Reviews

The following independent reviews were entered by guests after their stay at the hotel.

Anonymous Refurbished room makes stay easier !: 3 January 2012; 5.6; + If you can avail yourself of the refurbished rooms then it will make your stay more comfortable. Free internet works quite well, and the shuttle service as well.; - Staff for the most part too direct to the point of being confrontational. One must ask how to turn on heat in room and one must ask for remote control for TV at front desk (but this not explained at check-in). No hand soap in bathroom to wash hands.

CARSTEN BRANDT Not a nice stay: 10 November 2011; 3.6; + good location, fine shuttleservice; - Poor service at check-in. No knowledge of bonus Air-line/hotel points/bonus programes. No smile - just a negative start to my stay at your hotel

Anonymous Great no hassle shuttle service: 2 November 2011; 8.8; + Great shuttle service, never had to wait too long. Easy access to and from the airport and train station to central Amsterdam. The room was clean and modern. Hotel staff answered any questions and were pleasant.; - None I can think of.

Anonymous A bit pricey, but comfortable place to stay before your flight.: 24 October 2011; 7.6; + Good place to stay if you have an early flight the next morning. The shuttle service is excellent!; - When describing how to get to the hotel from the airport, the instructions where good until you got off the bus at the bus stop and didnt know where to go from there. maybe just add a line that says walk towards the McDonalds and the hotel is behind it.

J. Mcgee Excellent hotel for airport stop over: 6 October 2011; 9.6; + Very clean comfortable hotel, with excellent service.

CHRIS DOYLE Comfortable & Cosy Hotel in Perfect Location for Airport: 27 September 2011; 8.6; + Free shuttle to and from Airport to Hotel Nice Bar Well-stocked mini-bar in room Comfortable Lounge Area Friendly, helpful staff; - No problems

Anonymous Good location, decent room/rate but frustrating shuttle service.: 27 September 2011; 6.8; + Very reasonable price for proximity to Schiphol (airport and train station), clean, comfortable, free shuttle, pool; - Unreliable shuttle -- van was too small and twice in 24-hours we had to wait another half-hour because it was full; another time we waited an hour because the scheduled shuttle just didn't show up. This almost ruined a day of touring because we wasted so much time and missed train connections. Didn't appreciate driver "joke" ("You could ride a bike?") Streetside room was rather noisy from freeway and occasional airplanes.

Anonymous One night near Airport: 25 September 2011; 5.8; + The simming pool is large, however there is no chair around. Changing room is well equiped; - I had a noisy room on first floor, w/o view. I couldn't manage to use the looker. Hotel would take benefit to have renovation. Not really a 4 start hotel.

Anonymous Decent hotel, good value for money: 22 August 2011; 7.0; + shuttle service good; - dissapointing to find restaurant shut on a saturday, girl in charge said we could eat in lobby, not ideal for a romantic night out! When asked why it was not open she said it was shut because it was shut! ( very helpful!)

MRS MOSLEY Excellent hotel, very comfortable stay.: 3 August 2011; 9.8; + Reception staff very helpful, room very comfortable, good to have a free shuttle to and from airport.; - None apart from not being there long enough to use the gym and pool!!!

Anonymous Adequate for an overnight stay: 7 July 2011; 7.8; + Good energy conservation. Good value and service in the restaurant.; - The mattresses need replacing. They were lumpy and uncomfortable. Rooms were rather small.

Anonymous Proximity and shuttle service to airport is good: 6 July 2011; 7.4; + Overall cleanliness is okay; - 1. Dissapointed with the free wireless internet facilties in the room because the connection was very poor and was not able to access the internet at all. More computers with internet connection should be provided at the lobby area. 2. Room facilities of complimentary coffee and tea was not provided.

kok yin Tan Convenient airport location: 5 July 2011; 10; + free shuttle bus; - air plane noise ok if you have ear plugs

Anonymous Good value for one day stay: 5 July 2011; 8.0; + Food, Service and people where very good. Could smoke in hotel which was a plus for me. Food and beer was ok priced.; - The only minus point was that the breakfast was well over priced. I recomend you stay at the hotel but don't pay extra for the breakfast.

