The hotel is average. What really dissapointed me was the fact that they did not even bother replying my emails. I forgot my mobile phone charger in my room and asked if they found it and if they could send it to me. more

The Barbizon Palace is located within a five minute walk of the Amsterdam Central train station, which is, in turn, a 20 minute train ride from the airport. (It is claimed that the trains leave every 10 minutes and that the trip takes 15 minutes, both of which are slight exaggerations.) The hotel aspires to being 5 stars, with fairly... more

The room was very clean but it was a disappointment that the coffee cups and stirring spoon provided in the room were re-used. Upon arrival, there was dried sugar and coffee on the teaspoon from the previous guest. This made me doubt the cleanliness of the cups too. I looked for an identifying mark on one of the cups and... more

The hotel is in a good location for the train station and the red light district if that is what you are interested in. The hotel looks like social housing in the UK from the outside. Inside the lobby area is nice. The lifts look like they have not been touched since the 80s and are very difficult to get... more

Having traveled Europe before, we have discovered that hotels can be a bit sketchy at times, but this was a pleasant surprise. We spent 2 nights, and on Sundays they let you check out as late as 5pm. Getting here from Schipol airport is a breeze. There is a regular train every several minutes and it is 3 stops to... more

Won the room through Priceline for $75, and was happy to see how central the location of the hotel was for downtown sights. We were just in Amsterdam for a one night layover, so its extremely close proximity to the train station was great. It was easy to get to/from the Schiphol Airport - just a quick hop on the... more

The hotel is really central, directley across from Centraal Station which makes it a little noisy but all part of the buzz of a wonderful city centre. The hotel has a nice check in and reception area , close... more

My wife and I stayed there for three nights. Very friendly service, and the hotel was definitely clean. The best part of the hotel was the proximity to Central Station, tram lines, and many of the excursion tour offices and starting points. Additionally some very good restauraunts in the vicinity. The down side was the fact it's called a five... more
