Amsterdam Amsterdam-West Hotels

The room was well furnished, the bed was reasonably comfortable (although we had to both ask for another pillow as they were quite flat). The bathroom was huge - and they provided you with shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion etc. and a hairdryer. The room was tidy and kept clean each day, (although sometimes not fully restocked - for example not enough tea bags/toiletries refreshed!). It had a Nespresso machine (although instructions would be handy as it took us a while to sort boiling water out!) The location was close to a few supermarkets - one next door, (handy since you have a fridge in your room), a few cafes, a bar and a few places to eat. Its a 2minute walk from a tram/bus stop which took you into the centre in 15-20 minutes. They also had bike hire there for a reasonable price, so you could use that to get into the centre. The staff were friendly and I would highly recommend for the price!

The good: First and foremost, the staff. All very friendly doing their best to help with any problem that may arise, whether it has to do with your stay at he hotel or not. Good location, close to the museum quarter, five minutes' walk to the tram station that goes to Dam square and the train station, in a quiet residential street. OK: Rooms are very small and compact, but that seems to be the general situation in Amsterdam, and if you're out all day seeing the sights then it's not a deal breaker. The bad: Housekeeping needs to get their act together. Checked in, went up to the room, entered the bathroom and was greeted by a very strong smell of mildew or something similar. Fortunately I was immediately given another room without any argument. Went up to the room, entered the bathroom, and noticed that one of the overhead lamps was not working. Took a shower and found that there's a drainage problem with the water draining so slowly that I had to shut the water flow so as not to have water overflowing onto the floor. Nothing tragic, and it was all fixed the next day, but one would think that the job of housekeeping is to take care of these problems BEFORE the guest checks in, not after.

The hotel I booked for the boss, the feedback is very good, it is very convenient to travel, and the main thing is that it is very close to my factory. Every time I go on a business trip, I will choose this hotel. The environment and facilities are good.

We stayed with a Rick Steve's tour group. This company is clear to advise you that you will be staying in moderate European hotels on their tours, meaning they may have limited or no air conditioning, may have street noise, may be small, etc. This hotel had all of these drawbacks. Again, this was as advertised to us but something other U.S. travelers may want to know as the standards are very different. The unadvertised problem with this hotel is that it is dirty. We had two rooms, both of which were sloppy or sticky when we arrived and got no better with housekeeping. Both rooms had dirty linens, to the point of being stained; full of hair and other flotsam; and smelling bad in one of the rooms. I actually tied a pajama top around my pillow hoping to lessen the smell of it. They were working on housekeeping throughout our stay so I don't know where the disconnect was. We don't normally stay at hotels at this classification but it's a part of the tour culture for this company. We have been on several tours with them previously so knew what to expect and how to adjust our expectations. We tried to roll with this place hoping it would just make for a funny story but ultimately could not tolerate it; we checked out early and paid for another hotel. I don't think I've posted a hotel review in a decade, that's how unpleasant it was. There are plenty of other poor reviews here, including from other people on Rick Steve's tours so it's not a one off. I'll be sharing my unhappiness with the company in the hopes they change hotels. I understand they have a long relationship with them but we are too far past COVID restrictions for this to be tolerated. If you aren't with a tour group there is no reason to stay here. On the positive side it is very centrally located and the staff were okay. Relative to some other hotels in this category we stayed at it was modern. It just isn't clean.

Close to main train/bus/trolley station, about 15 min walk or less than 5 minute trolley ride. Staff was very nice and helpful. My credit card got declined several times on their automated check in and I was about to have a nervous breakdown. The lady at front desk helped me, first of all, to calm down and then used the card at her desk where it worked just fine. We checked in at 4 pm and fortunately for us our room wasn't ready and we got upgraded. Breakfast was delicious but if you don't eat much, like my daughter, its a bit too much/pricey. They allowed us to store our bags after our check out and held it until it was time for our bus at midnight, they also let us hang out in their lobby/computer area until it was time to go. Perfect location, clean, friendly staff.

Take the bus from the Central Railway Station. There is no stop at the opposite side of the hotel. It is not convenient to have a suitcase. The swimming pool opposite the hotel, can't go in, isn't it the hotel? The day before yesterday was very enthusiastic, asking for a transportation card, easy to buy. The refrigerator cannot be used normally. The room is still big enough.

The hotel is older, the facilities are slightly older and the carpet looks dirty. The sound of closing the door in other rooms is louder, the faucet is a little leaky, it is very hard to switch, and the heat of the water is difficult to adjust. The elevator is so small that you can probably stand two people. The room is really small, probably the general situation in Amsterdam. The street room will be a bit noisy and there will be a car. The location is very good, less than ten minutes is Leighton Square, a lot of places to eat. Walking to the National Museum and the Van Gogh Museum are not far away. You can pick up hot water at the water bar, and the postage at the front desk will help you post postcards. Hope the doors and faucets could be fixed or changed.

Yes, I booked late and got the lower floor single room, for the price I had expected more. The staff was very helpful. No complaints there. The room was small, but quite adequate for a few days. It looked directly out on the hotel's garden, which might bother some. Bathroom tiny, like all bathrooms in Amsterdam, but manageable. Décor was attractive, the bed and pillow were comfortable but paint chips were just about everywhere, even a burned cigarette hole in one of the chairs. The carpet was not clean. Breakfast was sub par. In Amsterdam I've always gotten more variety and better quality. Of course, it was largely preferable to spending who knows how much at a nice breakfast place in the area. You may have guessed, I love to load up big on breakfast and then stay out fully energized for as long as possible. This strategy may not appeal most people though. One of the big pros is, obviously, the location, especially if you are a museum fanatic like me. I was there to see the fabulous Vermeer exhibition at the Rijksmuseum so a 8-minute walk gets you first in line no sweat. And if like me, you've stayed hours in the museum, the short walk back to the hotel is a life saver. So, I'd love to be more lenient because the staff was kind and really helpful but I do hope to avoid disappointments for other travelers who are, unlike me, more concerned about the hotel they are in. I would suggest you don't get the lower level rooms and things might be better. Rule out breakfast though. Hope that helps...enjoy Amsterdam.
