Grand Hotel Amrath Amsterdam

overall pretty good. all the look&feel is kinda old and scary. very lame reception (you have to sit on chairs in a side room), nothing too fancy. the bed worths everything!

very impressive old building (well renovated) with lots of special features. nice wellness area.

Very nice hotel. Interesting building for a hotel(used to be an art-deco office building for shipping companies). Staff was excellent.

The hotel itself is a little quirky since it wasn't originally designed to be a hotel, but for shipping offices of the companies that moved cargo from Amsterdam port. It's one of the prime examples of the Amsterdam School of Architecture, with many carved stone, wrought iron, and stained glass details making it a beautiful building. The room themselves are comfy and the location manages to be both central and quiet at the same time. Can be pricey, but a nice splurge.

hotel was very good,service prompt,reception very helpful,will be glad to recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Excellent service throughout the stay. Room too dark. Told "city view" and it was a back alley. The internet presented wonderful accomodations. It is an old shipping business. Novel & interesting but also that is what it looked like, NOT a 5 Star hotel (not even close - maybe 3 star). Amenities were average to good - small clean pool, whirlpool not hot, nice sauna. Food was fair to good but restaurant a little disorganized. Signage (directions) in the hotel was poor and misleading. Always felt like staff were lacking numbers. Not aesthetically pleasing really at all. But service was excellent, to be sure. Would not stay there again as long as I have options.

the room, the service, the atmosphere and the location were superb. i don't believe I've ever slept so well. close enough to get to everything, but far enough that you could feel removed from the tourists and just unwind. fell in love with whirlpool and sauna. i would definitely stay there again.

A great location! Honestly, right by the central station, ALL the tram lines, and you can walk everywhere. Very professional and friendly staff. We got there earlier than our room was ready (9am) and they allowed us to shower and change in the spa and leave our luggage, when we got back about 2 hours later, the room was ready. The room was nice, quiet, great bed and very comfortable. The only drawback - no a/c the room did get a bit warm one night, but they brought in a fan right away and fixed it the next morning. Overall, a great experience. I would stay there again.

I have to admit, I stay in the finest hotels in the world. I have never had such a personal great time as I did at the Amrath. Super awesome staff, wonderful atmosphere, if they don't have it. They will run and get it. I was so impressed. I didn't want to leave. I was on first name basis with everyone. Wonderful guests from all over the world.

This five star hotel seems to have misplaced two of it's stars, along with it's staff. My wife and I stayed at the Amrath Amsterdam for three nights. The room was of generous size, the tall ceilings were especially nice, the plush king bed was very comfortable and the staff were very friendly - when they could be found. Upon arriving at the hotel, at 2 pm, there was no doorman or bell hop in sight. After lugging our bags up the stairs I was able to locate hotel personnel and check in. The concierge's desk remained vacant most of our stay. The non-smoking rooms appeared to be designated by whether or not there was presently an ash tray in the room. Internet service was problematic. Fortunately, one of the business centers two computers was working. The elevator was particularly unnerving, as it's floor would stop about six inches above the hotel floor - we used the stairs. The room service was timely and the hotel rate included complimentary mini bar. Given the choice, I would have gladly traded the minibar for the misplaced stars.
