City Partner Aalborg Hotel Amsterdam  

Blatent misrepresentation on the website: there is no parking (although they say they offer a parking service which is expensive and you have to wait 10 minutes). If you want to pay by credit card they charge a massive extra 4%. Room was tiny, dirty and badly maintained. The lift wakes you up every time someone takes it. Worst hotel I have stayed in (out of 4 in Amsterdam this week).

The room was extremelly small we couldn't even move to it, didn't know where to put our things..although looked bigger in fotos. The room was very simple, old and dirty, although looked luxury, modern and romantic in fotos. The price was extremelly high for what they were offering and the staff were very rude!! And boring to give tourist informations. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.. About location they mention center but it is not exactly in the center, you have to take the tram and are many stops far away from the center..Late at night you need to use taxi to get back and they are very expensive in Amsterdam..

Nice friendly staff, small rooms but cosy, preferred only if you spend more time out than in the hotel..

Location: 15 minutes by tram to the center. Has own bikes to rent.

Design is not what expected by photoshoped photos.

Great hotel for a quick stay in Amsterdam, for a reasonable budget. Just far enough from the city center bustle. Close to transportation hubs. Really nice bar and terrasse inside !! Recommended !!

The location is really great. It's close to the park and to the city centre at the same time (about 5mins walk). The neighbourhood is quiet and typical old Amsterdam look. The breakfast does not makes you wow!, but still with the solid quality and standard - cereals,milk, yoghurt, some variety of bread, eggs, ham, cheese, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, honey, several kinds of jam, butter, tea, coffee,water, orange juice.

The standard of the room, especially the quality of furniture and bathroom made me feel to be more in the hostel, not in the hotel, so don't be allured by the pictures - interiors do not look so glamorous. The room was very small - there was just the bed (pretty comfy, though), small desk with chair, very small space imitating wardrobe (it was hidden behind the mirror), few wooden shelfs and a tv (on the desk). The space designed to move from front door to the window was very narrow (standing there you have to sit on the bed to give other person free way) as well as from window to the bathroom (opened small suitcase was just enough to fit). Hairdryer did not work.

Price and location

Bathroom very cold, no heating

Very friendly and helpful staff, good location just outside of city centre, modestly priced.

Things which didn't work (E.G. lights), noisey late at night with banging doors, very small room had no chairs, table or kettle, bathroom was permanetly very damp.

Realatively low price, decent location, open 24 hrs, bar downstairs 24 hrs

Staff was only ok. The room was a little too small. Even though I signed a paper saying I would not smoke, the whole place had a smoke smell to it.

The staff is friendly and helpful

There was a plumbing problem in the room we stayed which couldn't be resolved due to it being Sunday. However we were relocated to another room, which unfortunately faces the main road and was noisy.

Value for money

4% credit card fee that I was not made awarre of in advance; room very small; shower uncomfortable;

Nice outside area and lobby Clean room Friendly staff

Tiny and noisy room Dangerous bathroom

Staff are so rude, they ignore you and leave you alone which I quite liked as I couldn't be bothered to be nice to them after the first day.

Tiny rooms and horribly noisy lift. You can't even take a shower in the minuscule bathroom. Everything in the hotel is such awful quality and falling apart.
