Best Hotels near Noorder IJplas, Amsterdam

We stayed in this hotel from August 31st to September 2nd, myself, my boyfriend and a friend of ours. We took two double rooms, small but really perfect, very clean and welcoming. In this area you are very close to the windmill area which is really worth seeing. We paid €9 per person for the buffet breakfast but it was really well stocked and personally very welcome. A few minutes' walk away is the stop to go both towards Amsterdam Center (you can easily reach it in about twenty minutes by bus) and towards the mill area. In the hotel you also have the possibility of buying the card with the which you can get around on all public transport (which in my opinion is very convenient because there is a public transport service that is exceptional to say the least and very punctual to the second). The staff was very friendly and always smiling, I found the structure in general very beautiful and very clean. We had a really great time and in my opinion this structure is underrated and deserves much more visibility than it has. It was truly an unexpected discovery and very welcome and beautiful.

This hotel is budget and basic but absolutely perfect for a few days visiting Amsterdam. We were very pleased to get off the train from Schiphol via Sloterdijk and find the hotel was a 2-3 minute walk from the station. Zaandam is also a lovely place with lots of shops, cafes and bars. We didn’t explore beyond the Main Street but I’m also told the windmill tour isn’t far away in Zaanse-Schans. Reception staff very friendly, coffee machine in the lobby charges €1.50 for a cappuccino. There’s no breakfast facilities but plenty of cafes within walking distance. also a large supermarket across the street. Room is small but clean with a good view of surrounding area. The shower wouldn’t be out of place in a 5 star hotel, it was brilliant. 10 mins on the train to Amsterdam Centraal and the trains run from around 6am till 1am every 15 minutes.

The overall service was amazing. The lack of crib when we arrived was a little let down but staff went above and beyond. We had 2 cribs at 9 am in the morning, best service from the staff. Friendly staff and great hotel

This has to be hands down the MOST DISGUSTING / DIRTY \ DANGEROUS hotel I have had the unpleasure of staying in. May I add I fly around the world & always stay in 4-5 star hotels at bare min I expect them to be clean. Well I had the shock of my life & have since this visit been so mentally scared I can’t rebook any trips atm due to the stress this has caused me! I was actually HORRIFIED to find BLOOD & URINE stains ALL over my mattress & bed yes the bed they expect you as a paying guest to sleep on ! Then I discovered 2 inches thick of dirty dust under the bed (clearly never been cleaned in YEARS) then to add insult to injury there was USED dirty tissues & socks under the bed like it made me feel physically sick! I wouldn’t except this in a 1 start hotel let alone 4 ! I will be sending my photos & complaints to the people who rate these hotels & ask them to come & recheck them ! They should be SHUTDOWN never mind anything eles this is MAJOR HEALTH & safety problem like we are talking about people’s blood & urine how more DISGUSTING can you get. Next problem was they must of thought let’s kill our paying guest as you your staff member clearly was not bothered about a DEADLY bike which I was given to rent which turned out it had no breaks (they both completely failed on me after not long of riding out) these bikes are fast as well being electric so it’s super dangerous ! & when I told the staff once I got back he wasn’t even in the slightest bothered or concerned he was NOT going to get it Checked / fixed he would of happily just gave that bike back out to someone ! I had to make him report it & come & see the breaks for himself before he finally said Il get it checked ! This is the best part people so When I complained to the hotel managers about the DISTURBING state of my room you won’t believe what their response was you can’t make this up! The lady said she sleeps on a DIRTY stained mattress at home & tried to tell me that 2 inches of dusts must of been made by me in 2 nights I stayed there like I actually laughed had I not been so angry ! What sort of thing to say to paying guests is this ? The worse part then was she went on to say we steam clean the mattress when CLEARY they don’t & she was lying hence the DIRTY BLOOD & URNINE stains I WARN you not to stay here the health problems could be serious blood carry’s EVERY viruses know to man HIV included & urine stains stink & will not be pleasant to sleep on I’m in shock after complaining & explaining I was a loyal guest who has actually stayed with them before you would think they would of offered me a full refund no problems they didn’t want to offer me NOTHING at all they barely even said sorry I’m going to have to try & sue them to claim my money back as I won’t leave this & im NEVER staying with any of there brand hotels again I advise you HIGHLY to avoid this hotel I have no other reason to want to waste my time writing this review other than if it saves just one person from stayin

Zero stars based on customer service, and management. We booked our stay three months in advance, to arrive at the hotel to find our reservation was in the hotels system for the wrong dates. A ‘system error’. We were assigned a room that I did not book, I booked a specific room type. I complained straight away, which resulted in a wild goose chase. I was promised a ‘refund’. This whole ordeal really had a negative impact on our stay, as we were looking forward to staying in a room that we booked three months prior. It took 26 days to receive a very small compensation. Management informed me that the hotel might have changed my room type based on the number of people on my booking. Which they have no right to do, as their own website allowed me to make my booking without an issue. The hotel stopped responding to me after some time aswell which is severely unprofessional. It’s such a pity as the hotel itself was very nice, but the attitude/behaviour of management is really off putting, and I would not recommend anyone to stay here just incase an issue arises, there is a good chance your problem will not be resolved.

We came to this hotel because it looked quirky & to having a few relaxing days away with a couple of hectic Amsterdam days thrown in. The hotel was very good with decent sized rooms. We were on floor 11 with decent views of the surrounding area. There was a free safe in the room which is always a bonus which was straight forward to use. The hotel is situated in a great area for getting around with a bus & train station within 5 minutes walk. There is a shopping street pretty much straight outside which is decent if you need to buy anything. I forgot my toothbrush which fortunately I could pick up at the shop basically next door. Our room had a bath & shower which were easy to use. Although we never saw the housemaids our bed was made daily to a high standard. The hotel bar served breakfast which was continental but was perfectly adequate. The bar itself was ok with a decent variety of drinks & also serving food. The prices were what you would expect of a hotel of this standard. The staff were probably the hotels strongest point very friendly, very prompt & very helpful. I would like to give a shout out to 2 in particular. Benji & Daphne very polite & they couldn't do enough to make our stay impeccable. I would definitely go again if the opportunity arose. It's a first class hotel.

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!

Friendly staff, quick check in and if you book via a third party you pay taxes it's not much to be honest. Rooms are constantly being cleaned, big kitchen to do some cooking. There's a shop behind 5minutes away. Big community area and plenty of activities to engage in. It'd a ferry away from Centraal train station which is convenient

The hotel was great. Very good quality of the equipment. But the services from the Reception was very unkind. The online booking was not great because they announced in Booking website they are not charge the credit card before the the date of the arrival. But they have tried a lot of time to charge my credit card during more than 1 week then they blocked my bank account because my bank though a tentative of fraud. I paid my bank to unblock and made a new credit card. They said it was to save the room... So they are not really in phase with the information giving on their profile in Booking.com. After that, at our arrival, they tried to charge more than expected my reservation (the amount they blocked in my credit card + the full amount of my entire reservation so more than 420 Euros)
