Check in was very efficient - we were early but it was easy to store luggage( and at the end of our stay!) The hotel and public areas were very clean and well presented .Our room had a balcony and overlooked the fountains outside- even though there were many trams outside they couldn’t be heard through the doors.Bed and facilities were very good .Our stay was very good and the position of the hotel was excellent!

Breakfast was excellent, wide fresh selection and able to ask for extras. Bar was pleasant surroundings with both inside and outside seating all staff helpful and friendly. The bedroom was spacious and very clean with tea and coffee facilities. Good storage space. Concierge helpful with local knowledge, advice and trip discount codes.. Near the museum quarter and a large number of restaurants and bars within 5-10 minutes on foot. The 397 bus to and from airport passes 100 metres away and tram stop right outside into old town and Central Station. Great location.

Excellent location for exploring Amsterdam, right next to Leidseplein, few mins from Rijksmuseum, canal tours, easy walk to Vondelpark, inner canal ring, Anne Frank House etc. Close to many bars and eateries/restaurants. Trams stop just outside. Good choice foods at breakfast (buffet only, not cooked to order). We ate elsewhere in the evening, so can't comment on dinner. Nice clean room, large shower, comfy bed and pillows.
