Radisson Blu Hotel Amsterdam Reviews

This hotel is terrible. Let me tell you a story of what happened when I stayed here a year ago in April.

I stayed here and got a free upgrade to a suite as i'm a conceirge member, which admittedly was quite nice. But they never informed us that they would be POWER DRILLING DIRECTLY ABOVE OUR ROOM AT 8AM the very next morning - Not regular drilling - but full on power tool drilling. If i actually paid for this room I would be absolutely fuming.

I go to the desk, still in shock from the scare and reasonable ask for a different room. The guy at the desk was a bit of a douche and while being pretty rude also said something along the lines of 'drilling happening all around the hotel'. Great. Well thanks for letting me know when I checked in...

So I ask to be moved to a room where there is no drilling (2 night stay), and the same thing happens again - at 8am the next morning.

I never actually did go spare as I was using my points - But beware of this hotel - I would actually have preferred to pay for somewhere else using my own money, because spending your two day holiday sleep deprived is not fun at all.... This is amsterdam, obviously we are going to want to lie in in the morning. Power drilling at 8am is not reasonable under any stretch - can you not make this happen at 11am or something? Come on....

Nice place,good service and of course its always a plus to be in the middle of Amsterdam and close to all places!

Entrance in a different building from main hotel is confusing.

A great hotel in the center with very professional and friendly service. I would recommend !!!

Just off the beaten path, close enough to Old Center Amsterdam's sites and shops to walk everywhere yet quiet at night. The staff were unfailingly helpful and pleasant.

We had a comfortable room in the new South building, across the street from reception and accessed through an underground tunnel. Having to go down, over, then up to exit the hotel was a bit of an inconvenience, but not too onerous. Not very close to trams or metro, but scarcely a problem in this eminently walkable city.

We would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is very central. Service is very good. Beds are too soft. Food is excellent in the restaurant. A little too overpriced, but that's a problem all over Amsterdam.

The rooms are nice, beds are real comfortable but it costs but not great value.

Only one negative point, no outside street view from the room..

Serene environment, big and comfortable room, courteous and friendly staff

Very clean... nice place with inside bar... great breakfest... that's exectly in center of Amsterdam... but really quite... some of coffeshops just in a few metters... nice staff... really good place to stay in Amsterdam for some days...

Team friendly but the worst Radisson ever in terms of comfort (have spent more than 40 nights in Radisson in recent years ...) We had a "Junior Suite" paid more than 500 per night this we (without breakfast ... ) with a bathroom of 3m2 ... incl the toilet! The deco of the hotel is very old and the restaurant is very cheap! Good luck to those who wish to stay there. Another note: the hotel is almost inaccessible by car after 8pm.
Sorry for the team.

March 2016. In the very center, everything is very close, convenient, and you are already in the center of events ... BUT the price is simply insanely huge, like a presidential suite in Germany. Although 4 **** stars, but for this money you can take the presidential suite in 5 ***** stars in Germany!

Rooms were OK, BUT: Expensive, no pool, half of breakfast buffet was gone at 10am on Sunday (opened until 11:30 am), they offer no bikes, no shuttle service, just NOTHING!!! We won't go there again!

Only had a drink at the bar but it's super quaint and part of an old church. Would love to stay here sometime.

I was there for work, the hotel is very well located, however I had a room with a single bed and a terrible bedding. The bathroom is very small and the spa takes an hour to be at temperature. I imagined something else for a 4 star. The breakfast is good and it is very quiet. Some small improvements including the fact that the lockers below were not available. It should unlock locks ...

Great staff, very friendly and helpful. I was in a room on the top floor, it s was modern and stylish but a low ceiling made it feel a bit cramped. The food in the restaurant was top quality and reasonable priced.

we enjoyed it very much and would love to come back. I understand that it is difficult to do everything perfectly in Corona times. The breakfast was delicious despite the plastic packaging that took some getting used to. Best regards, see you soon Michael & Mara

Great location and wonderful service. If I stay in Amsterdam, I will stay at the Radisson Blu.

Very excellent location - the rooms are cleaned

Excellent location - great and clean rooms

Nice little hotel in the center with really small (and expensive) parking garage

Beautiful hotel with interesting architecture, not far from Dam square.

Location not good for families & children
Friendly staff
Helpful staff.
Good breakfast .
Perfect & amazing lobby.

