Best Hotels near De Bouwgaard - Centrumeiland, Amsterdam

The location in IJburg is not, of course, the city centre. With the train 26, the Central Station is well reachable in about 20 minutes. A supermarket is located between the end station (there is also a ticket machine) and the hotel. Availability with the PPNV is a train or car arrival that you can leave in the parking house (there are cheaper parking places than in the hotel itself). Breakfast is very good. We can also express wishes that are then freshly prepared (e.g. mirror, omelet). Heat drinks are available by self-service from the full-automat. There is also a delicious hot chocolate here. The room looks a little unfinished. Gray walls without color. There is no closet, but only a cord with clothing bar. A small treasury, a TV with, among others, German broadcasters (ARD, ZDF, RTL) there is also. The bathroom separates a milk glass slide door, but it leaves a gap open that should be taken into account when you do not pin the room alone. The bathroom is wet when you do it, because the shower is only half closed and there is no door. The hotel is recommended if you can make a little bit at the price, 200 euros per night would be too much.

Not quite sure why there are so many negative reviews calling this place unacceptable, for the price you pay you’re definitely getting your moneys worth and some. The male young receptionist was friendly at check in and guided us to our room (although he didn’t know some answers about basic questions about the area, such as he incorrectly told us the wrong time for the last trams, he was very kind but maybe the staff could be told some answers to the most common questions). The junior suite was extremely spacious, had a lovely bathroom, lots of mirrors which was nice, large bed and lots of light windows overlooking the dock. The room was fab, however like some other reviews state sometimes there was a mysterious odour, particularly on the last day, but it wasn’t unbearable. Could definitely do with some harder mattresses which would definitely improve everyone’s experience but I still slept perfectly. Location is perfect for the price, only a 14min tram away from Amsterdam Centraal. The coffee pods and machine in the room were nice but could also put some biscuits there too which would be amazing. Maybe needs a repaint of the room but it’s safe to say i’d definitely stay again

Stayed at the amazing Via Amsterdam recently. First impressions were great a lady helped us massively before arrival answering all our queries in reservations and was very helpful with tips of places to visit and getting tickets etc even very helpful travel tips from the airport. We came to check in and loved the place it’s about a 10 minute walk from the local station could be done quicker once you know the route. The whole reception lay out is huge, lots of seating, games area, even it’s own cinema area. We had a very nice gentleman on check in called Bart who was lovely, he helped us with directions, booking breakfast and dining tips. We dined in the Bar called the dude and had a couple of drinks. Bar is quite expensive but nice vibe only fault we found was a very limited restaurant menu choice, we did eat the burgers (no other choice) and they are recommended but you don’t want to eat the same thing every night. Rooms are spacious but quite sp**** could do with a table and a couple of chairs to be fair so you can sit and chat. Very clean and comfy beds. Showers only and a bit small but offer free shampoo and shower gel, no towels so bring your own. Breakfast was a bit of a poor show and could do with improvements. For the amount you pay it’s not worth it. You could go into Amsterdam and buy something better for cheaper. We had seen online people complaining about not being central but honestly it’s no issue there is a metro within walking distance and takes you directly into Amsterdam central in about 15 minutes and run regularly. Overall had an fantastic stay and would highly recommend to anyone. You cannot fault the place. I did have a nightmare after checkout tho and was my only complaint as I was overcharged and tried for nearly a month to get a refund from the manager jonannes who wouldn’t speak to me because apparently he was too busy (not the best customer service from a manager) I tried calling and emailing but he just wouldn’t reply or sort the problem and other poor staff tried to make excuses for it not being sorted sooner, it was eventually sorted by someone else but after such a good stay it did leave me feeling slightly disappointed. Hopefully he has improved his customer service by now as this does not reflect on how good this place actually is.

The hotel inspite of being rated 4 stars does not have a phone in the room , no gym , no room service , no coffee or tea in the room. But if what you look for in a hotel is only a bed to sleep in then this hotel offers a very spacious , comfortable and modern room.Since the hotel opened it's doors in 2019 is relatively a new hotel.It may not be centrally located but is well connected via public transport with the rest of Amsterdam, It's location in itself is also an attraction as is relatively a quiet residential area but still being in the docks area of Amsterdam it offers plenty of canals to discovered , less crowded than those in central Amsterdam.

Stayed here one night on IHG rewards points as a platinum member. Reception staff were super friendly, efficient and professional. The room was excellent on the 12th floor with great corner window views. Breakfast also good. I’d say this was one of the best express stays I’ve had. Sometimes this brand can be fairly low on the quality scale but this location is fantastic. Also, the let me store my bike in the luggage room of the holiday inn below.

Location is not in the heart of Amsterdam's attraction, but with the station nearby, you can go everywhere in Amsterdam

Excellent customer service with high quality of hospitality. Very accommodating during with Covid challenges. Clean, big room with lots of lights and windows ( room number 50) , big enough to accommodate couple with 4 suitcases, the have elevators which is rare to find ;) Excellent and caring staff, breakfast with lots of choose and excellent Dutch cheese and bread etc … Strongly recommend to choose this hotel since it’s 20 min from Amsterdam with easy access to the train and airport. Also situated in city center, close to shops and restaurant .

Hotel was great for the price you pay. The rooms are tiny (barely enough room to open a suitcase) and although situated conveniently next to a metro station is in the middle of nowhere but again, you get what you pay for and the lobby, gym and communal areas are well designed and well kept. If you don’t mind a 15/20min Metro travel to Amsterdam Centraal you wouldn’t mind it here I give the hotel 2 stars because I accidentally left my Apple Airpod headphones in the lobby area the day I checked out to visit another hotel in Amsterdam, although when I called Hotel Leonardo that same night to ask them if they’d been handed in I was told they hadn’t. I travelled down to the hotel the next morning to be told the same thing, that there were no headphones that had been handed in but they asked for my name and previous room number so they could contact me should they turn up. Luckily I was able to make my lost AirPods make a sound (findmyiphone feature you can activate when you lose a device) and I could hear them beeping behind the front desk so I told the receptionist that I knew they were behind the desk and she eventually handed them over. I firmly believe the hotel staff were trying to keep my misplaced AirPods headphones and if I had not been able to make the sound from the Airpods they would have pocketed them

We stayed a couple of nights in the hotel. It is large hotel with a nice lobby area and is quite new, about 2 years old. Everything is nicely decorated and fresh. There is a large breakfast selection. Be aware it is quite crowded during the late ours of the breakfast and on the weekends. The hotel is located a metro ride or a boat ride from the central station. The train cost 3.20 for one way, meanwhile the boat is free of charge (runs every 10 min). The walking distance to the boat and the metro station is similar (about 15 min). We preferred the boat ride.

The hotel had really modern/smart technologies. It's ina really nice place in the Amsterdam right behind the tramway. Friendly staff and luxurious apartments. Great vfm.