Yori Zwols Not the best hotel, but fine for catching early flights from Schiphol.: 4 July 2011; 5.6; + We stayed here because we had a flight at 6:45am from Schiphol Airport. The staff is very friendly and they helped us get a taxi to the airport. There is also a bar where we had a drink the night before. The hotel looks moderately luxurious. Apart from our comforters (see below), the hotel is clean, the rooms are quiet, the curtains are thick, so we had a good night sleep.; - To our surprise, the brown comforter on our bed had mysterious white stains on it. We were so disgusted by this that we decided to throw it on the floor. In terms of location, this hotel is not that convenient if you have to fly very early in the morning or plan to come in very late at night. The shuttle bus runs from approx. 6am until midnight, so we had to take a taxi. The taxi ride is about 15 euros. This is something to take into account when choosing a hotel in the airport area. Also, there is no breakfast at this early time, but given that breakfast comes at another 13.50 euros per person, we would have chosen not to have breakfast at the hotel anyway.

Anonymous Understaffing means poor quality service and long waiting times!: 27 June 2011; 6.4; + Rooms are clean and comfortable. Shuttle bus is quick and easy. A Smokers Lounge is very welcome.; - Very slow check in and check-out due to understaffing, which is very annoying for tired travellers and those who need to leave in a hurry. No one around to welcome me to the restaurant, and, after 15 minutes waiting i went and got the menu myself. General impression is that there are very limited staff to save the hotel money and so service is poor when it should be great!

Richard Johnstone Good service apart from the airport collection: 10 June 2011; 8.0; + all the facilities you need from an airport hotel; - The pick-up bus stopped about 20-30 metres away from the bus shelter A9-13 (under the bridge). As a result a group of us waited nearly an hour for the next bus, which was quickly filled up & the remainder used the bus under the bridge. The bus drivers should be instructed to stop or move to the A9-13 bus shelter as soon as space becomes available.

Arie Free Shuttle Service to Amsterdam Airport: 6 June 2011; 7.6; + Location to the airport is excellent. Also the shuttle service is fantastic. Also convenient was the breakfast availability.; - Price was a little steep but because the shuttle to the airport was included that made it more affordable

arcangelo merella: 5 June 2011; 5.8; + ottima location per chi arriva con l'aereo e poi deve andare in centro perchè è molto efficacie il collegamento con i treni; - struttura di passaggio.

Will Could be a good hotel if the remove unfriendly staff.: 10 March 2011; 5.6; + Location; - Rude and unfriendly staff during check-in! This cannot be a 4 star hotel! At 7:30am they started to do construction!

David Caddy Not bad, but not great.: 25 February 2011; 7.8; + room was clean and well equipped, good value mini bar; - Very expensive restaurant for the average food that was served.

Saif Lamki Good hotel with friendly and quiet atmosphere: 1 December 2010; 9.8; + Location of the hotel is good (very close to Schiphol airport) with friendly staffs, quiet with no disturbance, internet access is provided free of charge to customers and also transport to and from the airport is free.

Anonymous Good efficient hotel: 15 November 2010; 8.2; + Good service Location Connections with the Airport

Chris W Trahman Convenient, but smelly.: 8 September 2010; 7.4; + Near the airport with free shuttle service Decent pool and exercise facilities; - My room (2321) was a non smoking room, but seemed to get a direct vent from the smoker's lounge downstairs. It seemed to clear when I plugged the bathroom vent with paper. Disgusting! Unlike other Best Western's I've stayed at, the breakfast buffet was not complimentary, but quite expensive.

Spiros Nikolopoulos Convenient but far from the center: 3 September 2010; 8.2; + the reception is very friendly and helpfull.everyday with a smile; - there is no bus to the center of amsterdam

Lynn Dube: 16 August 2010; 6.4; + Shutttle driver very helpful. Reception desk employee was quite short with us and not helpful.; - Cost. I reserved a room for 95 euros and by the time I'd added the buffet breakfst, the price doubled.

