A little gem too good to be true! book NOW!

Advantages: peaceful and relaxing, luxurious and so good value for money
Disadvantages: none!! I mean it!

...the old town centre, the Banks Mansion is a four star deluxe hotel with 51 rooms and suite. Most of them are overlooking the canal but I wasn't so lucky! I booked this hotel last year via lastminute.com for a real bargain at 250£ for 2 nights with a delicious breakfast!!! So, ok, I didn't have a view on the canal, but it quickly became my favourite hotel in Amsterdam ever since. It is not hard to find a real gem in Amsterdam; it is after all the ...
...Well not here, not at Banks Mansion. For everything in the mini bar is ABSOLUTELY FREE. Yes!!! FREE!!! We didn't dare to touch anything at first, but we noticed a nice note saying everything was complimentary. I rung reception and they confirmed that it was indeed complimentary, and that if I wished to have a drink in the main foyer by the fireplace it was also complimentary!! Everything from little snacks to gin and Coca-Cola!!! Now that is a bargain!!!! ...

the finest hotel in amsterdam

Advantages: beutifull water front setting, central location, quallity service
Disadvantages: expencive, a bit of a trek from centraal station if your on foot

...guide pointed out the pulitzer hotel as "the finest hotel in amsterdam" and I would have to agree with him. It's central enough that anything in the city centre is within walking distance, yet far enough away that the endless bragades of drunken idiots on hen and stag do's are not on your doorstep. so in short, if your going to amsterdam to experence the local culture and or the local coffie shop produce then the pulitzer is the place to stay, a ...
...than you had expected, the hotel terminus is exelent aswell, but much cheaper, it has a more central location, but this brings with it the problems of stag do's / hen nights, but if you like to be right in the thick of it so to speak, this is an exelent choice. also, it would be a crime to go to the dam without visiting the wrld renownd abraxis coffie shop, which is just behind dam square down a little back ally ...

Studio 14 B&B is the friendliest experience ever.

Advantages: Close to attractions and night life
Disadvantages: didn't have a kettle in room

This is the best place to stay, especially if you are going on a hen or stag weekend like my girls did. We had a laugh from the beginning of our stay and didn't want to leave. The staff are very friendly and up for a laugh too. The staff were willing to help with anything we asked for especially with the heavy bags. The hotel is very close to the main attractions and all transport. Al tho close to the attractions i was very surprised at how quiet ...

AWFUL PLACE. Terribly rude staff. Stay away.

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Unclean apartments. Disrespectful and rude staff. Overpriced.

The service at this place was some of the worst i've ever seen. The staff neglected to mention that the hallway doors lock from the inside, so when i left without a key I was trapped in the hallway for half an hour. After waiting for some time in a hot and poorly ventilated stairwell (as well as knocking on the only two doors available) I began banging on the walls to try to get someone's attention in the office next door. When the manager finally ...
...to get mad at me for making noise! He was exceedingly rude and pompous, saying that I should have waited even longer for the next person to come by, as if I didn't have anything better to do than sit in a stairwell on my vacation. I had no phone service(American phone), and no one coming back any time soon, so I had absolutely no other recourse in the situation than to call for help. The staff should have been apologetic since this was THEIR fault ...

Stunning Hotel

Advantages: Modern room features. Excellent food and drink. Fantastic Service
Disadvantages: Can't think of any!

...lot better standard than other renaissance hotels. It was modern and spacious with large lcd television, desk area and table with two comfy chairs. THe bathroom was also modern and well done out with an excellent range of complimentry toiletries. As part of the package we booked under we had access to the club lounge. I would recommend anybody to do this as it is fantastic. The club lounge is a room only open to those with a club lounge keycard and ...
...of the other guests. Not many guests come here mostly business men so is quiet and extremely quiet in the day. Club lounge benefits offers free soft drinks and coffee all day with continental breakfast and snacks through the day. Between 5.30pm and 9.30pm alcoholic drinks are also free which includes wine beer spirits anything you want and they also bring out more hot snacks. Free internet is provided and staff working in there are so friendly and ...
