It is a great themed hotel. The staff was very helpful and the room was nice. Convenient to the Railkaart lines. Lots of restaurants and things to see all around.

Julio

United States of America

The location is very good if you want to stay away from the crowded central but still reach it in minutes. You just walk 5 minutes out the Hotel, reach the metro station, take the Noord metro line, 5 minutes after and you in Amsterdam Central Station where all the attractions are walking distance away.

Easy and pleasant check in. Clean. Happy with the ceiling fan. Cool lighting in bathroom.

The location was great. Not too touristy but also had a lot of cute restaurants and cafes. I upgraded my room because I initially booked a smaller one for my boyfriend and I and worried we wouldn’t have space to open our bags. The room I got was a decent size. Very clean and modern. No frills.

Hotel was indeed great! Especially if you are prevented to move around town because of the weather or some other reason - you have all the gaming equipment one can ask for. Staff was more than pleasant, to communicate and help us with anything we needed.

If you like video games, this is the place for you. Also across the park and restaurants on the block

The gaming concept of the hotel was very cool. The location is perfect and very close to public transportation.

Romi

It’s a small but very well designed room with a comfortable bed, and enough space for one person to move around

If you and/or your children are geeks/gamers, this is the perfect hotel for you; decent location for King's Day festivities; short easy walk to the Metro

we had the suite which was advertised as sound proof, people next door were heard clear as day as they packed up to leave at 7:15am The selector on the bath was broken so had to fill up the bath with the shower head which took a literal age. we booked the hotel room with the bath because my wife suffers from gastrointestinal-paresis, one of the only things to help her cope with her symptoms is a bath. Having to wait almost an hour to fill the bath was not good and had a knock on effect into making her stay in Amsterdam unenjoyable. Usually when we stay at the arcade hotel, we’re offered a welcome drink, not this time, we were not offered a welcome drink. I always though the arcade hotel was a decent place, I’m not 100% I’ll be staying again as it was very expensive for what we received. I’m gutted to have a bad experience at the arcade hotel, because every other stay Iv had has been very good
I like the position of the hotel and it’s features

Disappointing

First night we got woken up at 1.30am by a group that was playing music, waited for 30 min to see if somebody stop them, nothing happend. Second night finally slept. Last night people talking loud in the hallway, slamming doors and talking loud and yelling outside of our window when smoking. The hotel staff should have told the people to be quiet out of respect to other but clearly they didn't care. This was the second time in this hotel and the first time is was nice and quiet, that's why we returned but now we will not return anymore to this room.

“Too noisy ”
- • Leisure trip
- • Travelers with friends
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Too expensive for an hotel where you can’t sleep because it is too noisy. Actually we could hear every move and single word of our « neighbours ». We stayed there 3 nights, the first 2 nights we could not sleep and we spent the 3rd one outside to avoid hearing people talking and entering their room. There is a huge problem of insulation. Moreover, when we checked-in the heater was turned off in the bedroom and in the bathroom (in december) !! Always have to ask additional towel (the one for the floor).
The 2 only good points were the location and the staff.

“Money stolen from my luggage”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 4 nights
I left the room at 11am for breakfast and when I came back at 1pm, we found the room was cleaned but the money I had in my luggage was gone ! The receptionist was really rude and said that I was lying or I simply lost the money claiming that he trusted the cleaning ladies blindly. I filed a police report at the closest police station and I could finally talk to the manager the next working day. After a long talk, he checked the accesses to the room that day and saw that the cleaning ladies indeed went inside. Long story short, he didn't want the hotel to take any blame but still reimbursed me 100€ out of the stolen 150€ which I appreciated (but just to know I payed 320€ for my whole stay). Moral of the story: DO NOT LEAVE ANY VALUABLES IN THE ROOM Also: The room was really tiny and the beds uncomfortable.

We stayed on the ground floor just next to the street. People from hotel or maybe some other people just in front of the hotel all night stay and talk, laugh, smoke and instead of sleeping you do the same things with them. Hotel should warn at least such people that there is some silent hours.
First of all, although booking tricked us on this reservation, hotel offered us a one day free of charge breakfast which was amazing with all details. It is very kind of them because it was not their fault. Hotel is about 30 min away from Dam Square by walking and it is not bad at all. There is also a metro which is only 3 minuted by walking from hotel. Neighbourhoud was quite cool, De Pijp area is also very nice to see many nice coffee shops, restaurants, a bazaar close by. The design of the hotel is also very unique. The lights in the bathroom is very nice. Bed was over comfortable.
