Great hotel, outstanding staff.

The Renaissance Hotel is well located and well within walking distance of the central train station.The stafff is business-like but friendly and they are there to help you when you need it.I was under the impression that breakfast was included in the price of the room. Unfortunately it seems that it wasn't and the [...] confirmation e-mail printout did not reference it. Please try and offer this option in the future.

Great hotel in a great location.

Great hotel in great location. Close to all the stuff you need to see and close to central station that can take you everywhere else. Staff was just ok. They did their job well, but did not go above and beyond

Great hotel, modern inside and

Great hotel, modern inside and in a good location. Wonderful, comfortable bed with all white linen and coverings which is something I prefer. We stayed at the hotel before and after a cruise and on both occasions we were able to access the room early. Self serve coffee machine, in the mornings, was also a plus.

Really nice hotel

We stayed two nights at the renaissance after a 12 day cruise and were pretty spent. Check in isnt untill 3pm but they gave us our room at 9am. We only had two days to see a list of sighths I had written down. Our concierge set us up with a tour that covered all the sights outside the city. Then he built us a map to get to all the sights within the city. He also got our tickets online to the Anne Frank Haus and the Van Gogh Museum so we could avoid the gigantic lines. The hotel is three blocks from Central Station. A perfect distance from the Red Light Disrict, where as you can walk there easily but no noise carries to rooms, and we were there on a soccer weekend. There are dozens of restaurants within a three block radius. I found Amsterdam to be a really cool city and am already planning to return. Unless a fantastic deal comes up on an alternate property, Thr Renaissance is where I will stay.

EXCELLENT HOTEL IN PERFECT LOCATION

Would like more "what's going on this week in Amsterdam" kind of material available in lobby - booklets, better local map from check-in counter - Also - "too narrow" bath tubs need more handles, mat maybe, felt insecure bathing - Very pleased with all hotel employees -

Bad parking etc let down comfy hotel

I stopped off at the hotel while passing through on a business trip. While at first sight it looked OK (apart from the gaggles of conference delegates outside the main door, who had obviously lunched well), I was quite disappointed to be refused a seat in the almost empty restaurant at about 2130 - it all seemed to much trouble for them. Then the check out lady, having delighted me with an unexpectedly high (€50) parking fee, decided to make fun of my name. All in all, this hotel needs to learn customer service and good manners. On the positive side, the bed was very comfortable, and the guy parking cars was most helpful (but at €50 a night he should be).

Average for its price

Will definately try other hotels in area, the breakfast is overpriced therefore recommended to walk around to nearby bakery or cafes.

Restaurants everywhere, but its very touristy and therefore, quality may not be as good, unless your willing to up your budget.
