With a late arrival at 11pm I was hoping for a welcoming face at the Memphis - but almost immediately on approaching the reception area it was clear that was not going to happen! Clearly I presented a major inconvenience to the lady at reception interrupting her counting cash as I filled in my details on the relevant card that... More

Great area to stay in. Very safe. Residential area. Nice breakfast place near by in the small piazza. No smoking in the rooms - which sucks cause its a large hotel so you have to go up and down the elevator just to have a smoke. Tram is conveniently steps away from the hotel. I highly recommend purchasing an unlimited... More

We stayed at the Memphis for a long weekend in April. As we arrived on early flight we left our bags at the station in the lockers and explored central Amsterdam before taking the tram to the hotel in the late afternoon.We did the same when we left on the Monday as our flight wasn't until late. We were impressed... More

I stayed here for a long weekend. It's close to tram lines, or alternatively you can hire a bike to ride around. There are some shops near by e.g. Pain de Quotidienne where you can have breakfast if you don't want to have it at the hotel, and a mini supermarket round the corner. It was a nice quiet area...

As a family of 4 (2 adults and a 4 & 5 yr old) we had a great stay in this hotel. The service was great and the location was within walking distance of main shopping areas and down town. If you did not want to walk far you could catch the tram from down the road. The room was... More

This hotel is based in a lovely area near the museum quarter. The location is great and we walked everywhere from it, however it is not a 4* hotel. The staff are lovely, really helpful and friendly but the rooms and some of the decor is quite dated. All in all, i'd recommend the hotel as a 3* but a... More

Very pleased with the Memphis hotel. It is a city hotel that is both small but modern for those who wish some comfort but do not intend to spend hours each day in the hotel, therefore there is no spa/pool/gym etc, but the rooms are adequate sized for a double or twin beds and have the necessary comforts and on...

I was somewhat nervous about staying here after reading some of the past reviews, but when I got here I was pleasantly surprised. This is a small boutique hotel, which is centrally located and easily assessable to public transportation. The selling point here is the GREAT staff, which was very friendly and helpful. They gave me tips on transportation, places... More

I was very surprised when we saw the hotel form the exteriors as it did not potray whata 4* hotel would seem to be like. On arrival, the receptionist was very courteous and helped us with check in and also showed us on map touristy places as well. What I din't find comfortable in the rooms was that the air... More
