citizenM Schiphol Airport
Great breakfast selection and barista coffee service. Supper service a bit limited but OK. ... Tapas style small plates end up costing more than you might initially assume.

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport
My stay at Ibis Amsterdam Airport was extremely disappointing. This was easily one of the worst hotels I’ve stayed at anywhere.

Hotel Casa Amsterdam
Proximity to the centre was ok, but there was a lot of walking to do from the hotel. If we had known we must likely would have stayed closer to the centre.

Rho Hotel
I enjoyed my stay very much. The hotel is centrally situated, near a metro stop and the train station. The staff was very helpful; the breakfast was good, the air conditioning worked well, and the room was clean.
