“Nice hotel”

Nice hotel, quiet location, complimentary breakfast . Location around 15 minutes from Amsterdam central station, a short free ferry ride of around 2 minutes then 10/12 minutes walk. Two supermarkets nearby, one has a cafe where you can buy pizza and other simple meals in the market then eat in the cafe. The area is a mix of residential and industrial units, a bit dark on an evening.

“more like a travel lodge than holiday inn.”

had to change rooms, the first room had stains all over the carpet and the view was not good - we were looking at the other side of the building, which is a shame as we paid allot of money for x1 night. No minibar or water in the room. First staff member we were served by (male) was very unhelpful and walked away after spotting us, as soon as we went back down to change rooms. Another staff member (female) had to chase him to swap the rooms, but he still didnt deal with it. The other staff members we encounter were all lovely and helpful, especially the lady that swapped the room for us. Location is great if you want to visit Wondr or Barbie - its a 2min walk and there is also a good supermarket next door, otherwise, a 15/20min trek to either the metro or the ferry to get into town on the other side of the river.

“Wonderful Stay and Very Helpful Staff”

We had a very pleasant stay at Holiday Inn Express Amsterdam - North Riverside with our family. The hotel was comfortable, clean, and a great choice for our trip. The breakfast was very good, with many different choices, so everyone in our family could find something they enjoyed. and in a convenient location, with easy access to Amsterdam Central Station, making it easy for us to get around the city and visit different places. Our room was also cleaned well and kept comfortable throughout our stay. A special thanks to Nodori (if remembered correctly) , who upgraded our room and helped us many times during our stay. He was always kind, welcoming, and very helpful. There was also a lovely girl at the reception who was very friendly and helpful whenever we needed assistance. The service from the reception team really made us feel welcome. The only issue during our stay was that one of the elevators was not working, so we sometimes had to wait quite a long time for the second elevator to arrive, especially when the hotel was busy. Overall, we had a great family stay and really appreciated the hospitality and excellent service. We would be happy to stay here again when visiting Amsterdam.

“Please do better”

I stayed three days and had to request towels and clean room. One of the elevators was broke and stayed that way. Very annoying to with many people. The eggss at breakfast were horrible with not many options. I felt that they could do better for what I paid.

“Love Amsterdam”

Great modern minimalist hotel with excellent breakfast. Near metro and bus. Next door is Amsterdam Food market where you can get lunch and dinner. Excellent pizza and other prepared food. Minor inconvenience-no body lotion provided, went to front desk-None. Buy a day or 2 pass and you’ll enjoy tram, bus and metro. Explore the beautiful city.
