Description

The NH Krasnapolsky Hotel Amsterdam combines rich history with the comforts of today. Any traveller will find something of their likes, with facilities such as a conference centre, beautiful restaurants and tasteful rooms. The location at The Dam means having the historical centre of Amsterdam literally at your feet

The NH Krasnapolsky Hotel Amsterdam originated in 1866, although it formerly functioned as a cafe. The founder, Mr. A.W. Krasnapolsky, commissioned the construction of hotel rooms in the building. This luminous idea formed the catalyst for the makeover from small cafe to the luxurious Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky. Under the one roof you will find a genuine 'village', including a conference centre, fitness room, several restaurants, a convenience store and, above all, the hotel has a private jetty. In case of a long stay, seven nights or more, there is the option of reserving one of the NH Krasnapolsky Apartments.

Discover the incredible wealth in art, culture and history at ease. Amsterdam has a lot in store for you: beautiful architecture, impressive galleries, many interesting museums, romantically illuminated canals and a vivid nightlife. The central location of the Krasnapolsky Hotel at the Dam provides walking accessibility to all areas of interest.

Staying at the NH Krasnapolsky Hotel Amsterdam guarantees spacious rooms, combining style and comfort. Air conditioning, coffee and tea making facilities, mini bar and room lockers are standard facilities in the rooms. The hotel has a glass covered courtyard that can be used for receptions for a maximum of 100 guests. There is also a meeting room for 10 guests.

Food and Drinks

The NH Krasnapolsky has a lot to offer in the culinary provision. You will encounter the Wintertuin (winter garden), The Lounge, Restaurant Reflet and the Golden Palm Bar. All of these establishments emanate a unique atmosphere, though quality is what binds theThe Winter garden
Take a seat in the Winter Garden and enjoy the international breakfast buffet. This extraordinary place to start the day from has been added to the list of new monuments of the city's Rijksmonumenten. The glass roof, supported by a construction of wood and wrought iron, covers the room with a blanket of natural light. Decorations that characterize art, trade and science have been attached to the walls. Consider this an adequate place to meet for lunch
Restaurant Reflet
Restaurant Reflet entails a history at least as interesting as the Krasnapolsky Hotel itself and has also been adopted by the city as a preserved room. In the decoration, elements from around 1885 are preserved, under which there are several paintings and clocks. Relax and take a seat to enjoy a romantic dinner in style. You will have the choice between classical French dishes or delicacies from international cuisine. Menus change with the seasons. The restaurant is open daily from 17:30 to 22:30 h.

Spoil yourself with a high tea or a cup of coffee accompanied by delicacies from the in-house bakery, which can be enjoyed whilst observing The Dam and the Royal Palace from The Lounge. Also the Golden Palm Bar enables you to take a delicious appetizer or to organise a business meeting.

Throughout the hotel wireless internet is available. Cards can be acquired at the business centre.

the winter garden is lovely for breakfast, bar staff are excellent

check in particularly seems to take a long time, and its mostly the computer system rather than the staff. I have stayed twice now and there has on both occasions also been a disagreement going on with a customer while I was checking in. More staff needed.

Not really 5 star more like 3 and should be priced like it!

Handy for Dam Sq/RLD. Looks nice from outside. Large room. Lotsa free toiletries.

lengthy checkin, some cr*p about 100 Euro "deposit" (never heard that rubbish at any other hotels in AMS/NL!) Only stayed here cos I got a deal, and would be livid if I payed full price cos its no better than most 3 star hotels in area. Customer service was poor and room was drab

Very nice hotel

This is the second time I stayed in this hotel and am continued to be impressed by this hotel. Yes, it is expensive even after the online booking discount but given the fantastic location and its amenities, it is worthwhile. With the exception of the couple of points (relatively minor) mentioned below about the reception desk and related services, everything else is outstanding.

When I tried to check in on Sat. around noon, the reception desk area was like a zoo, full of people. I had to wait for about 20 minutes, then there was hesitation with the young lady receptionist. Finally, a young man came over and said curtly "The check in time is 3 pm; all rooms are being cleaned. You'll have to come back at 3 pm." I asked for a Manager and this very nice lady came out; what we eventually did was that I paid extra to upgrade to a larger and better room facing the Dam Plaza and I was able to check in right away. It seems to me that young man could have been trained to be more helpful in a classy hotel like this one. It was a good thing that I asked for a copy of the bill to review the night before I checked out. The major part of my room was prepaid and they made a mistake of charging me the room again in addition to the upgrade charge. The young ladies were very helpful to correct the mistakes.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The location right in the centre of amsterdam was fantastic.

my original room was tiny and not satisfactory at all (and also not equivalent to the room colleagues had been given for less money!) after I complained I was moved to a much superior room and this was great. It was a shame I had to complain to get an appropriate room for the money that I was paying

Not acceptable for a 5 star hotel.

