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 location - away from the noise

If you want a quiet stay in a residential location, this is the place to be. Nice little shops, cafes and restaurants within walking distance although they don't stay open late. You need to be in the centre for that. I stayed in a single room which was a bit on the small side but the main things like cleanliness and good bathroom were spot on. Staff could have been more friendly and helpful with the hotel's facilities. The bar never seemed to be open and we forgot to ask about the fitness facilities so are not even sure they existed. The Hotel is within walking distance to Van Gogh and a few other points of interest but the trams were really easy to use to get to Dam Square and other parts. For a quiet stay, I would recommend this hotel.

Money-saving tip: Not Applicable

If you can, purchase the iAmsterdam Card which offers free travel on buses and trams (not trains) and either free entry or discounts on a full range of attractions and restaurants in Amsterdam. It is valid until the end of the year and is well worth the money.

3-Tages Trip

Ich war mit einer Freundin für 3 Tage in Amsterdam. Das Hotel befindet sich im Grunde genommen nicht sehr weit von Stadtzentrum, 5 Min. Gehweg zur Straßenbahn (2, 16) und mit der gelangt man ganz gemütlich ins Stadtinnere. Ebenso sind Supermärke und Bekleidungsgeschäfte 3 Min. vom Hotel entfert. Das Personal war auch ganz lieb. Das einzige was zu bemängeln ware, ist das Frühstück, und zwar nicht weil es schlecht war, sondern weil die Auswahl eher gering war. Für einen extra Aufschlag von 12,50 (pro Tag) erwartet man sich doch ein wenig mehr. Das Hotel und die Stadt haben uns trotzdem sehr gut gefallen und wir würden jederzeit wieder in das selbe Hotel kommen. Bis Flughafen ist es auch nicht so weit, (ca. 15 Autofahrt und ca. 40 Min. Busfahrt)man geht ca. 10 Min. bis zur Station "Museumsplein" und von dort aus mit dem Bus 197 direkt bis zum Flughafen, ist sehr praktisch.
