout of streets and canals are circular, not block style like in the states. 4 right turns will not get you back to your starting point

Great Stay

My wife and I had a great stay at this hotel. It's location is central to all of the things a tourist would want to see. There are cafes, shops, coffee shops, a mall, The Van Gogh museum and Rijks museum just a short walk away. A ten minute ride on the trolly will get you to Central Station in the city center. This will be where I stay the next time I visit Amsterdam.

Time-saving tip: Short walk from hotel

The trolly system can save you tons of walking. A 24 hour pass is around 5 euros but be prepared to have close to the exact amount you are buying because it seemed that none of the trolly operators were ever able to make change for a 20 or larger euro bill.

Splendid Anniversary start before Cruise.

We were quite comfortable and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It was in close proximity to the various sites and canal boat, tram, bus entrances. We would definitely stay again at this hotel if we return to Amsterdam.
