...The Bastion Amstel DeluxeHotel was the final leg of an exhausting journey around the Netherlands visiting a range of Universities, and was to be our final stop for two nights before the onward journey with the KLM “I believe I am a racing driver” Pilots.
Bastion is a Dutch chain which currently has 28 hotels across the Netherlands and one in Germany.
Arrival at the hotel quickly established that we were in the middle of nowhere, save for a petrol station next door, situated on a business site with an apparent direct metro connection to Centraal Station close by (actually about 15 minutes walk).
CHECK-IN
Nightmare – 16 people all arriving in one go – reception refused to check for individual names but insisted that we would all crowd around and wait for our names to be called out – not a service you would expect from a 4* deluxehotel...

...Amsterdam is an absolutely unique city. It is vibrant, a treasure trove of extraordinary artistic riches and a living history ov the last 900 years!
As a quick break to celebrate our anniversary, my husband and I decided to head to Amsterdam. Neither of us had been before to tour and we were looking forward to a relaxing break from our busy lives.
We took an early Monday morning flight with KLM. The flight was on time, smooth and quick.
From the Schiphol airport you can either take a taxi into Amsterdam (appox. 25-30 Euros) or take the train to Central Station (3.30 Euros one way). We decided on the later as we had time to spare before we could check into the hotel. We got our tickets quickly (Two ways- 1- If you have Euro change you can buy them for the vending machine or 2- Stand in line to buy your tickets- This is the way...

Advantages: wheelchair friendly, very fun, friendly Disadvantages: none
...Recently my husband and I visited Amsterdam. We were a bit worried about wheelchair accessibility as we couldn't find much online about it. However we were very happily surprised at what we found. Our first worry was about the trains from the airport to town. They were very friendly and also very accessible. Once we got to Amsterdam it was easy to get around. Even the trams are accessible. The hotel we stayed in (Hotel Rho right in Dam Square) was very good too. We had a wonderful time for the five days that we were there. I would highly recommend Amsterdam as a destination for both abled and disabled travellers. Bon Voyage!...
