Hotels near Vondelchurch, Amsterdam

Hotel Abba is a budget hotel in an excellent location in a wonderful Amsterdam area close to Rijksmuseum and Vondelpark. In this area you'll find cafés, restaurants and get a city vibe without being overrun by other tourists. There are trams stopping right outside but I typically walked to Leidseplein to take the tram to Asterdam Centraal as starting point. This is a one star hotel so expectations should be managed. I booked a single room with shared bathroom for several nights. When booking, I did not want a party-hotel in the Red Light district where I had to smell smoke non-stop and I did not want to sleep in a shared dorm. For most other hotels that would have landed me with a hotel cost significantly higher than what I paid, so I was happy to find this option. The room itself was functional. The bed was narrow but not uncomfortable. The room was worn but clean. I did hear the neighboring rooms quite a lot, but the hotel has signs in the room that things should be quiet after 22. The room was non-smoking, which was good. The room had an outdoor section which I believe was NOT non-smoking as I could smell the neighbors there. The bathroom was shared by maybe 3 or so rooms, but I never saw anybody else go in there. Both the toilet area and the shower were clean, no complaints. As my room had a sink, soap and hairdryer, it wasn't inconvenient or a hassle to share the bathroom- it worked fine. A continental breakfast was included, ie yoghurt, eggs, pre-sliced bread, cheese, ham etc. This worked well enough, although access to a toaster would have improved it. Apart from the excellent location, there was a grocery store next door to the hotel, which was convenient. The hotel was easy to find and easy to get to when arriving. As others have pointed out, there are steep stairs and no elevator, so do not book this if you have trouble with stairs. It was not a concern for me. The staff was nice and friendly. I again say manage your expectations- don't come here expecting a three or four star hotel and all the comforts that come with it. Accept that it has it's flaws, but it's a good enough place to sleep in between the days that you explore Amsterdam.

Assigned to the attic room, it doesn't feel very good. The bathroom is very rude. Fortunately, there is no problem with hot water and sewage, and there is no problem with a simple transition overnight. The location is ok, there is a supermarket and tram No. 1 across the road, and it is more convenient to get to the airport and train station. I originally chose a hotel close to the Van Gogh Museum, but later found that this one also needs to walk a few blocks, but it is within walking distance.

We stayed in a large room with 2 single and one double bed and extra room at back. Hotel backs on to Vondel Park so very quiet. Free coffee, hot chocolate, latte etc and yogurt from the lobby besides quite adequate bagged breakfast to start the day. Some might like a closet and fridge. Easy walk to museums, shopping, restaurants, canals and tram stops as well as AirPort Express bus. I’d stay again.

Eccentric place: one of two “hotels” located in what is essentially a building of residential apartments. The Amadi has the reception on the 4th floor and our room was on the 2nd. Stairs/lift take you past residential floors. Pros: Manager was really helpful when we needed to get to the local hospital. Reasonably good location just outside the main canal ring but within walking distance of everything, with tram stops nearby. Local area has plenty of eateries. Room quiet and bed comfortable. Cons: Over-priced for what it is - feels more 3 star than 4 star. No breakfast facilities (though plenty of places nearby) Odd-shaped room with barely any space on one side of the bed. Temperature control on aircon didn’t seem to do anything. Coffee machine didn’t work - a few drips after a lot of straining. And nothing for non-coffee drinkers. List of TV channels didn’t fit with actual channels. BBC1 and BBC2 listed but we never found them. Bathroom poorly designed - a small circular sink with a really small shelf. A slight smell of drains.

Great western Amsterdam is a very good hotel if you prefer to stay a little quiet area. It’s about 30 mins to get into Amsterdam central station and all the popular sight seeing places. The service provided by hotel staffs were generally very good. Room is spacious and clean also Highly recommended

Location wise I think it’s not that convenient as other said. Although it is near the central station, you have to wait for the ferry every time to get across the river. The ferry schedule is frequent, but sometimes if you are carrying a lot of things in city centre or you want to go back to hostel for a rest, it is not that convenient. There is some sort of-called free locker provided but they seem to be occupied at any time anyway. So you will have to pay for the other electronic locker. The room and bathroom is clean and acceptable. But the pillow provided is not comfortable at all.

Missed flight and booked here last minute. Was told its fully booked when arrived and so they upgraded me to the sister apartment hotel next door which shares the same building. Thanks for the Mercure front desk staff for your warm welcome which lights up my rough night a little 👍🏿 The apartment room is superb with high ceiling, full set of kitchenettes so u can cook and bake even with dish washers! Love the sofa and arm chair pick for the living room and very spacious shower space with good hot water pressure. Pretty sure this will make a great stay if u r spending a few more days and in group! Airport train station just across the street so ~15-20mins to airport, or can take bus 369 at the bus terminal across the bridge, great location in general! P.s. pretty sure u get to see the sunset from room view too!

The hotel is located on the outskirts of Amsterdam. It is 35 minutes ride via tram 17 from the central station, but you might have to wait it for about 10 minutes, and there is a 15 minutes walk from tram stop to hotel, so you are looking for about 1 hour to get from hotel to city center. It is a residential area, and there is nothing interesting nearby though you can eat at a very decent Sahan restaurant. On the other hand we saw rabbits and geese near the hotel :-) The room and bathroom were really large, there were beds, a chair, and armchair, a desk, a small round table, a dresser, a closet. The breakfast cost 14.50 euro. and it was excellent. There were hot items (scrambled eggs, fried bacon, kidney beans), cheese, sausages, fruits, pastries, different type of bread, juices, etc. The room and bathroom were clean but the cleaning team cold do better (I accidently dropped a cotton ball on the shower floor and found it on the next day on the same place). Unfortunately there was no tea/coffee in the room. You can buy tea at the reception but it would cost 2 euro. There was no refrigerator in the room. The staff is nice and helping customers providing maps etc. The hotel located about 15-20 minutes from the airport which is also convenient for visiting Keukenhof gardens.

The hotel was great. Very good quality of the equipment. But the services from the Reception was very unkind. The online booking was not great because they announced in Booking website they are not charge the credit card before the the date of the arrival. But they have tried a lot of time to charge my credit card during more than 1 week then they blocked my bank account because my bank though a tentative of fraud. I paid my bank to unblock and made a new credit card. They said it was to save the room... So they are not really in phase with the information giving on their profile in Booking.com. After that, at our arrival, they tried to charge more than expected my reservation (the amount they blocked in my credit card + the full amount of my entire reservation so more than 420 Euros)

We stayed in this hotel from August 31st to September 2nd, myself, my boyfriend and a friend of ours. We took two double rooms, small but really perfect, very clean and welcoming. In this area you are very close to the windmill area which is really worth seeing. We paid €9 per person for the buffet breakfast but it was really well stocked and personally very welcome. A few minutes' walk away is the stop to go both towards Amsterdam Center (you can easily reach it in about twenty minutes by bus) and towards the mill area. In the hotel you also have the possibility of buying the card with the which you can get around on all public transport (which in my opinion is very convenient because there is a public transport service that is exceptional to say the least and very punctual to the second). The staff was very friendly and always smiling, I found the structure in general very beautiful and very clean. We had a really great time and in my opinion this structure is underrated and deserves much more visibility than it has. It was truly an unexpected discovery and very welcome and beautiful.