- Location can't be better - Very good service of your concierge staff: my compliments

- we asked for a baby bed, it was not put in the room when we arrived. It was brought later. - we had to ask several times at reception for an extra towel for our child. - room: smells (maybe ex smokers-room?) - old carpet: smells and with old stains - stains of menstruation blood in the bedclothes!!!!!!! - persistent smell of urine in the bathroom - the shower gives dashes of very hot water, which causes burns - 120809; breakfast, 1035h, a couple before us can enter we are refused (having a 23 months old baby)

Nightmare

Great location

Couldn't find our booking on arrival, or that we had paid in advance. Took three visits to reception and over an hour of discussion (arguement)in total to sort out. Rooms not ready even though we had advised early arrival so had to wait around (one room wasn't ready until 5pm)rnOn day of departure Concierge lost one of our bags in storage - took over half an hour to find which meant we had to take a taxi to airport costing Euro 50 instead of the train. In fairness hotel very busy - I have stayed there several times before when everything went smoothly so hopefully this disaster was a one off!!

Unsatisfactory safety procedures

Once we found some staff they were excellent in assisting us to find an exit and to assist my wife up to the fourth floor when she returned from shopping.

No emergency lights or escape signage after 4 hours of no power when we exited our room into a pitch black hall was dangerous and unsafe. An urgent review is required of the emergency proceedures. This is unacceptable in a five star hotel, Amsterdam is not located in a third world country.

Grand Past but Frayed Present

Staff were polite, clean and helpful wherever they could be.

1 - fridge door permanently locked - reception unable to open. 2 - after twenty minutes phoning re fridge, ordered a (sparkling) Perrier and ice. Delivered a clear bottle of still mineral water with no ice. Charged for this. 3 - Room was booked over the internet. Booking form said "bed and breakfast special" Upon arrival was told, after reference to the screen, that breakfast was an extra payment. Later took the booking print to reception (it had been in a suitcase) and was told that a change would be made. When checking out this information was not on the system and I had to go through the booking form again with clerk who needed photocopies to support her reduction of the bill. This made checking out rather lengthy. 4 - the floor mounted cooling box had the control for temperature missing and the fan was extremely noisy. 5 - It was very disappointing to find a five star hotel that did not serve an evening meal on Monday nights. Room service is no substitute for being able to sit round a table with friends and discuss tomorrow's business. 6 - The price of the rooms reflects the past of grand hotel not the present state of the service and amenities.

This hotel is simply wonderful!

This hotel is simply wonderful. I am aware of the fact that some reviews were rather negative. I would suggest that you don't put as much confidence in those negative reviews. My feeling is that they were either from people who are very picky or from people who are so snobbish that they think that they are the King and Queens.

If I have to think hard for "minus points," on the day I left I asked the kid on night duty to wake me up at 5:30 am and he didn't do the wake up call. It's a good thing that I also set my own alarm clock.

Krasnapolsky is a lovely hotel, though lost its luxory of the earlier

The hotel is ok but not as luxurious as it used to be some 15 years ago. Of course the location is wonderful in the city centre. Everything is clean and everything functions on the higher standard level.

The room was well cleaned except one morning. Maybe the stuff misunderstood our staying away. But the big misunderstanding has been that we left the post cards to the business centre where we were told that they would leave on the same day, almost two weeks ago, and they still have not arrived to their destinations. This could of course be a fault of the post organization in the NL. Sending and receiving post cards from France to Finland takes two days.

The hotel is situated in the heart of Amsterdam just across the royal palace. It is within easy walking distance to every place in the centre. Beautiful winter garden.

Room was worn out and bathroon not well cleaned - old dirt in corners, every item chipped. Very unfriendly receptionist. At arrival they blocked payment of whole stay + some extra on a credit card and did not released it when we paid at check-out. Although we are back home for 5 days, the payment still blocked. We were told that that is a standard practice of the hotel and that most customers complain about that. But the hotel does not seem to mind.
