Michael Hutchinson - 2009-11-10: 10 out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Business trip; Excellent room, far better than rooms I have had in similar grade hotels in which I have stayed in Amsterdam. Would certainly stay again.

Doreen - 2009-10-28: 7.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Central in Amsterdam; Location. Large bed.; Breakfast. Not enough quality for the high price. Bad coffee.

Josette MANZINALI - 2009-10-07: 10 out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; perfect !; Everything was perfect, I will definitively stay there next time I go to Amsterdam and I will recommend this hotel.; none

lam chun mow - 2009-08-10: 8.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; location is excellent and room is comfortable; price is little bit expensive, if possible 20% cheaper would have many chinese friends to stay there.

Daniel Gfeller - 2009-05-31: 7.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Excellent location in the center of Amsterdam; Small bathroom; very noisy during the night, no chance to open the window

Lisa MacDevitt - 2008-10-13: 9.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Outstanding Hotel - Location is in Dam Square!; The location was perfect!!! Close to the train station and staying in close proximity to Dam Square was fabulous! The front desk provided train tickets to purchase, which made it easier when checking out, we had a flight to Denmark and didn't have to worry about transportation.; I was hoping for the rate to be lower, but once arriving and receiving the excellent service, it was well worth it!

Li Bo - 2008-10-06: 6.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Next time I will search for a better hotel; Breakfast is fine. Internet access is available in business center. Location of hotel is satisfied.; Room is too small, just like a cage. When you open the window, you can even reach the balcony of neighbour apartment by hand, which made me very depressive. No king-size bed is available, just patchwork of two single bed. No enough information are provided in reception.

Follick Lamb - 2008-07-14: 8.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Breakfast was very good quality and quantity. Employee's very helpful, pleasant and courteous; The shower head was broken and fell into the tub. The tub stopper system did not work. I appreciate that rooms are a bit smaller than at home but I felt that the room size and location was a bit pricy.

Richard (toffeecrisp) - 2008-07-01: 9.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; The biggest asset for this hotel is its staff. From reception to room service/housekeeping, They ALL represented 'Hospitality personified'

Anonymous - 2008-06-09: 7.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; location to areas for sightseeing was very convenient. also proximity to a tram stop was very nice - couldn't be closer as it was just outside the hotel door! On arrival, consierge offered information on sights and other visitor information. Very helpful. Would consider staying here again.; requested a smoking room and confirmed via phone but when i arrived they did not have me in a smoking room. they did move me the following day but at an additional cost - required a room upgrade. the upgraded room though was nicer than my original "classic" room. cost for weekend night was significantly higher than week rate.

Glenda Rutherford - 2008-05-31: 9.0out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Staff at the front desk was exceptional. Welcoming from the moment we arrived. Very clean, excellent location. Food very pleasing.

mr.and mrs.khalaf - 2008-05-25: 5.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; the location of the hotel is very good,it is fairly clean,the bathroom was smelling slightly damp; the room is smaler than the one on the internet ,it is expensive for the month of may that is well before the summer season,we have 3 star hotels of the same standard in uk

D Garashi - 2008-05-14: 8.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Excellent exercise facility Excellent internet service Very accommodating friendly staff Had all features a traveler would want Great Haring Handel in the alley next door Great access to transportation Bike rental across the street; If you hate crowds may be too close to Dam Square and Central Station for you.

gerard - 2008-05-12: 8.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Great location, right in the heart of everything; Very expensive.

Sheng-Yiao Lin - 2008-05-04: 10 out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; very very good location, good service, friendly staff, highly recommended; a bit noisy from the street

BELTSIOS ALEXANDROS - 2008-04-02: 9.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; I enjoyed every minute of my staying your hotel.; I think you heve to find a way of checking the consumption for the mini bar, its difficult to remember it by my self. specially in cases of early morning checkouts

Vinicius Costa ( Brasil ) - 2008-02-29: 10 out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; I recommend the Hotel, very well located close of everything, front desk staff are very polited, patient etc... also with fluent portughese spoken available. Amsterdam itself is a place to GO !!!; They could not keep their late check out promisse. Please don´t go to their restaurant, the meal is poor and very expensive.

Graeme - 2008-02-26: 8.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Very central - good value for money - friendly efficient staff

amsterdamer - 2008-02-21: 7.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; location is great.junior suites are better option for space etc; there is always something wrong with room ie air con or tv etc ,have stayed here 4 times and each time there is something,they usually knock a discount off bill but its wearing thin now.

Martin - 2008-02-19: 8.0out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Excellent location and staff. I am sure without building work it would have been an excellent experience. However...; Extensive building work was being carried out to the restaurant. This meant excessive noise - Pneumatic drill noise from 9.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. for our 2 day stay. This was not indicated on the web site and not told to us on check in - we were given a sealed envelope detailing this at desk. Therefore no facilities. All complaining. Very poor.

BRYAN - 2008-01-21: 8.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; The Hotel id central in Dam square and close to all services. The deluxe room is spacious ,clean and well equippped and i would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality hotel stay in the centre.all in all a lovely plac eto spend your vacation; the room we had was on the alley to macdonalds where people congregate at all times of the night which causes some unwanted noise.

Sashulya A. - 2008-01-13: 9.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; The location is perfect! The service and the interior of the room is great too, I felt like I'm at my own flat, not in the hotel. Chocolate surprises every evening is a cery pleasant. Plus is also 24h gym! Nespresso in the room it's just fantastic!!!; I don't really feel comfortable with the glass wall to the bathroom and toilet. The restaurant menu is a very short and quite poor, especially for night service, if it was reacher I think that I had eaten at the Hotel more often. And mini-bar could have more range of choises. And housekeepers could clean the rooms better, 'cause they don't even sweep the floor and dust!

