Amsterdam American Hotel - Hampshire Eden^{(4 stars)}

We had a double room with two separate beds - each of us had a large queen-size bed, and I really haven't lain in a Hotel Bettoli as comfortable before... Super comfortable mattresses, really great! Mini bar is well stocked with drinks to chocolate snacks (caution- removing counts already even if you only want to 'look' ...) Kettle. Hair dryer. Safe. Telephone. TV. Air conditioning, heating. Bathrobe, slippers. The room is really big, however the bathroom is small. Carpet in the room. For those who mind. The windows are quite large and can be opened completely - beware if you have children with you!

A very comfortable large dining room, beautiful atmosphere because of the decoration and the dimmed light, the furnishing is dark wood, comfortable chairs and armchairs. The choice at the breakfast buffet was perfect - from 'classic' German, English, French to fresh fruit, yoghurt, even sparkling wine and so on Tea or coffee is brought to the table. By the way, with advance reservation you can order breakfast to your room. We didn't go to the bar, got a glimpse though, also very attractive.

Entire hotel staff very friendly and discrete.

In the basement there is a sauna and various fitness equipment for strength and endurance training. Nearby the hotel, there are numerous possibilities for massages or for wellness/spa in general.

The 4-star hotel was built in 1902 in art-deco style and therefore looks nice from the outside. It has 5 or 6 (?) Floors. From the fairly narrow entrance area it leads directly to the elevators, to the stairs, the breakfast room and the American bar. The stairs/ staircase we found a little confusing, therefore perhaps better take the elevator... The staff at the reception was businesslike friendly, and you got along with English (generally) easy. The nights can be booked with breakfast included. Cleanliness - 6 points, nothing to complain about. For smokers : the entire hotel is completely smoke-free, there is no smoking-room either, so you need to go outside the hotel or book a room with balcony.

The hotel is directly located next to the Leidseplein, and as we have spent New Year's eve there it was of course awesome, as we were almost in the middle of everything and didn't have to go somewhere else. The shopping street Leidsestraat starts at the Leidseplein - there is everything that your heart could desire, from clothing and shoe-brand shops to gift shops or bars/ restaurants. Tram stops are everywhere around. Typically for Amsterdam are of course the canals, opposite the hotel there is one and you can buy tickets for a ride (about 9,50 Euro) right there at the booth - it's worth it in any case. There are a lot of cultural offers, too.

Rather small room, with economical amenities, small bathroom/toilet, had a room without a view to the opposite wall about 3meter. It was thus but the room absolutely quiet as no traffic noise. The beds were a bit soft.

Rooms with breakfast, the breakfast buffet was very good, a large selection of breads, fresh squeezed orange juice, fresh fruit salad.

Staff was friendly, unfortunately no German. Rooms were cleaned daily, towels changed daily. On the day of departure was despite rush abreisender guests both inbound and only one of 2 receptions open and thus very long wait to check-out.

Medium-sized city hotel in the tourist area. Guests from all over Europe.

Close to the city center. The other side and already when we first mixer, great.

The rooms are in terms of location and amenities very different !!! (View of the courtyard, to the canal, street, large and small room - best viewed before some of our group is a simple equipped room assigned, broken lamps, etc. ). Some rooms have a balcony. No plug in the bathroom, only for a razor. Our room (414 ) was a good size, the canal, a very wide, comfortable bed, coffee/tea maker, ironing board with iron, bathtub, hair dryer, shower gel, shampoo, body lotion, plenty of towels, washcloths, seating area, flat screen tv, etc. Some rooms have even bathrobes - we didn't use it.

was absolutely friendly staff! Breakfast buffet: The cheese and meat were fresh and quite tasty, tomatoes topped and browned with cheese, fried mushrooms, salmon, omelets and fried eggs on request, boiled eggs, cereals, sparkling wine, small delicious pastries, rolls, fresh bread ... But the scrambled eggs we found inedible (probably Tetra Pak-scrambled eggs) and the sausages were hardly) were roasted, limp and without taste. The coffee is served. Breakfast buffet weekdays until 10.30 AM, during the weekend until 11 hours. The breakfast room is very nice and comfortably furnished, partly cozy wingback chairs. The breakfast costs per person 17.50 Euro. There is a bar and an outdoor terrace, transit. Dishes, Oysters, finger food etc.

