The location of Ciao Papa Hotel Amsterdam Central Station is good, but the stairs inside the hotel are very narrow and the rooms are extremely small without a private bathroom. If you have luggage or mobility issues, it will be very hard to stay here.

This is the worst hotel I have stayed my whole life. I booked it because of their ideal location but its a tourist trap. No elevators and you have to climb (my case) 4 stories in a narrow and steep stairs with luggage. Room is so small that there is only space for your bed with the worst: bedbugs (check other reviews). Price is too high for such a bad experience. Please do your self a favor don’t book this
The first two stories climbing from the street.

OMG ! one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in. Place was dirty and unkempt everywhere the rooms are tiny beyond belief, light fittings were hanging off the wall !,the laminate coating was peeling off the floor,moths had been eating holes in the curtains! And last but no means least was the shower only got lukewarm and was also ready at any time to come off the wall ,bloody disgrace.

The location was great, short walk from train station, close to sightseeing attractions and red light district. Lots of stairs to get to lobby and rooms but staff was helpful with luggage. Small clean rooms. Staff insisted on daily room cleaning all spare towels and sheets were clogging up halls during cleaning time. It made it difficult to get in and out of our room. We enjoyed having a room Juliet balcony looking over the street although it appears Amsterdam is a city that never sleeps.

We stayed for 2 nights whilst in Amsterdam. Less than a 10 minute walk from central station, and 5 minutes to damrak square. Lovely places to eat, drink and shop nearby. Even though a busy street outside, you could hardly hear a thing. We have were lucky to have one of the larger double rooms (304) so had plenty of space, great size en-suite (would say the shower screen needs to just be a little bit bigger so the whole floor doesn’t get wet), but clean and comfy bed. Reception staff were always friendly. When coming back to Amsterdam, I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.

Really pleased with the conditions of the hotel, would put it on par with a Premier Inn in the UK. Small rooms but only used to sleep in so no problem at all. Very convenient location, close to central station and walkable to most of the center. Staff also let us drop off bags before check in. Just one thing to be aware of is the door to the toilet in the room is just a glass divider not a full door that can be closed.

Loved the location of this hotel, a few minutes walk from central station. There are lots of restaurants on the same street. Major lamdmarks and sights are within walking distance. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. They helped us out and offered accommodation for our requests. We got the room with the attached bahroom, and it was well worth it. The A/C was excellent, and the room was clean, I'll be back here if we're in Amsterdam again!
