UNIQUE STAY ON THE WATER - CLOSE TO AMSTERDAM!

Hotel Casa Amsterdam
I highly recommend this hotel. The staff is friendly and helpful, while the hotel is clean, well kept, and modern. The location is also really convenient, as the city center was only 3-5 stops away, yet you’re able to breathe a little without being a super crowded space. I’d definitely stay here ...

Hotel Fogo Amsterdam
It was great and clean but there are not much to do in that area and it’s a bit far from Amsterdam

Amsterdam Marriott Hotel
Housekeeping could have been better. Water glasses were not properly cleaned, a bath towel put in our room after cleaning was dirty, wash clothes were forgotten one day. Also, a problem with HVAC, was turned off inexplicably and had to call down to rectify.
