Y.A.M. Lansink-Lucas Goede service, fijne accomodatie en een ontbijtbuffet met volop keuze: 29 May 2011; 7.4; + goede service: - toezicht bij opbergen en ophalen van bagage bij verlaten van de kamer na het toegestabe termijn. - bellen van taxi. - vriendelijk prersoneel.; - -opnieuw moeten invoeren omdat de gegevens van een vorig bezoek aan NH-hotel te Arnhem weekend van 22 januari j.l.. - rooklucht op de gangen en in de kamer.

Pierre-Antoine Champin Pleasant and very convenient: 17 April 2011; 8.2; + Very good standing hotel next to the Tropen museum. At walking distance from Muiderport train station, and litteraly on the tram 9, which leads you right through the city center. Also, the staff was really friendly.; - Not exactly cheap, and the free wifi in the lobby was very slow (paying wifi in the room is possible, with better bandwidth).

Max Amazing place: 25 October 2010; 10; + great place, really, fabulous rooms, amazingly friendly service, great location yet quiet next to park.; - non

Renato Couto Vale a pena!: 11 June 2010; 7.2; + Localização Atendimento do pessoal Acomodação em seu espaço; - Muito quente internamente as áreas internas Falta frigobar

Sarah Good value in a nice area: 18 January 2010; 8.8; + I really like this hotel and stay here often. It is good value, particularly if you book more than a week in advance, with larger than the average Amsterdam hotel room. Service is friendly and I like this part of town although it may not be central enough for some. It's a short tram ride to the centre.; - Breaksfast is not included and rather expensive, although it is a good spread. I just skip it and have a broodje in a cafe, of which there are many near by - I recommend the Ponteneur. Maxwells and Boom.

Jean-Marc Holder Unsatisfactory hotel: 19 November 2009; 4.2; + Sadly none.; - Far everything except the adjoining Tropen musem. Limited amenities in room (ex. no minibar), few international TV channels, no free internet. Deceptive internet policy; advertised as a flat rate for 24 hours but with a limit on speed and the amount downloaded...outrageous!

Marcela Doubkova NL saving environment: 22 October 2009; 9.0; + Comfort, great view, great design, reasonable price, I appreciate you saving environments via limiting the heating and water use!; - Maybe only the entrance from the Bus station - it is rather hidden.

Jessica A Mejia Great Amsterdam stay.: 15 September 2009; 6.2; + Great place, very cozy. 10 mts from the Center.

Richard Noon Great hotel, great service and a really comfortable bed!: 24 August 2009; 9.8; + The beds were really comfortable; - None

noa Bem localizado, excelente vista e muito calmo.: 9 June 2009; 7.8; + Excelente vista, muito calmo e a uma distancia de 15mn a pé do Centro. Paragem tram à porta.; - Falta de bicicletas para alugar.

Anonymous Good stay: 3 May 2009; 7.8; + location was good, rooms were clean, beds were good, quiet. price quality was good.; - early in the morning the roommaid made a lot of noise, the bar was closed at 23.00 altough there were about 14 visitors at 22.30. The bar maid allready cleaned up the bar and wasn't all time behind the bar.

Steven Jarzyna: 6 April 2009; 10; + on arrival we were told that this hotel was fully booked and were transferred to NH City Centre Hotel by taxi. The City Centre Hotel was much better for us as it's location was excellent.

Anonymous: 24 March 2009; 7.8; + Nice, clean and quiet hotel room.; - Breakfast was very expensive considering the standard. Internet very expensive, €10 for 1 hour and the considerable restrictions on use was VERY disappointing.

Sarah Maddison Good choice relative to other hotels in same price range: 8 February 2009; 6.8; + Good standard of room compared for similar priced rooms in the city. Most hotels in Amsterdam are terribly overpriced in my opinion though.; - Breakfast was laughably expensive, you can be in a cafe in the plantage area in five minutes having a lovely broodje and coffee for a fraction of the money.

hooper Clean & comfortable: 18 January 2009; 8.0; + we were very greatful for the recommendation of a place to eat that was close handy. We don't speak the language & were reliant on local information where ever we stayed. The breakfast price was too expensive for us despit it's convenience especially with the exchange rate.

Schaps, Klaus-Peter We would come again: 4 January 2009; 8.8; + friendly staff; - prize of the parkling lot at the end was different to the prize, which was said on the homepage of the hotel! There was said, that the prize is 17 Euro/day. In the hotel they said, that the prize is 20 Euro/day.

Vaananen A very good no nonsense hotel for a traveling academic person.: 16 November 2008; 9.0; + For me, this hotel is near my job at the university so it is convenient.

Claessens: 25 November 2007; 8.2; + Night desk officer VERY professional and helpful. Thank you!; - WIFI access is quite expensive. Some much more competitive hotels in Holland provide this service for free. Nowadays, this should be a "must have" for professional tavellers.

Susan: 18 November 2007; 8.4; + The hotel was pretty clean and located in a great spot if you dont want all of the noise of the cuty center,a tram stopped right outside the front and could get you downtown in about 10 minutes,a bit far to walk.
