Grand Hotel Downtown

On arrival in Amsterdam, we had booked a Ziptransfer to our hotel...my advice would be not to bother.....thats a review for another day!!! There are loads of taxis outside the airport....beware to use a registered taxi as there are many men, holding up taxi signs who are using their own cars and charge whatever they want! The hotel rooms are very small but very clean and the bathroom had gorgeous underfloor heated tiles which were so nice underfoot. There was a selection of toiletries, tea & coffee making facilities in the room, a mini bar (not stocked, except with 2 bottles of complimentary water), a large smart TV, so we could watch Netflix and best of all sockets on both sides of the bed, which is nearly unheard of in any hotel!! The breakfast buffet was fantastic with a choice of hot (eggs, sausage, pancakes, waffles, beans, potatoe circles) and cold (selection of cold meats, cheeses, yoghurt, fruit etc) food every day and a good range of breads and pastries, jams, spreads etc. Staff were helpful, accommodating and super friendly. We found the location to be perfect. It's a bit outside the buzz of the city but we loved that it was really quiet at night. There is a tram stop a few minutes walk away. We bought a 3 day ticket, costing €20 each, and made great use of it. Would highly recommend getting one! We got a taxi to the train station the day we were leaving which was €25 but it was raining and we were getting the train to Paris so it was worth it to not be soaked!

Staff were exceptional ! me and my partner traveled here as a celebration of our anniversary.we picked the penthouse room with the large balcony( which I hope I can request to stay in next time) which was perfect and we hope to return again shortly. My partner came down with the flu while staying and all staff offered e paracetamol and cold remedy’s to help , great hospitality ! The breakfast both mornings was only fault we found unfortunately, most of the English breakfast stuff was more cold than hot, but staff did try amend this I think it was just that we were in that early for breakfast. So yes enjoyed our stay and hope we to return in the future.thank you

Great staff who were very friendly and extremely helpful, location was good too. It was walking distance into the main area of Amsterdam however it was set in a trendy downtown area with great bars and restaurants close by. They had free luggage storage for later flights. We Would definitely recommend and will return next time we visit Amsterdam. Wonderful stay.

Good price in a rather central location (however not the tourist hotspot), staff was friendly in welcoming us

The location is amazing and had some fab restaurants and bars local to it. We drove from England and did a park and ride from P+R Bos en Lommer which worked perfectly. The majority of staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast had a good range to choose from.
