Good location

Room very small, was two single beds pushed together so it was not large enough, no storage.

good price, comfortable, no heat

The location and price was a plus. We paid slightly more than a hostel for 4 nights!

The heat in the room didn't work but after we asked for extra blankets it was absolutely not a problem.

Great location, ring first to confirm room type regardless of listing.

Location! This hotel is smack bang in the middle of the museum district and only a couple of tram stops from the city center.

I booked the "Hot Deal Classic room". I believe the "Classic Room" is different from the "Classic Single Room" however when I arrived I was given the single room on the 3rd floor. The third floor was under renovations and I had to walk past a bunch of building material. On my third morning I was woken by a drop saw right infront of my door. When I left my room in the morning I had to walk through a group of 10 builders on their morning tea break. All of these things were not major issues as I was travelling alone, however I still believe a "hot deal" should still get the same service as any other booking, no less. Be warned that from my experience I think building will still be going on for another 6 months so ring first and confirm your room type and floor.

Central location.Nice staff.

we were charged 150e cash deposit we didn't know about until we got there. We didn't have soap in the bathroom until our fourth day. The cleaning personnel didn't vacuum the carpets. The room was very small and the double bed was a twin bed. There was a lot of construction noise at the hotel.

Nice, central but small

Nice service in reception. Very good breakfast and nice servants. Central location.

It was ordered a room with two separate beds. This was not responded to and one double bed were given instead. Not appropriate for two individual females. The room was very small.

clean and pleasant

the room was clean and comfortable

there was a lot of banging and works when i arrived in the afternoon after a night of travelling i was unable to sleep due to the noise and had to go out until after 6 when the banging finally stopped, I told the reception staff, but they did not offer me alternative room, Also as I arrived alone with my luggage there was no-one to help me up the entrance stairs with the luggage, I was tired and would have apprciated the help, also no-one helped me or showed me to my room, that too would have helped.

Apollo musuem excellent hotel but needs a little more efficiency

Excellent hotel in very central location. Late check out arranged with no problem. Staff very friendly and helpful.

No yogurt available and as I was very sick the whole weekend this was a little disadvantage. Also, no mini bar in room as advertised. Breakfast we did not have appeared on bill. However, this was deducted with no problem.

If only the room matched the foyer!

Close to museums. Great location.

The foyer was slick and modern, but the room was dark and old fashioned and cold. Radiator on wall didn't work, and portable oil filled radiator didn't work either. When I mentioned this I was asked why I didn't ask for an extra blanket! I'm a regular visitor to Amsterdam and have stayed in many hotels around here. This was well below average.

Please update your rooms.

Good location. Free computers in the lobby area. Spacious room and bathroom.

If only the room matched the modern lobby. The room was in terrible need of updating. Old carpet and drapery. Patch work room repairs, eg, foam filling to seal draft spaces in the walls. Room in need of a fresh coat of paint.

Not a very good deal

View from room was nice (PC Hooftstraat) and lobby and restaurant area were nice. Bathroom was clean and new.

Room and furniture were old and worn, carpet was stained and A/C was not working (very bad thing in summer). Taxi fare from Central Train station was very high (EUR 22.50), because this hotel is just (100 yards) outside the "official city center". Not a good deal compared to other hotels in the city center.

Location - near park, near museums, near many restaurants, near bike rental shop. Internet downstairs.

Room is very small. Poor view to inside yard. Breakfast over priced.

Overall good eventhough the classic room is very very small.

book the 14 days advance 'HOT DEAL' package, thought that is the END-best offer but turn out to be changeable to a much lower rate. Not sure if thats the HOtels.nl or the hotel faults. It will be fine if they can help upgrade the room or maybe just a fruit basket or anything with a very little surprise but NOT ATT ALL! Would RECOMMEND to book hotels around 5 days prior to your travel date, you will get a much cheaper rate or maybe you can even upgrade to a better room/hotel!!

One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed at. Tiny room, smelly bathroom with a stupid design (the floor floods when you take a shower). Way overpriced. I'll never go back.

Very nice room, lovely hotel, in a great location for museums and the city. We were able to check in earlier than the 2pm allocated time, which was great for us as it allowed us to freshen up before exploring. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Building works going on outside our room (basement) however they were not noisy so didn't disturb us, just not the best view.

Small but good quality materials in bed and bathroom let down by unmade beds. Covers pulled up rather than the bed being made resulting in poor sleeping quality. Bathroom cleaning also questionable.

A big plus point is definitively the location: a mere 5 min walk from Leidse plein. The double Room Deluxe had a very comfortable bed and the bath room with bath tub was clean.

The total area of the double room including bath room was quite small, ca. 20-25 square meter.

Compared to my last stay, during renovations, this time was more acceptable. The location is excellent. The new decor and atmosphere compliments a modern and effecient hotel. When available, staff where helpful and courteous.

The newly renovated rooms where tiny. I had a classic double where there was simply no space for luggage and only 2 drawers at the bottom of a wardrobe for clothing.I shudder to think what a single would deliver. Indeed, if seated at the desk working, one would have to move to allow the other person to open the bathroom door. A final observation is that reception is under staffed against the demands made of it. Checking out was a 15 minute hassle.
