the hotel for the price was not bad. i paid 90 euros per night when i stayed there last new years. the room was great, my only complaint was the food in the restaurant off the lobby. but then i ordered BBQ ribs and i guess the dutch just dont make them the way im use to. they were terrible!! then the pizza i paid $18 american dollers for the worst small pizza i have ever had in my entire life. other than that i would stay here again i just would'nt eat there.
Near Schipol the Ibis Hotel has nice basic rooms. Nothing spectacular but very handy if you need a place near the airport. If I remember right you can catch a bus into the center of the town.
I remember the night manager was a very sarcastic guy when i checked in.. but i think that was down to having a couple of customers-from-hell before me... he was very nice to me. :)
Considering the double room cost about €160, it was quite small, i've stayed in cheaper hotels with more facilities in the room.
However the bed was comfy and the shower and TV worked, and it was on expenses, so that was fine by me! :)
Because I checked in so late, and had an early start, I did not have a chance to explore the hotel and try out their services.
However the location is great for the city centre.
Directions: From Centraal Station, walk down PrinsHendrikskade til you get to the crossroads of Oosterdook bridge & Folienstraat, turn right, keep walking past the car underpass and IBIS on the right hand side of the street.
Nicely located, 3 stars with a double room with included shower a good deal. Right around the corner is an Albert Heijn, and the Waterlooplein is only a few blocks away. The breakfast was decent, and having a bar available was a bonus. Modern facilities, and a health club is beside the hotel.
