The Bastion Deluxe is a great base from where you can explore the delights of Amsterdam. The hotel is about 10mins by bus from the central station in Amsterdam (route 32 or 33) .You approach the front (which seems like the back) of the hotel via a carpark,past a Japanese restaurant. After arriving early for check-in we filled out the... more

First things first. This hotel is not a five-star, or even a four-star, so you have to accept that you're going to get what you pay for. That being said, my friend and I were visiting Amsterdam last minute and on a budget, so we were pleasantly surprised by the comfort of the rooms and the friendliness of the staff.... more

Good location, just out of the centre, bus stop right outside though where you can catch the bus to central station. Free WiFi is good for business travellers. Service at the bar and restaurant was very slow. Meals took ages to come to our tables, some items weren't available. Rooms were clean and tidy. Nice shower and bathroom. I wouldn't... more

Having listened to friends comments about more central hotels and the noise, especially from the trams in the wee small hours, we opted to stay slightly out of the centre and this was a good choice. It's only about 10mins on the bus from Centraal Station and the buses are very frequent with an hourly night service after midnight. Check... more

Good value for money considering the alternatives. However don`t stay on a weekday if you wish to sleep in. Jackhammers at 8am is not a pleasant thing to wake up to. Apparently management don`t care about their customers shown by the fact that they are renovating during peak summer season. Staff said that the workers were told not to start... more

The hotel was ok, close to the bus stop of Bus 32 and 33 that end at amsterdam central station, about a 10 minutes drive - though don't expect to get seats. The busses leave every 7 to (night) 15 minutes until 1:00 pm. Due to the holiday season (shortly before eastern) it was the best value hotel we could... more

I have no problem with this hotel, nice and clean room, near the bus-stop..... more

I went to Amsterdam with a good friend hoping to have a fine time and see some sights. We booked last minute, and all the good hostels had no vacancies, so we decided to spend a little extra on a decent-looking hotel. Big. Mistake. We traveled all day and were exhausted, and by the time finally got to the front... more

When saying Amsterdam, this neighborhood is definitely not the place where you wanted to be. There is a direct bus link to Central Station though. The front staff is inexperienced, and has a selfish attitude. When asking for a copy, we were made to wait 10 minutes, without significant indication why we were made to do so. Then, we decided... more
