Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had very comfortable and clean rooms. The breakfast was busy but very good, the dinner had limited choices but was okay, and the bar was very cozy with attentive staff who even remembered our drink preferences. However, the rooms lacked care and style, featuring open shelving that was not easily accessible, including at ground level.
The hotel is ideally located for families with children, offering the convenience of Nespresso coffee in the room. However, some aspects like the dated bathroom and being across the street may not meet all expectations.
I stayed at this hotel and found it to be the perfect balance of comfort and convenience. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, making my stay very comfortable. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience. The location was central and ideal for exploring Amsterdam without needing a bike. However, the dining options were a bit pricey, especially if you had dietary restrictions. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel's location is fabulous, very central and close to key attractions in Amsterdam. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, offering a canal view. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to assist guests. Although the dining options were good, the restaurant could not accommodate the volume of people during busy times.
The hotel provided comfortable and quiet rooms, although a bit airless at times. The service was exceptionally attentive and efficient, going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The location was superbly central, making it convenient for exploring Amsterdam. The dining experience exceeded expectations, although pricing may not suit all preferences.
The Radisson Blu was a great choice for my stay. The rooms were fine, and any minor issues were quickly resolved. The location was perfect for exploring the city, and the dining experience, while not perfect, had its highlights. Overall, a recommended stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers spacious and very comfortable rooms with bathrooms meeting expectations, but there were issues with noise from outside traffic and cold drafts due to single pane glass, especially challenging for older guests. The service was a mixed experience with persistent inquiries about check-out time but pleasant interactions overall. The central location is ideal for arrival at Amsterdam Centraal, yet detours due to road closures can be a hassle. The dining options were pricey, with limited availability during specific hours. The hotel offers facilities like room service, dry cleaning, and tours/ticket assistance making it a fairly convenient stay overall.
The hotel rooms were a good size with all the necessary amenities and a central location, making it a great choice for a stay. The service was friendly but could have been more efficient at times. The dining experience was above average, and the facilities met expectations.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The room was clean and spacious, and the staff were helpful. However, the price was a bit high due to the season. The location was convenient, close to Dam Square and the Red Light District.
The hotel is right in the center, away from the train station and red light district, but just a short walk from main shopping areas and museums. The rooms are comfortable but on the smaller side for the price paid. The cleanliness is top-notch with very comfy beds, though a bit of a climb with stairs inside the room. The service is a mix of extremely friendly, professional, and helpful staff, but with a slight issue of a broken air conditioner. The location is superb for couples exploring the city center on foot. The dining experience is generally good, with excellent staff available until late morning. Overall, the hotel provides a good experience, though it might be expensive for what it offers.
My stay at the hotel was a wonderful experience. The rooms were well-appointed and perfect for city exploration, with a great range of fresh breakfast options. However, the sofa bed setup was a bit disappointing, housed in a modernized old building across the street. Despite this, it slightly affected the enjoyment of our weekend break.
The hotel is located close to various attractions, with spacious and comfortable rooms. The service was a mix of rude behavior and excellent assistance, and the dining options were on the pricier side but overall good. The location was convenient but might be a challenge for those with mobility issues.
The hotel offers well-appointed and very comfortable rooms, complete with bathrobes and slippers, just like the ones advertised for the junior suites. The linens are of great quality, ensuring a cozy stay. The service, while mostly accommodating, had moments that weren't the most pleasant, especially close to closing time. The location is very convenient, being only 5 minutes from the Rokin metro station, connecting easily to major attractions and transportation hubs. The dining experience is delightful, with an excellent variety of choices despite some issues with poor lighting in certain areas. Overall, a comfortable and friendly stay with some minor hiccups.
The hotel rooms, although set up with three beds, only had 2 towels and bath towels each, were quite old and needed renovation. The staff were incredibly helpful, although breakfast wasn't available.
The hotel was not what we expected, with a quirky touch to the rooms, but the service truly stood out with the exceptional staff going above and beyond. The location was right in the heart of the vibrant Red Light District, ideal for exploring Amsterdam, but the dining experience was below par in terms of space and food quality.
