The City Hotel is a friendly, clean and basic hotel in the heart of Amsterdam. I've stayed here on three occasion in the past eight years and always found the staff to be friendly and informative, the room to be clean and the breakfast good. On our last stay, our room was small but had everything we needed - TV,... more

Only stayed one night, quiet close to the Red Light District etc. OK for a lads break but wouldnt advise staying there as part of a couple, theres much better vaule for money in Amsterdam for that. Easy to find Hotel, come out of Amsterdam Central Stion, cross main road, turn left & keep walking, you cant miss it more

We just had our second and third stays at the City Hotel, bookending our recent trip. We will definitely stay here again on our next Europe adventure. Booking is easy at hotels.nl. The hotel is very central with easy access to all parts of the inner canal belts by walking or biking (rent bikes!!). The hotel is clean and safe... more

This hotel had a good, central location. The hotel attendant was very nice and helpful in suggesting how to get around. The room accomodation was sufficient for what we needed (a place to crash after a night of partying) and had a nice view of the Heineken horses in the AM. The Old Bell Pub (below the hotel) had great... more

Stayed for 2 nights in a triple room, with two mates. As mentioned in an earlier review, you have to ascend the staircase of death to get there, Dutch staircases are not for the faint hearted or clumsy! 3 floors later, we arrived at door 11A. When we opened the door, we were confronted with more stairs! This led through... more

After paying up front at reception we took our lives in our hands and tackled the 'staircase of death' to the top of the hotel. Our relief at reaching the top was short lived. Outside our room we were met with a broken window, an old vacuum cleaner blocking the door to the room and a smell which is best... more

Just returend from a 5-days Amsterdam trip together with my boyfriend. We had no problems at all while staying at the City Hotel (Utrechtsestr 2, above The Old Bell). Rooms were clean and spacious, so were bathroom and all other facilities. Breakfast buffet was opulent and staff were friendly and helpful. Previous comments about stolen items were probably written with... more
