Amstelveen Hotels with Bars

I really enjoyed my stay here, the staff were friendly and very helpful. Since we arrived early, we left our luggage safely at the hotel and set out to explore the surrounding area, doing the same after checking out. It's very practical and efficient. The only thing I would recommend is that the restaurant menu be visible to guests when checking in as it is located next to the reception. Most guests feel more comfortable knowing what's available and the prices before making a reservation.

Io e la mia ragazza abbiamo soggiornato in quest’aparthotel per il nostro soggiorno ad Amsterdam. Sebbene situato nella località di Amstelveen, questo hotel è in posizione strategica: è infatti ad una mezz’ora di mezzi sia dall’aeroporto sia dal centro di Amsterdam, trovandosi a 5 minuti a piedi dalla linea 5 e 25 dei tram ed a sole 4 fermate dall’interscambio di Amsterdam Zuid. I monolocali sono puliti e dotati di tutti i comfort. Unica pecca la mancanza di ciabattine monouso e forse di accappatoi (sono comunque presenti asciugamani). Il letto è comodo, ma i cuscini un po’ piccoli. In quanto aparthotel, le pulizie sono settimanali. Non abbiamo provato la colazione in struttura, ma il personale è sembrato molto disponibile. Lo consiglierei per un soggiorno ad Amsterdam.

I couldn't rate this hotel any higher. It's on the outskirts of town so lovely and quiet, the rooms are a good size and we didn't hear a peep from anybody else while we were in our room. We were allowed to drop off luggage early which was handy and then we came back about an hour early but were told our room was available so we could check in slightly earlier than the 3pm advised time. Check in was easy, and our room was on the 5th floor with the lifts just near reception. The room had a small kitchen which included a dishwasher, fridge, coffee maker, hob. Bathroom was a decent size and a nice walk in shower. We didn't eat here but we did come back for drinks before calling it a night on the Saturday and the bar was reasonably priced (it was cheaper compared to the city centre) and the staff on shift were extremely friendly. The hotel were happy to call us a taxi when we first arrived as we didn't know how far things would be, but we then stuck to Uber after that as it was a lot cheaper than the local taxi companies (same as the UK then!). Check out was equally as easy and again staff were pleasant and friendly. We will visit Amsterdam again next year, and we'll be more than happy to stay here again.

We chose to stay at this hotel because it was walking distance to the family that we were visiting. That’s the last good thing I can say about the Amsterdam Forest Hotel. I booked a deluxe twin room. The room that we were given was nothing like the room shown in photos of the hotel’s website. It was tiny, hardly big enough for 2 people. The bathroom was the smallest I have ever seen in a hotel. No mirror in the room. One very small window overlooking the parking lot. No TV remote in the room. The phone in the room that you would use to contact reception wasn’t working. They charge for parking. They charge for breakfast. The halls are dark, almost scary. The halls are so narrow that if you encounter the housekeeping cart, you’ll have to scoot sidewise to get past it. The mattresses were about 2 inches thick, on top of a bigger mattress. On the plus side, they did 2 loads of laundry for us for a bargain price of 7.50 euros.

The hotel is close to public transport (10 minute walk) and the staff are quite friendly. They had a nice little store so you could buy a beer or bag of chips late at night. The only thing that stops me from putting 5 stars…no usb outlets. I totally get that the outlets for power are not universal, but everybody has a phone, and a USB port by the bed is needed for people that don’t have a wall adapter. Add that and this place would get 5 stars.

Hotel location is good, the room is large, there is a balcony, standing on the balcony, you can see the beautiful scenery across the road. The picture of the Dutch tulips placed on the bedside is very beautiful, the breakfast is good, the restaurant is beautiful, the hotel is moderately priced, and the price is high. . The service staff was warm and thoughtful. When I asked about the Ajax home route, I was very enthusiastic to give us directions. I didn’t travel far to the stadium by taxi. I took a two-hour trip when I was on a business trip. The long-awaited stadium is really worth it!

I have slept in this lovely boutique hotel for one night . The room was really spacious and very clean, the same for the bathroom. We had a very good breakfast and che check in and checkout were super easy. Staff was very friendly and the location was perfect for us. In the relaxing outskirts of Amsterdam , by bike it’s only 15 minutes to the center. Very close to the bus which will take you everywhere. Nearby there are supermarkets and restaurant, a nice lake where you can enjoy a good walk. I will surely come back and recommend it.

Would rate it lower if I could. The room was terrible. It was small and there was next to one space to store clothes, and while this didn't bother me for my 2 night stay, it would be really inappropriate for any longer stay. Toilet and shower are shared with many other rooms and are poorly kept. Cracked tiles, random empty bottles of shampoo and condition etc just left in a pile on the floor. There is a sink in the room, but our tap was cracked and sprayed water out the side when you turned it on. There is also a lot of noise outside, as late as even 11pm and with our window broken, we couldn't close it properly to help shut out some of the noise. Food in the bar below is good but VERY expensive for what you get. We also paid for breakfast included and it was nice to help yourself to bread, a toaster, some crackers, deli meat and cheese but... it was just stuff that they bought from the Lidl literally right across the road, about 20 metres away. Not worth how much they were charging for it. They also double charged us and are refusing to give a refund. We spoke to staff at the time and they all seemed friendly and happy to help but couldn't do anything. It was all ”Oh, I'll text the person who is doing the breakfast tomorrow”. She didn't. And when we explained it to the person on breakfast her only suggestion was also to text a co-worker. They took our details and said they'd email us about it. They didn't. We had to chase them up with multiple emails which they all ignored, so we emailed the company through whom we booked the stay. They contacted Abina who claimed that they'd already sent the refund through. They hadn't, which we have proven with bank statements. They still haven't. As of writing this it's been 6 weeks since our stay. No refund and extremely poor communication from Abina through and through. Absolute worst hotel experience to date. Don't stay here.
