    This hotel is located 5 minutes walk from the train station, on the edge of the Red Light District.

    Our room was tiny and noisy but clean.

    You get what you pay for!

    Room had a bathroom.

    Hotel has five floors without elevator.

    Made up of several 18th century merchant houses, a paper factory and a 19th century vicarage, integrated with modern architecture - the Radisson SAS Hotel is a pleasant place to base yourself when visiting Amsterdam.

    I have to admit, I was expecting to get a more historical feel to this hotel having read about it's past life - but apart from the high ceilings in the guest rooms, there really is no evidence or feel of the former use of the original buildings! The modern glass atrium as you enter really is quite impressive to see though!

    It's close to everything & just a 10 minute stroll to Central Station, and it has all the amenities you would expect from a 5* hotel.

    We were situated in the building across the road - accessed by an underground link. I was dubious when I was first told this and had a vision of a damp gloomy warren of tunnels to negotiate - but my doubts were unfounded - it was quite the opposite!! Our room was just a short walk to the lifts, reception and main entrance.

    There is a gym in this hotel, but I didn't get to look at it! There is also a Restaurant that has a strong emphasis on asparagus! From what I could see of the menu - it was considerably expensive - and asparagus seem to be used in nearly every meal choice - even the deserts...different!!!

    This hotel just opened in January 2005, and they really need some suggestions for improvement. It's small and clean, there is no lift and lots of narrow steps. The breakfast room is large and they offer eggs, meat, breads, jam, juices, tea, coffee, and cereal.
    If you are TALL, don't stay here...the beds are very small and uncomfortable. There are no towel racks or hooks in the tiny bathroom, which is a pain. The phones did not work so that you can call out and the credit card machine was "broken". I've heard that many small hotels in Amsterdam try to get you to pay cash so that you they don't have to pay a commission. We refused to pay cash and he took credit card information to charge when the machine was fixed.

    The only good thing was.....it is clean and close to Leidseplein!

    We have stayed at the Art Gallery Hotel several times (so called because it is opposite the Rijksmuseum). It is very centrally situated on Weteringschans - just off the Leidseplein. The rooms are clean and comfortable with ensuite facilities. (If you get to know the staff -they might upgrade your room for you :)) The double/twin rooms at the front of the building are light bright and airy and have a little balcony where you can relax and watch the Amsterdammers go by on their bikes. The hotel is run by Ed and Ed and they are very friendly and helpful and are happy to make bookings and reservations for you. (They keep a huge bowl of jelly beans on the counter too! :)

    The breakfast room is at basement level and is small but nicely furnished. Breakfast is substantial continental fare, bread,cereal, cheese, ham, fruit, juice, tomatoes and cucumber - and, best of all - Mohammed makes a lovely HUGE omlette every morning. Bring your own t-bags though, continental tea-bags are not so strong as those in the UK.

    The stairs are VERY steep and VERY narrow -no fun when you are lugging bags and rucksacks etc up them after a long days traveling - but just smile nicely and someone might just carry them for you!!!!

    The walls are a little thin - so bear this in mind when you are giggling hysterically over nothing! You might get a short fat German businessman knocking on the door in a fluffy white bath robe asking you to keep the noise down!

    If you ask Ed (or whoever is on reception) for the key to the terrace, you can sit out and enjoy the lovely views over Amsteram from the roof top.

    It is VERY central and soo convenient for canal boat tours, bike hire, Leidseplein and the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseums. I am planning to stay here for a 5th time so that speaks for itself really!!

    by Mariajoy
    When we arrived at the Hotel Amsterdam we were a bit unsure that we had made the right decision to choose this place as we had always had such a good stay at our usual place. The other downside was that it was a little further out of the centre than we are used to but the walk did us good :))

    There were a couple of plus points though - this place had a lift built by the lift manufacturer *Schindler* - (Schindler's Lift - just a little Maria and Petra joke that had us giggling stupidly everytime we got in it) and internet access (our regular Amsterdam hotel had neither - but the staff were friendlier - guess you can't have everything!)

    The room was nice and clean and had tv, hairdrier, all the usual hotel room stuff - including a fridge and French windows opening onto a small balcony.

    Breakfast was the usual continental affair, rolls, hardboiled eggs, cheese, cold meat, yogurt, juice, cereal, tea, coffee, small fruit cakes etc etc. The woman from reception would sit there every morning - watching the guests - I don't know what she thought we were going to do... steal the fruit for our lunch or something... but I was amazed at how she managed to be so glammed up for the day in 6 inch heels and chignon hair at 8am in the morning!

    And she really didn't like us... we were waiting for our taxi to take us to the station and there was no friendly goodbye... just a straight faced...*the taxi is coming!*. There was another couple also waiting and she was smiling and gushing effusively *Oh I hope you enjoyed your stay...do come back and visit us soon and have a safe trip*.

    Given a choice - I would probably stay somewhere else next time.

    It has a lift!!!

    1. Lobby of the Rho Hotel

    After a lot of clicking around on the internet I have come to the conclusion that hotel rooms in Amsterdam are more expensive than in most other cities. For a small single room under the roof with its own toilet and shower here at the Rho Hotel I paid 99 Euros per night, which is nearly twice as much as I paid for a similar room in Paris a few weeks later.

    The hotel was okay, though. Breakfast was included, and the location is very central.

