We stayed in the Movenpick the night before our bike and barge. We arrived at the AMS Centraal Station from Paris and headed to the Movenpick - it's about a 1.4 km walk (away from the center)! Hint - take a bus, tram, cab or the hotel van if you don't like to walk. The hotel van runs hourly I... More

The hotel is located on the waterfront at the cruise ship centre. It is quite new and unblemished so to speak. The rooms are a decent size which is not usual in the centre of many European cities. The Europeans have a different attitude about privacy so you will find that the ensuite bathrooms are glassed in with a frosted... More

While the hotel staff was superb overall, we had an issue with missing cash from the lock up for our luggage. We notified the hotel security after we discovered it was missing. If you use the lock up don't leave any cash or anything of value. Room was nice and clean, small tub/shower that needed either an anti slip mat... More

Stayed there for two nights, while watching the Europa Cup final. The hotel has excellent views and is located very close to the central station in Amsterdam. I was lucky to be updated to a suit. The suit was well furnished, very modern and a good size. I liked the modern look of the hotel, as it makes a difference... More

Superb stay at Movenpick, only downside was the walk to the centre, about 20 mins, but not the hotels fault. They do offer a free shuttle service to Central Station, then it's only 5 mins to the centre. Taxi's are expensive, they are on the meter but make sure you are on Tariff 1 before you get it. We were... More

The Moevenpick is just outside the city centre but ideal for trams, main-line stations and, most importantly, the hop-on hop-off canal "buses." From the Moevenpick you can travel all over Amsterdam or other top spots in Holland with the greatest of ease. My wife and I chose the canal buses for our four-night midweek break. A cursory glance at the... More

We booked this hotel for a great rate on Hotwire, and were very happy with the accommodation. The room was large and vey clean. We had a view from the couch over the river. The room service was tasty and arrived quickly. While I think the 'City Center' is a little misleading, they do provide a free shuttle every half... More
