The hotel is ideally situated. Within a short period of time you are in the city center. Or at lots of the other points of interest in city. Within the vicinity of the hotel there are also activities that can be done. But business cent-re can be found too. The hotel is named after the striking building it is situated in. The building was designed by the architect Van Gool. This architect claimed that the building could only be painted in the specific color blue it still is today.

Area description
Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, has its origins in the 12th Century. It was granted city rights in 1300. It made its mark as a trading post, and the city's ever present water had a major part in this development. Amsterdam is also known for its beautiful historic cent-re with its charming canals and plentiful shopping streets. Amsterdam has a number of special museums, and other interesting sights of international fame.

Noisy and not worth the price

I booked this hotel because I'm on a budget and I figured, even though other reviews were on the negative side, I would be fine. I didn't want a fancy hotel or exceptional service. All I wanted was a place to sleep for a few hours between my trips around Amsterdam. Instead, I was in a room that was close to both the elevators and a heavy hallway door. I spent the entire night hearing the elevator move between the floors (not just the occasional ding- every movement!# and the slam of the hall door every time anyone walked in the hall. I was lucky to get three hours of relative peace. I also have a giant bruise #small canteloupe sized# on my leg because the hand rail for getting in and out of the tub was in a bad location and I slipped. I was lucky it wasn't worse #I was also sober, FWIW). Also, I'm only 5'2", so it may not be an issue for many people, but the tub's rim was above my knee so I wouldn't recommend this hotel for the short and less flexible.

Money-saving tip: Not Applicable

When you get to Schipol (the airport) see if you can get a bus pass. They have a city card for 50 euros (or something like that) and if you have time to see many of the attractions, it might be worth it. But if you can't spend the money to see a lot of the things listed (some discounts are good, like the one for the Van Gogh museum, but some of it is just junk). You can get a 72 hour bus and tram pass for 16.50 euros. Stay in any hotel that will be on any bus/tram route in Amsterdam, because the transport system is really good there. Just make sure you carefully check maps before hand, so you have a good idea of what route/routes to take, because the sheer number of possible routes can make it confusing if you aren't sure what to do.

Its a decent hotel

They need to get their billing system right. I had prepaid and they told me I had to pay for the room. They had to look it up again before finding out that their system had not been updated correctly. Keep your receipt handy always.
