Review of: Ibis Hotel, Central Station, Amsterdam

3/5 (minimum 1)

by tom on 11 Mar 2008

Conveniently located next to Centraal Station (and opposite the amazing multi-storey bike park), but otherwise a fairly run of the mill Ibis. It's having a major re-furb, which is good because the rooms are a bit dated and tired looking, with a kind of Eastern Bloc feel. I guess the refurb won't increase the average room size though, which is a shame as they're a bit pokey.

The staff at reception are friendly, although one of the cleaning staff kept knocking on my door to see if she could clean my room, despite it being 1 hour before checkout and despite the Do Not Disturb sign on my door! When she knocked again at 11:40am and I reminded her that checkout wasn't until midday she had the gall to tell me that it was getting close to 12. This was really annoying, but at least the reception staff were apologetic. The free breakfast (free while the refurb is finished) could be a little more inspiring.
