Have stayed on 6 occasions.Nothing is too much trouble. The up front staff are helpful and friendly. The rooms I have had are large with all the expected mod cons, Very clean and all have had a bath as opposed to a shower. 24 hour reception and also two very nice modern annexes, Excellent and Varied buffet breakfast. There is also a bar and nice restaurant. In summer a very large terrace in front of hotel where you can eat and drink.
Ideally situated across from Central Station. One minute walk to the Damrak or strool along the Zeediyk for three mins and you are in The Red Light and Chineses area.No long walks or taxi rides after a night out.
Rooms on the front look out across the square towards Central Station. The Chet Baker suit, which I have stayed in, is steeped in atmosohere!!
The Airport shuttle bus stops right outside at Brabazon Palace Hotel,righr next door.

I stayed here because my first, second, third choices, etc. for hotels were unavailable. In fact I had a list of at least 20 hotels I would rather have stayed at based on traveller reviews, etc. However, this was one of the few places with rooms available that weekend.
We paid €150 for a twin room which to me was outrageous for what we got, but for Amsterdam standards I think that was a fair price. Breakfast (which was fairly good) was included in the price as were all taxes. Please note that you're expected to pay for the duration of your stay upon checking in.
Our room was quite spacious although a bit dated, and it was certainly not refined: different parts of curtains didn't match, our "wardbrobe" doubled as a storage room for the hotel (there was an unused toilet bowl in there!). However it was clean and that was important.
The hotel also has the dubious honour of being the place where jazz great Chet Baker fell to his death in 1988. There is a plaque on the front of the hotel paying tribute to him.
All in all, I'd say it's an OK place to stay if you're looking for a place to sleep after exploring the city.