Exceptionally friendly! Small German, of course perfect English. Room cleaning okay. , check-in very friendly! We asked for a quiet room (right there were a lot of room for our pre-ordered quite large group, we were a day earlier so we had good opportunities ... ), worked fine!

Gym, sauna, various. Conference rooms were available.

The kept buildings dating from 1900, since 1972 an Art Deco Monument (Art Nouveau). 175 Modern rooms and suites, about 5 floors. Absolutely clean, it could be booked with breakfast. I would, as far as I could judge. rate, not handicapped accessible (from the elevator is partly about "typical Dutch" steps everywhere, even in, we saw restaurants to the room). Mixed guest structure. All public and private institutions non-smoking).

The location is ideal for a city break. The central city location brings it but in some of the rooms rather strong noise (street, tram etc. ). Excursion possibilities: You could probably weeks in this wonderful city and you can get long never saw it all! It is definitely worth it a visit by boat to Volendam and on the peninsula brands (very nice fishing villages, picturesque wooden cabins, picturesque ports ). By taxi about 25 minutes from the airport to the city, cost about 35-40 euros.

The room itself and the bathroom were very clean and very well appointed (flat screen, kettle, air conditioning, mini-bar, hair dryer). The beds were super-soft and therefore not to our taste. But the view was of the inner courtyard with various Abzugsanlagen is terrible.

There is a breakfast for 20 € p.. P. !!

The staff was friendly and supreme, the room was very clean, but the room cleaning extremely annoying. Despite "Do not disturb" sign found this it is required on the door at 8 .00am to hammering and "room service" hollering and other INCOMPREHENSIBLE things.

Internet connections are transferred for available.

The hotel is one of the most impressive building in Amsterdam and looks especially at dusk very impressive. The hotel lobby seems rather small, but friendly, bright and very clean. Next to the hotel but are currently under construction, so you could have construction noise in the morning.

After a short tram ride (1.60 € p.. P) from the main train station of getting to the Leidse Square, hotel. You can also directly with the boat (e.g. B. Canal bus) on the seashore and Leidseplein arrive before a picture of the beautiful canals. The Leidseplein and the surroundings are flooded with bars and restaurants and supermarkets, so a (very expensive) food in the hotel is not necessary. If you love shopping, celebrates or want to be quickly in the museum district (approx. 10 minutes. Walk) was exactly right here.

The hotel rooms are in the Art Deco-style decor and furnishings; all include u. A.. With a TV (widescreen plasma tv, satellite channels and pay TV), minibar, coffee and tea makers, hair dryers, iron and ironing board, desk, direct-dial phone. Wireless and dial-up Internet access is available in all rooms at a surcharge. Art Deco-styled bathrooms include shower/showers, bathrobes, hair dryers, makeup mirrors and complimentary toiletries. The hotel was equipped with an air conditioning. We had a double room, in general very clean, but at the second glance made a a bit tired. The bed was extremely soft!!!!

The hotel's centerpiece is the beautifully renovated café and restaurant "Café Americain" with its refined and dramatic setting. Coffee and cakes were very tasty, but not cheap. In warm weather, guests can also be drinks and snacks on the summer terrace. The "Café Americain" is Monday to Friday between 06:30 and 11:30 PM on Saturdays and Sundays, open from 07:00 until 11:30 pm. In the restaurant there's an American buffet breakfast (Monday through Friday from 6:30 until 10:30 and during the weekend from 07:00 until 11:30). Breakfast not booked in the surrounding area, as it enough choice of cafes and restaurants. Cocktails and Co. It is in the "bar Americain". To this bar also has a veranda, which is adjacent to the Leidseplein. The bar is open from 5:00 PM until 01:00 open.

On the check-in we unfortunately had to wait a bit because a larger number of young people who checked us in and the entire staff at the front desk to this group took care of us well what I somehow found strange. But the staff were all very friendly and helpful.

The lower level of the hotel houses a fitness room with exercise equipment and sauna, which we didn't use however due to time constraints.

The Eden Amsterdam American Hotel is a grand, historic monument in the Art Deco style. It is a legendary hotel that since 1900. The 175 air-conditioned (non-smoking) rooms are on 6 floors. Lots of business travelers stay here, but also international guests.

Right on the lively Leidseplein, with its many bars, cafes and restaurants. Near the hotel there is the Vondelpark, museums and the many shops the Leidsestraat. From the train station is within easy access with several trams here, Schiphol Airport and the RAI Congress Center are also well connected.