Gary Sutton Always good to stay there. Its clean and the service is excellent.: 5 July 2010; 9.6; + I like to stay there as its clean and the service as you enter at the counter and staff at the restaurant are excellent.

AM Very good value and convenience: 4 July 2010; 8.6; + Excellent shuttle service to the airport - frequent trips and the drivers were cheerful and helpful. It's very near a major airport, yet it was quiet enough for a good night's sleep.; - A minor thing : no garbage can in lobby or near front steps - had to ask desk staff to dispose of a banana peel !

Shmuel Other alternatives are better: 20 June 2010; 3.8; + shuttle to airport, once every half hour; - overpriced and very minimal and unhelpful service

Donald Loupret Best Western Amsterdam Airport: 16 June 2010; 3.2; + Airport shuttle; - Room very dirty - walls and carpet stained. Staff no very helpful

Anonymous Stayed there out of sheer necessity;service was very poor.: 1 June 2010; 4.2; + After learning the shuttle system (with absolutely no guidance from the staff) we appreciated the ability to go back and forth to Schiphol to connect with the train system.; - The staff was absolutely unfriendly and not helpful in any way except on our return stay dated May 28-30 when the young lady serving the breakfast went out of her way to greet guests and offer fried eggs/bacon/cheese. Of ALL the staff we had contact with, she had the ready smile and firiendly, professional approach appropriate for hotel staff. One evening we used the bag of chips (1 euro), which was not replaced for the following evening. Then we were charged for a bottle of water from the mini-bar while I had brought my own bottle! Also poor replacement of products such as soap, plastic disposable cups.

Hakim Elmahdy Principal Reserach Engineer: 14 May 2010; 7.8; + Excellent location. Very goodservice. Clean. Free wireless internet; - I gave comfort a low mark because the room was FREEZING all night. The heater (hot water heater) came on for a very short time, but was shut down all night. it came back again early in the morning. As an Air conditiong, heating and cooling Engineer with 35 yeares of experience, I can say that the temperature control in the room is very poor. I hope next time I stay there it would be better. Thank you

Janice Knudsen Good Place to stay near Schipol: 6 May 2010; 8.4; + Lovely pool, sauna, and workout room. Clean, comfortable room.; - With the exception of the restaurant worker, the evening staff on May 4, 2010 was a bit rude and innattentive. The desk clerk actually turned her back on me when I approached the desk for the second time that evening. The morning crew (May 5) was wonderful as was the shuttle service crew.

Stephen Coleman Good Schipol airport hotel.: 26 March 2010; 8.2; + Location and facilities.; - Taller cleaner needed in the Dining Room, very dusty above their height.

Anonymous: 7 October 2009; 6.4; + hotel restaurant had good food. shuttle service to airport was frequent. staff were helpful and polite.; - bathroom was not clean. Bathtub and toilet had hair on them. For the price of the room, it should have been clean.

ian Good clean & friendly hotel: 7 June 2009; 8.4; + Very quiet, even located close to Schiphol Airport. Good shuttle service.; - Coffee making facilities had no cups, and insufficient coffee, sugar, milk etc. Two single beds when a double would have been preferred.

Gabriel Mapeso Excellent place to stay if you do not have kids: 4 May 2009; 8.6; + excellent location if you want to be near the airport. Keep up the shuttle service to the airport.; - difficult to find room for children as a third person. Not only in this hotel but other places as well. An extra room is absurd for a third person child considered an adult above 11 yrs old.

Kenneth Campbell Overall not a hotel that I would use again or recommend.: 3 May 2009; 4.0; + Very positive things to make you special.; - Very noisy...aircraft Expensive what what one gets. Staff - do not project a friendly attitude.

Frank This hotel is fair value and good service.: 28 January 2009; 8.6; + free internet much appreciated

Peter Not a bad hotel.: 25 January 2009; 7.8; + Clean. Close to the airport. Reasonable prices. Front desk manager was helpful.; - Service in the restaurant was very slow. The food was warm rather than hot. I was too tired to make a fuss about it.
