Stayed at Hotel France for 4 nights. Location is excellent, 5 minute walk from Central Station. Room was pretty basic and not the cleanest I have stayed in with several "splashes" on wallpaper which looked very dodgy! Bathroom was much the same but have to say shower was excellent, very powerful. View from window was non existent as we were... more

Woke up to find a biting insect in my bed. Moved room. Took said insect to the tourist office who advised me to go to the public health department. Practically suffocated by marijuana fumes. typical Amsterdam sleaze more

Very close to the Central Station, yet so are most all the hotels..save for an extra five to ten minute walk (which could well be worth it). It seems to be a bit of a gamble with this one and you can take your chances. Initially the staff were average. The second day of our stay the room price went... more

We were told we would be able to change rooms the next morning, but when we enquired again were told there was no free rooms. Breakfast served in... more

The hotel is on a v quiet side street, just outside the red light district so near to all the bars etc. Its only a few minutes from the main train station, and there are a few chinese buffet restaurants on the same street which are good value. We booked a basement room, there are no windows but aircon, the... more

Finding the Hotel was not that easy and took a while, even though we have been to amsterdam several times. The hotel foyer is a little dated, although the Staff are friendly and welcoming. The rooms are heated by old cast iron style radiators which are not exactly adequate for the room size. Rooms are very basic and in all... more

We booked our stay in the France Hotel as it appeared to offer everything that we needed for a short stay of 4 nights and within our budget. So we booked online before reading any reviews & had to give credit card details to secure the room as a deposit. It was shortly after this that we found this website,... more
