    The air conditioner was slightly noisy but for me personally that's not really a complaint.

    Staff were very courteous and welcoming. The location is about 5 to 10 minutes away from a huge range of restaurants and the metro station.

    The hotel is noisy. The AC fan in the room needs maintenance, you can hear people walking around, talking, water hammer in the pipes. We didn’t sleep well.

    The property has a good location and clean. The staff and bar tenders were all very welcoming and nice. The street is pretty quiet.

    Breakfast ok, but kitchen/restaurant understaffed so many things needed topping up which took a long time. Some staff very helpful, others seem not to hve a clue what they were supposed to do. Front desk staff parly professional, but one very cheeky with guests.

    Location is great. Some staff very helpful. Rooms comfortable enough.

    Room decoration and furnitures were not the same as the photos. Hotel building is like a labyrinth. You have walk in between different buildings and stair/elevators in order to reach your room. There was a carpet change throughout the hotel. Unlucky that we were there on the same days.

    Very good location. 2min walk to central tram line and airport shuttle line. If you are interested in museums and walkin in parks hotel is located 5-7 min walk to museums quarter and Vondel Park. Comfortable rooms. I would definately recommend this hotel if you love to walk, use trams/buses when you are exploring a new city.

    We had a very enjoyable stay and would certainly choose Catalonia again.

    Breakfast is expensive for people like us who only want cereal or toast and tea: it would be good to have a small breakfast option. However there are good places for breakfast within a few minutes. The shower is modern and in good order but we had great difficulty working out how to use it properly, never quite got the hang of it, some verbal guidance and written instructions would be really useful!

    Location was great, within 12 minutes of the Rijksmuseum and the museum square, and comfortable walking distance (we are seniors) or easy tram ride for all the centre and all the other main sites. It's also within 5-10 minutes walk of good places to eat traditional dutch food and a great Indonesian restaurant. We chose a small room at the top of the house and found it very cosy, bright and convenient, with a kettle and facilities for tea and coffee. The staff were very helpful and friendly and responsive to requests eg for an extra duvet and for larger mugs for tea drinkers!

    Very minor points but the floor is wonky, the shower doesn’t have a handle and the master key doesn’t open rooms when locked from the inside - fire risk?

    Excellent location and very helpful staff - Thomas was particularly friendly and chatty on arrival. Beds were much more comfortable than expected.

    For a 4star hotel I was expecting more from it tbh. The shower wasn’t that good - it wasn’t powerful enough and at first we thought the shower was broken. The mattress felt like it was broken, because on one side you sank into the bed. Besides that, we heard often a noise coming from the AC

    The hotel has a really good location and the staff were very friendly. Also, it was clean.

    The room wasn’t in great shape. The other rooms in the hotel that we saw briefly from the cleaning service having the door open looked much nicer than the loft space room we were in.

    We stayed in the family loft. Lots of room

    Our door didnt lock unless we got a pen and stuck it in the mechanism as it kept getting stuck. We didn't tell the staff though as we were only staying a few nights and I am sure they would've fixed it if we had mentioned it.

    Location is amazing, close to the park and in a really lovely area. The hotel feels authentic, is clean, quiet and the staff are really friendly. I would definitely recommend to friends / stay here again.