FERNANDO (Mexico) - 2007-12-31: 9.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Very warm reception by the staff of the hotel. Great help in trace a lost bag with the Airline until recover and deliver it to our room in less than 8 hours... Very commendable attitude of service... Very good food at their Restaurant... Hotek Locatied in the hart of the best of Amsterdam !!!

graham timmer - 2007-12-30: 9.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; staff are the friendliest and most helpful i have met. really great location, can't be beat.; internet prices are exorbitant. Should be included in the price of the room. i felt a little raped having to pay so much for internet access.

Cathy Wolfe - 2007-12-03: 9.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Our stay was perfect. Hotel quality, comfort and service were superb, and you could not ask for a better, more easy-to-find location for novice travelers. This was our second visit and we will be back again. The easy computer/email access through the business center and a fitness center on the premises (always well-stocked with fresh green apples) were added pluses. I would highly recommend this hotel!; Absolutely none.

Carla - 2007-11-27: 8.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; very very good location; the rooms are a bit too small

Anonymous - 2007-11-19: 8.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Great personal level of service

Stephen D Buchan - 2007-11-18: 8.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; I have stayed in few hotels in Amsterdamm and by far Swissotel is my favorite. The people are great very helpfull and extreamly friendly. I highly recomend this hotel. Lots of english tv shows CNN BBC 1 nad 2 Dicovery National geographics to name a few.; With the dollar in the pits the cost was pretty high,

Sarah Cowley - 2007-11-04: 10 out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; We had a problem with a shower whch overflowed and flooded the bathroom we were instantly transferred and were helped with move. The room was an upgrade which we thoroughly enjoyed at no extra cost.; No minus points, this is my third visit the Hotel is great.

Abdulraheem alfahim - 2007-10-28: 6.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; small rooms and expansive. service is very lousy

Anonymous - 2007-10-07: 6.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; The position of the hotel.; For the second time we had the problems with the room. We got the worst room in the hotel. We had to be very strick too get the better room. We want a smoking room and got non-smoking. To complain every time on holiday is very unpleasant. we had the feeling that we are not the same guests as others and this is really very stupid, because the price is the same for all.

Boston - 2007-09-09: 9.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Brilliant spacous rooms, very nice staff who exceed great customer service all the time. Plus we asked for a view of Dam square and we got the view which was out standing!; instuctions on how to use the coffee machine, and more coffee supplies.

Anonymous - 2007-09-02: 9.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Very quiet, altough it is in the centre. Short distance to walk to almost anywhere.. :)

Kent Martin - 2007-08-30: 9.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Staff were very courteous. Fitness and Business Centres were great!; Unfortunately the concierges were unfamiliar with local resturants.

John Grehan - 2007-08-23: 9.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Excellent Quality, Friendly (important when away from home!), good food, good service, central location to everything; A little expensive if staying for more than 4 or 5 days.

Jacob J. Meister - 2007-08-13: 9.0out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; I have stayed at Swissotel Amsterdam several times and have always been happy with my experience. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The location couldn't be better and the rooms are well designed, clean and spacious. I have stayed with both family and friends and have always enjoyed the experience.; Breakfast and wi-fi are not included in room rate. Pillows could be more comfortable.

Zeev Paz - 2007-08-07: 9.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Staff was very helpful, always smiling and very pleasent. The location is excellent.; Wireless is a bit expensive - better to login using the mcdonalds network (search for it ...).

Anonymous - 2007-08-06: 2.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; location; asked for double/queen/king -> got twin tiny bathroom small room

Nati - 2007-08-05: 9.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Best location!!! internet services, very nice stuff; a window with no view (another building's wall), would be nice if breakfast was included in the price

N.Parker - 2007-08-05: 6.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Location,Cleanliness,Attentive staff,; We asked to be moved because our superior room had a view of two brick walls and was very dark,ended up in a normal room which still did not have a very good view.Most rooms in this hotel will not offer good views. Way over priced if a view is required

Anonymous - 2007-07-31: 9.6out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Great rooms. Room prices. Fitness room. Stayed three nights. Went to Brussels (stayed at a 5 star hotel for twice the price, Swissotel was much better in all areas) and came back to this hotel for one night. I will be returning to this hotel.; Expensive wireless internett. But it is not the worst. Free internett at the business center (=three pc and a printer).

Nitschmann - 2007-07-30: 8.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Very pleasant hotel , great; It is a pity that the " Couèttes " " dekbedden" are made of some kind of artificial substance, they are very warm you swet in your bed at night in the summer.

Lfamily - 2007-07-29: 8.4out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; it's a very nice hotel. the room was a bit small.

Nigel and Agnes - 2007-07-27: 8.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Superb Position, excellent overall level of service; Service at Breakfast could be improved - a little chaotic at times

Horst Schäfer, Usingen/Germany - 2007-07-22: 9.8out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Te hotel is located perfectly. Most points of interest are in a walking distance. Very kindly and attendtively staff, nice room. In all it was a very pleasant stay. We come again.; None

Business traveller - 2007-06-10: 8.2out of 10; ReviewsSwissôtel Amsterdam; Excellent service Excellent breakfast - a bit expensive, but really set you up for the day Although the room was small, it was well appointed Don't get me wrong - the minus points are in the context of what could be improved rather than direct criticisms or complaints - this is an excellent hotel and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again!; Wireless was expensive - up to 22 Euros per day! TV couldn't be put on 'sleep' No radio (either independent or through TV)
