Lovely and relaxing
My teenage daughter and I rounded out a 2 week vacation with a few days in the beautiful city of Amsterdam. We could not have been happier with our stay at the Memphis. It is a beautiful hotel in a charming and safe neighborhood.The staff was always helpful and we felt very relaxed and pampered there. The location is one of the nicest in Amsterdam - a little away from the center but less than a 10 minute walk to the Van Gogh museum and the Riksmuseum and the tram is literally outside the front door.

Really nice spot away from the madness
I couldn't believe what a bargain this place was. It wasn't quite in the heart of Amsterdam, but near the more sedate museum district, near fancier restaurants and the concert hall. It was still only a 10 minute bike-ride from all the crazy action like the red-light district, so you can easily get a full taste of the city. The staff was so helpful, the internet worked well, and it was pleasant at all times. After two nights, I had to leave since they were booked, so I went to another hotel nearer the city center, and it was more money and a total freaking pigsty. I came back to this hotel within 20 minutes and begged them to take me back for the next night, and they did. Everyone remembered my name, even! I will definitely stay here on all other future trips!

Great location, basic accomodation
The Memphis Hotel was in a great location, about 10 mins walk from Museum Square. On the whole the staff were friendly and helpful. The room felt quite basic considering the hotel was rated as a 4*. The bathroom was very simple and had a bit of a nasty smell to it. That said bed linen seems clean, so no complaints there. It would have been nice to have some of the usual bathroom smellies, shower cap etc and maybe tea/coffee making facilities in the room. Overall had a great visit to Amsterdam, it's a wonderful city with friendly people and lovely sights to see and places to visit.

Good and clean, 4 star level
Generally a good stay. Nice and clean hotel. Typical four star quality, clean but not very modern in terms of amenities. New towels but not sheets every day. No toiletries. Friendly staff and no problems during the stay. A/C in the room. Hotel is in a very nice area, lots of nice cafes. Location is 10 minutes from town centre by tram. Recommended, good quality for the price!

Love to travel...
Not for Americans
This hotel is located in a nice area that makes Amsterdam sites accessible by bus or tram. But, the hotel rooms are so small, that if you're not traveling alone, there is not enough space. We booked a double, and we had to rearrange the furniture to accommodate our luggage. One of the beds was not comfortable, the maid service was very poor, and to top it off we were without any water one afternoon without any notice. Also please note: (April 2011) they were doing major construction on the building, less than 100 ft from our window, that started at about 7am on weekdays, so don't plan to sleep in.

Dining tip:
Long walk from hotel
The Museumplein area is great for all types of museums and is a short walk from the hotel. For dining, we took the #2 tram from the hotel (we also walked once, but it is a bit far) to Leidseplein where there are restaurants galore! Any type of food you could possibly want at decent prices. We especially liked the all you can eat ribs, that are found at many locations, and the all you can eat chicken fajitas. A great place for Chinese fast food is called Wok and Walk across from McDonalds. Americans should be aware that you will not be served tap water in restaurants, and tea and coffee refills are also not possible without paying for a second cup. The only way to get water in a restaurant is to pay for mineral water. Since mineral water makes me blow up like a balloon, I smuggled in tap water from the hotel and sipped it when the waitress wasn't looking. • Another warning: Amsterdam has more bicycles than people. Beware of the bicycles. They come from every direction and are very dangerous. Getting off a bus, or out of a taxi is quite a risk. The bicycles are usually on the red brick area of the sidewalk, but it is so subtle that it rook us a day to figure it out. Once you understand where the bicycles are, it is a bit easier, but you must always be prepared for a surprise rider......and they do not slow down for pedestrians. The cars are easy to avoid, the bicycles are a challenge. •• I highly recommend Keukenhof tulip gardens if you are traveling in the Spring. For the best price, with no time restrictions, go to the Keukenhof website and buy a combi ticket that can be used on any day during the season. The combi ticket price is less than 1/3 of the price of packaged deals. It includes entrance admission, lets you have unlimited time in the garden, and includes a Connexxion bus ride (to and from the airport), and drops you off right at the front gate of the garden. Take the 197 bus to Schiphol airport from this hotel (4 euros each way) and then find the Connexxion bus to Keukenhof. The Connexxion bus runs about every 15 minutes till about 7pm. Give yourself several hours to enjoy this "Disneyland" of tulips. Be sure to go inside all the buildings so you don't miss anything. There are lots of restaurants, so no worries about food.