Clean hotel in every detail I stayed here.
You are in the center, super breakfast

Desk was very helpful. Very approachable. An incredible breakfast with something for every nation. Watch the step into the bathroom in some of the rooms. Free wifi for 24hrs great for checking into family after travel.

Beautiful reception with a warm welcome. Room is adequate with good facilities including WiFi.

Friendly. Centrally located. Only the service at breakfast is very slow.

This hotel is in a good, central location, not too far from Dam Square and the Red Light District. Nearby are a some nice restaurants & cafes, a small supermarket within a 5 minute walk and also 3-4 coffeshops, with Rusland being almost directly opposite...

Staff were friendly. Our room was spacious with a lovely big bed, great smart TV with screen mirroring and Apple airdrop so we could stream Netflix etc and a nice bathroom. Breakfast was good and although we didn t dine in, the hotel restaurant looked like it offered some nice dishes for dinner.

Our room was on the first floor, with a window which which looked out to a seating area above the reception- not ideal as our curtains had to be closed all day, unless we wanted an audience, and it meant we couldn t see outside/ had no natural light. I d definitely recommend asking for a street facing room if your room is on the first floor.

Other than that I couldn t fault this place and would definitely stay here again.

Hotel is located close to Dam Square in the wonderful Dutch capital

Great location, pretty average rooms but it does the job

Paid for breakfast, hotel informed us we should leave for airport earlier than we scheduled. Left without breakfast. Hotel would not refund purchased breakfast. Arrived 3.5 hrs too early at airport. Purchased another breakfast at airport and sat around. but all else was wonderful, helpful hotel. If we get refunded , we will never look for another hotel. Update the hotel refunded the breakfast I will always stay here

the bar is very beautiful in the center with an early 20th century atmosphere

Pretty close to the station. The room was nice and clean. The bed was comfortable. The water temperature wasn't consistent.

Good hotel in the heart of Amsterdam with beautiful lanes inside

Location very good, breakfast buffet good. Gym is not for bodybuilders. Minimal equipment, tiny room. Tiny sauna.

Nicely situated with underground parking. 5-minute walk to the red light district if that. A cafe right on the corner for a smaller selection.

Clean hotel. Very professional staff, nice rooms. We liked the ice machine on the floor. Best : we payed incredibel 10 euros for the night due to a lucky deal. Surely it was a mistake at the booking portal

Great service and the front desk was very responsive. Check in was a snap, the room was nice, just send a little expensive. Location was pretty nice and was close to everything we did while there (although we ended up walking through the red light district with our three year old white following Google maps, luckily she didn't pay much attention to the stores)

As an inexperienced European traveler I found the staff very helpful

Amazing hotel, fabulous location and wonderful staff.

Excellent hotel! Big comfortable bed with good quality bedding. Perfect location, right in the centre and easy to reach the sights. Only 15 minutes walk from Amsterdam Central Station. Highly recommended!!!!!

Good location, small and cozy, very different and beautiful lobby. Is my second time here and I would come back gladly!

Near the best environment. In 10 minutes around you have the most relevant museums (Anne Frank, Van Gogh and Rembrandt House), or if you prefer the Red Light Zone, Damm Square, the Royal Palace and the Central Train Station. Comfortable and good attention. Bad experience in nearby restaurant called Burger Zaken.

Excellent food, comfortable rooms, accessible location without a car

Very good hotel, ideally located for a short city break.

The rooms are comfortable, spacious, and the staff very friendly.

The breakfast buffet (a bit expensive) is very complete.

The service at the pub / bar was on the other hand a little more mixed (long wait ...), and the sauna out of order.

Stayed here on our trip to Amsterdam and thoroughly enjoyed it!

This hotel is close to the city center from 3 to 5 minutes walk to the oldest and there are plenty of groceries, supermarkets, bread and lots of consumer shops around it. Suitable for all family members and spacious rooms for more than 2 people.

it was very hot there inside an air conditioner would be handy.

Comfortable rooms Cleansed. Room service is not efficient. Water and coffee every day. Breakfast buffet egg, bacon, ham, waffles, juice. Single room 440 euros per night

The Brand is well-known. What you expect is what you get. Good hotel, centrally in the heart of Amsterdam.

Great hotel in central Amsterdam. The check-in process and the pricing needs improvement. For example, being cheaper as a walk-in than what is prepaid is ridiculous. The location is excellent.

After the first time in the morning and I will be a good time to time. I am a very long time ago and have been working in a couple weeks ago by the time to get
