Independent, Pet-friendlys in Amsterdam

A bit out of the centre but not a issue if you can use a tram or walk a bit We had a superior room loads of space. Only criticism , why give 4 coffee daily and tea but only 2 milk portions and then have to request milk from reception , Note to management , most English people do not drink fruit tea , breakfast is what we need ! I think this being my only critic is a good sign and I would not hesitate to stay there again

Helpful staff, good location. Loads of info and tickets available. Lots of good restaurants in walking distance and Dam Square 5 mins walk away.

THIS HOTEL HAS AN EXCELLENT LOCATION FOR ALL THE MUSEUMS AND THE MAIN PARK BUT YOU CAN WALK EASILY FROM THE HOTEL INTO THE CENTRE TO SEE MORE ATTRACTIONS INCLUDING BOOKING A CANAL TRIP.THE STAFF WERE FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL IN EVERY WAY . THE TEA AND COFFEE FACILITIES IN THE ROOM MAKE IT MORE COMFORTABLE . THE SHOWER WAS A DELIGHT AND THE ROOM WAS CLEAN AND WELL MAINTAINED .THE BREAKFAST AT 19.50 EUROS WAS EXPENSIVE

The Avenue Hotel is only a short walk [5 minutes /-] from Amsterdam Central Railway station. What's more it's just off the City Centre Dam Square/Damrak and most convienant for the trams, which can make it a little noisy on ocassion [in the rush hour] and they go everywhere, pretty well all the attractions are a short ride away and equally they convienantly start from outside Central Station. So it would be advisable if your planning a few days in Amsterdam to buy a "tram/bus pass" which range from around 7 euros for a day to 21 for 4 days. There are a couple of signs in the tram station that list the main attractions and the numbers of the trams needed to get there.

Great location, friendly helpful staff. Rooms spotless and couldn't fault, continetal breakfast really good! Would defiantly return and recommend this hotel!

Great roomy apartment. One single master bedroom with a queen sized bed and one sofa couch (sleeps two but will be a tight fit). Towels and sheets (fresh out of the box) were provided. Owner of the apartment met us and was extremely polite and helpful. He was considerate and flexible as to when we arrived and when we planned on leaving. There is no "staff" and therefore no room cleaning since you are renting an apartment. Great location in the enter of town and easily accessible to the train station. Our apartment was above a bar so maybe it is not the best solution for family's with young children. Can hear music from the bar until about 1 am on week days and up to 3:30 am on weekends. Music not terribly loud but audible. Didn't stop us from sleeping and we greatly appreciated the bar being open almost 24/7 because it made us feel more secured and the bartenders were almost like the staff. They were extremely helpful and a couple even ate dinner with us and told us stories about the town. Overall a perfect experience and wonderful place to stay. Did have to pay cash up front but the owner gave a receipt so all went well. Would recommend to anyone who wants a good local place to stay at a good price and who wants their privacy and not bother with hotel cleaning people and other nonsense. Oh and the apartment comes equipped with a kitchen so meals may be prepared there.

Used hotel shuttle to Keukenhof, it was excellent, very personal service

Good food in restaurant. Close to centre of Hoofddorp. Helpful friendly staff. Nice modern rooms in newly built wing of hotel.

The Zwanenburg is about a 15-minute drive from the airport, using the shuttle service provided by the hotel. We needed to stay overnight from one incoming flight with a 13-hour layover for a morning flight back to the States the next day. They were able to provide an early (5:30) shuttle service back to the airport. Both driver and evening and morning staff at the desk were helpful and friendly. Pick up at the airport and return were both on time. The beds were extremely comfortable and shower/bathroom facilities were clean with everything working properly. It was very quiet all night. We felt the hotel was very reasonably priced. One thing to think about: we didn't notice an elevator (there could have been one..we didn't ask) and were on the 2nd floor. If you've got heavy bags, this could be an issue if there's not a lift.

We got the triple room on the top floor of the hotel. Beautiful light, wonderful view of the Rijksmuseum. There is an en suite bathroom. Great location really close to all the museums and the Concertgebouw. I'd stay there again, although if you're looking for something quiet, this isn't the place to go! The stairs are scary steep too, but kind of a bizarre adventure.