    They say the building was once used by an Amsterdam gold trading company. The reception and lobby were originally a theater, built in 1908 in Art-Deco style.

    Winston Hotel: Good for tourists

    Winston Hotel's Lobby
    by vtnyc
    I stayed at the Winston upon recommendation of some locals who advised of it's proximity to Amsterdam's nightlife.

    Indeed, it was one block from the Red Light District. You could walk out the lobby and within one block find yourself amidst the seductive doorways of the Red Light District, in three minutes you found yourself in Dam Square, and in 7 in Centraal Station. Winston Hotel is good for a tourist who is not traveling on business and doesn't mind simple, raw accomodations.

    I use the word "raw" for a reason. As in raw materials. Rooms don't come equipped with private phones, so you have to use the pay phone in the lobby which is 2 euros for a 5 minute call to a local cell phone. Nor do rooms come automatically with a remote for the TV's, but with 20 euro deposit, they will give you a remote. If you don't have an adapter for the electric outlets, a 10 euro deposit will fetch you one.

    Beyond these limitations however, the stay was enjoyable. The staff was ALWAYS friendly and willing to help with navigating the streets of Amsterdam as well as assist in answering any other questions. I can't say one bad thing about the service I received in the 7 nights I was there.

    I know others may disagree, but my room was clean and served me well for my purpose in Amsterdam. I wasn't there to spend time in the hotel like I would in a beach resort in Mexico, I was there to spend time exploring the canals, the cobblestone streets, and sidewalk cafes of Amsterdam.

    Winston also includes a breakfast from 8-10 am sharp every morning. Don't show up 10 minutes after 10 though, I said "sharp" and they don't hesistate to close the doors to the buffet right at 10. Corn flakes, rolls, individually wrapped liverwurst, various jellies, butter, cheeses, salami's, coffee, orange juice, and brown hard boiled eggs were served every morning--all you can eat too.

    I'd say the primary clientelle was between 20-30 years old, but there were plenty of older 50's and 40's spotted too.

    See Winston Hotel pics for more info.

    Damrak is to Amsterdam what Broaway is to Times Square. This hotel is one block from Damrak and one block from the Red Light District but still SAFE for the solitary traveler.

    Lilly Houseboat

    At very short notice I was looking for accommodation in Amsterdam and the Lilly Houseboat came up on a search. After several previous visits staying in hotels, I had always wanted to stay on a houseboat and I booked this fantastic accommodation through Lovingamsterdam. It was excellent value for money with central heating, two bedrooms (a double and a twin bunk), Kitchen (inc microwave, dishwasher etc etc) and living room area with TV, CD player etc etc, and of course a shower room with a lovely hot power shower!!. Everything is spotlessly clean, modern and well maintained and there are dozens of other things included, plug adaptors, hairdrier, towels, - the list is endless.. you will find all kinds of things available, including some food stuffs too! Just remember to leave it exactly as you found it (otherwise your credit card will be charged!).

    The boat is situated on a quiet residential canalside with good access to nearby public transport (you can see and hear the trams on the opposite side of the canal) There is a lovely outside deck area where you can watch canal life (mostly in duck form!!) while sitting with your morning coffee :))

    It's a houseboat! It ROCKS! (when you least expect it!!!) That dizziness isn't the after effects of the night before - it's a boat on water and sometimes the motion is much stronger than you expect. They look completely stable from the water's edge - but sometimes the light swings and your drinks ripple!

    We stayed at the Marriott, as I always try to do, because of course the stellar quality that the Marriott name represents worldwide. Well, that , and I have a friend that works for Marriott, so we got a dirt cheap rate! As far as the price, in our case, less than 60 Euros, it could not be beat! But I have to say that we would have been more than satisfied staying here and still paying a much higher rate.
    The location in our opinion could not have been better. Located right across from the Leidseplein, where there are loads of restaurants, tons of shopping, nightlife, and coffeeshops. Also just a short walk is the Museumplein, including the Rijksmuseum and the VanGogh museum. Vondelpark is located just behind the hotel, and the Heineken brewery is about a 10 minute walk.
    The staff was excellent! The concierge, as well as the front desk gave us great recommendations and directions walking and using the trams. We were able to purchase museum tickets there at the hotel in order to avoid the lines. The wait staff in Quoy restaurant were superb. Great buffet breakfast served there. Characters lounge is a great place to have a couple of drinks. Maid service was superb!
    The rooms were quite nice. We had a nice view over looking the Leidseplein. Air conditioning in the room would have been great to have, but it was a little chilly, or at least for a couple of guys from Texas, so it was not really needed. Also nice to have a complementary in room safe. Room and bathroom were very clean.
    The only complaint that we had was the 20+ Euro charge per day for in room high speed internet. A little pricey when competitors are offering it for free.
    All and all, a wonderful stay here, and I would recommend it highly to anyone! Just do your internet surfing elsewhere!!!

    This hotel was a bit of a splurge for me, but I sure did like it! Our room overlooked the Kaizersgracht Canal and was very nicely furnished, and decent size. Very comfy indeed, with bathrobes and slippers, bath salts, and a mini-bar, to mention a few items. There's a great dark-wood bar across from the lobby, too.

    The Toren's in an excellent location, very central yet quiet, on the canal. The people working here seemed eager to please, too.

    In the mornings there's a buffet breakfast, but it's extra, not included in the price of the room.
