Blue Tower Hotel

( 3 stars , Amsterdam , Netherlands )

+ Beautiful clean modern hotel - friendly, helpful staff - Bar and restaurant not available at tome of our stay - sorly missed as not much else in the area

+ We found the hotel to be excellent... the staff was very friendly and helpful... the room was great, clean, nice view and comfortable! as well the location was great! not far from the airport and only 10min and 1 tram from the dam! there was also a nice market set up in the square right behind the hotel selling fruits veggies meat snacks and cheap clothing. we will stay here again on our next visit to amsterdam!

+ The room is clean and confortable. i enjoyed all the facilities provided: internet, shower, tv..... - The location of this hotel wasn't what i thought after visting the website. i was a bit disappointed!! this blue bulding is quite ugly. as soon as you get into your room is getting better though.....

+ Good place to stay, slightly further out of town, but we took the 21 bus right to bos en lommerplein and it was right there. if you don't mind staying outside the city it was a nice place to stay. nice clean room though, with private bathroom, and enough room for 3 people. - Nothing super fancy about it. it is a hike from the city though. ask the tourist desk how exactly to get there. no breakfast, and it was expensive at the hotel.

+ Very good value for money, in my opinion. my room was roomy enough and very quiet, on the ninth floor. desk staff helpful and friendly. i walked in around 13:00, and they let me check into my room. that was appreciated, after a long travel day. great shower fixture in my room also. wireless internet worked well for me in my room. - Nothin important.

+ We had no problems during our stay in the hotel

+ Nice hotel, good design. - A bit far from the city center. pity the windows of the rooms point out to the noisy freeway.

+ I went with two other females & we found the room a good size, the deco was fab especially the shower & bath that was a bonus. the staff were very welcoming, friendly & helpful. - For me it was the beds, it was too soft thou very nice to sit but i needed a firm mattress because of my back-have a bit of a back promblem.

+ It's easy to get into amsterdam city by tram (7, 14 or 21)but be careful to get the right 'travelcard' or you could be paying alot more than you need to. if you want to be in the middle of the action 24/7 this is not the best location. it's nice to see another side of amsterdam but next time i will book a hotel in the centre of amterdam even if it costs a little extra. - Rooms a bit of a let down. not as nice as they look in the pictures, windows also do not open which is a real let down. also, there is an office directly opposite so if you have a room on that side (which i did) you have to keep your curtains closed.

One negative point Room at the 11th floor and the lift stop at the 10th (difficult stairs from 10th to 11th)
