Acceptable standard of hotel but not 5 *

Good clean hotel but advertised as a five star which it clearly is not ! Staff were friendly and helpful Noise from the next room could have been irritating and should have been better insulated. It was mainly due to the interconnecting door not been properly sound-proofed. The bar area was fine but seemed empty most of the time and perhaps lacked a warm inviting atmosphere. Overall quite good and anyone visiting would be reasonably pleased but not exceptional It was located within striking distance of most things.

If you go to the Anne Frank museum arrive at about 8:30. There will already be others queuing but nothing compared to what happens later when the queues flow around the block!

Lovely Hotel/Great Location

Hotel is lovely, staff was helpful. I will say that the internet is very expensive. Suggest buying the internet cards to use in the business area. Right behind hotel is grocery store to purchase breakfast items, snacks, etc.

Great hotel, great location

Great location. We took many day trips outside of Amsterdam via the train which was two blocks from the hotel. Eating out was very easy too since there are numerous restaurants within a block of the hotel (plus McDonald's for the kids one block away). Hotel had great security since you couldn't use the elevator without your room key. Hotel was clean and staff was extremely helpful and nice. We would definitely stay there again.

Money-saving tip: Short walk from hotel

To save money on eating out, we went to a grocery store behind the hotel on Nieuwendijk to get breakfast items. You can also buy the same Dutch cookies at a fraction of the price that all the souvenir shops sell.

Wonderful and great location too!

Hotel is very nice, clean and super friendly. Loved our room- more like an american hotel room size than europe which is nice. Many english TV channels and great club room with beer and breakfast every morning and afternoon. The location is perfect for all attractions and the hotel staff is helpful. You can buy tickets for most attractions in the lobby. We have stayed at this hotel twice and had a great stay both times!

very nice hotel

great stay at this hotel. really great location in the heart of the center area. close to the train station for the airport, walking distance to dam square, the jordaan area, etc. rooms are nicely updated. very clean. one complaint i have is the room i had was up 2 different elevators and felt very far away. so you go down 2 stairs in the lobby then up 2 elevators. why? and expensive. but i guess all amsterdam is quite expensive for hotels

Great but expensive internet access

Everything is great about this hotel - great location, nice service and people, clean and comfort room and bedding. however, there is no WiFi signal in the room, internet access is expensive, eg. 7 Euro/hour from room. The free internet is only available in the lobby. There is free/weak WiFi signal in the lobby and four computers with limited free access time in the lobby. It is a bit disappointing not having free WiFi for such a great hotel.

Great business hotel in central location

The hotel was in an excellent location within walking distance to Amsterdam Centraal station. The rooms were clean and if you get a room with a king-sized bed, fairly spacious. However, internet is expensive and there is no water kettle in the room (meaning no free tea or coffee). We opted to eat out for all of our meals as our stay didn't include breakfast.

The hotel is located very near

The hotel is located very near central train station and is very convenient. We were very upset when we checked in, we were given a very small room. The staff from "delighted to serve" office claimed that it is the last available room and refused to do anything. When we told her that in fact our booking is confirmed for triple and a much a bigger room, she reluctantly looked for another room and again claimed that it was the last available room. We were really surprise at her attitude. As the next day, when we requested for late check out, another staff from the same office was really helpful and pleasant. Another thing is the hotel has no swimming pool though it is a 5 star hotel.
