My husband and I stayed here for three nights. The location is perfect and is right around the corner from museums, a short walk from the market, and very close to a tram stop. Our room and bed were large for European standards. We had problems with the Internet because we were using one code for two devices-- the front... More

Staying only for 1 night but I found this hotel was almost perfect in terms of rate, location (near museums complex, i amsterdam letter, souvenir shops, canals and last but not least to my favorite: Indonesian Restaurant) and public facilities (airport shuttle, tram, bus). The receptions were warm, nice and helpful, with good english, really appreciate it. Next trip to... More

My husband and I spent about a week in this hotel in mid-April and found this hotel barely adequate for our needs. The room decor was modern-cheap and the shower was such that the shower door could not be closed while showering -- a design error, I would say -- yet it looked very nice with fancy plumbing and marble....

We stayed here for 3 nights having booked a few weeks ago on a hotel discount website and got a bargain. Taxi from the airport was 36 euros for an approx 6 mile trip.

This hotel was poorly staffed and cleaned. There is a hotel bar which very rarely actually has anyone tending it, therefore it is difficult to find someone to take a drink order. I waited for 15 minutes one night when there were about 20 others in the bar as well before I was able to find a staff member to... More

When a cruise ended unexpectedly early, we had to book a hotel in Amsterdam with only four days' notice. Our travel agent found us a room at the Apollo Museum Hotel, which has a great location next to the Rijksmuseum on one of the main canals. The hotel was jammed with tourists, and the reception staff seemed a bit harried.... More

To be next door literally to all the major museums, convenient and pleasant walking distance to the Jordaan and Rembrandtplein areas was great. Avoid the 5th floor if you can as the rooms are smaller but the hotel is good value and we would stay their again.
