“We had a lovely stay here, despite being under renovation the staff were on hand for anything we needed. Based right across from the Artiz zoo it's a great location for a few days away. Easy transport links via tram, would definitely stay here again when. In Amsterdam.”
“I usually don’t do reviews but this place truly deserves a higher rating. From the second I arrived to the second I left everything was perfect! I’ve stayed at many 5 star hotels and even there, I have never had such a genuine and friendly experience with staff. Usually it seems as they put on a fake smile because it’s their job, but not here. Everyone truly was so warm, welcoming and kind, fulfilling all emergency requests. No matter what I needed, they made it possible! Not even a late checkout was an issue here. I stayed in the Superior King room and I was pleasantly surprised of how spacious everything was. The pictures definitely made it seem much smaller. Yet the modern and bright rooms perfectly represent what the rooms looked like, including a nice view with beautiful sunlight in the morning. The location was perfect, everything was reachable within a short walk. Yet a much better experience than being right in the center. This was my first time staying here but definitely not the last! -Big thank you to the Team, you made my trip perfect”
