Hotels Near Outland Records in Amsterdam

Stayed here at the end of April for the recent Metallica concerts with a friend. The location was perfect - a five minute walk from Amsterdam Centraal station - and we were pleasantly surprised considering some of the reviews on here. While we only really used it as a base, the reception staff were extremely friendly and we were checked in quickly. Our room was on the second floor and while it had a window, the view was of the next building. No big deal. The room itself looked nothing like some of the pictures previously posted. It was modern, clean, and perfect for two big lads. The bathroom had hot water no matter what time of day and fresh towels every day. The room also has air con and heating and we used both due to the mixed weather while we were there. The breakfast was a buffet style and more than adequate to see you through the morning and most of the early afternoon with a choice of continental and/or English breakfast. A huge thanks to the night receptionist on our last day who whipped something up for us even though we had to check out earlier than the 8am breakfast start time. Considering it's position in the Old Quarter it wasn't as noisy as some previous reviews have suggested - maybe we just got lucky! The staff at The Old Quarter are really friendly and couldn't do enough for us. We loved the train style seating and it's closeness to the brilliant local bars and transport hubs - to get from the hotel to our actual seats at Ajax's ground took 50 minutes from door to door! Brilliant experience and we will definitely consider Hotel Old Quarter next time we are in Amsterdam. Thanks guys and see you soon! (Mark and Tony, Manchester, UK)

We arrived early (about 11.30am) to leave our bags but we were kindly offered a room that was available straight away which was very kind. Our room was clean and spacious. Nice clean linen and comfy beds with a nice view of the Main Street. Air con/heating worked well. No street noise at night that I noticed although we were on the 4th floor. All staff we encountered were very helpful and friendly. Lovely free coffee in reception area. Great budget hotel in an excellent location. Will definitely stay here again

Very unhappy about my stay, on the 1st night an unknown guest of the hotel was issued a keycard to our room without ID and proceeded to enter our room whilst we were asleep. Luckily I had put the security latch in place however if we hadn't of been in the room it would have been a more serious matter. Upon checking out informed I needed to pay a city tax that had already been included in the price that was prepaid before our stay and when informing the staff of this they pushed the matter. I was able to get it refunded however was a 20 minute ordeal that was uncalled for and issued a refund in cash when they requested the payment via card I am extremely unhappy about the stay and won't use the facilities in their chain again!

I could not ask for more! Great amenities at the room and also unbeatable facilities at the hotel. Love the gym and sauna a lot. Only small point deducted on location as it is challenging to walk from the central station with big luggage on check in day according to stairs. Take a tram from the central station is highly recommended only with luggage. Will definitely stay there again if i get chance to be in AMS again.

Definitely one of the coolest hostel I’ve been. Super cool stuff,easy and fast check in and out , great facilities,bar ,coffee shop , hall area super chill atmosphere. I am very satisfied with my stay in this hostel and with reception staff. Location is perfect too . I had lovely stay and will definitely come again and recommend it to everyone. Only one thing is not good ,check in is at 4pm and check out is at 10am 😭 that’s kinda annoying 🤷♀️ but all other things are just great 🤩🤍

Yesterday night we stayed at Di Ann Hotel in Amsterdam just for one night. We paid a total of 192 euros, not the cheapest hotel in the area and disappointment cannot even begin to describe what we felt. When we arrived at the hotel room we were disgusted by the filth that there was present. Bed covers were dirty and had a wet feeling when you touched them, the duvet was covered in big staying, there was only one plug available and the room looked nothing like the picture. What is more, the room was covered in dust and soundproofing was not even in the plans for them. To give you a better vibe think of a creepy motel in the middle of nowhere. To add to this disaster the window that was facing the road was so thin that you felt like you were sleeping on the side of the road. Correct me if I am wrong but hotels are supposed to provide the necessities for your stay, towels, and toilet paper, well this one didn't have any. I have been working in the hotel industry for a few years now and I have been traveling from a very young age. The only thing I can say is that I have stayed in a cabin in the ASmaxon forest and not only was it cleaner and we actually enjoyed our stay it was also way cheaper. When I said to the receptionist all of my problems they just told me they will pass it along. I don't think it's going to lead somewhere, in my opinion, this place has to be closed down its a matter of public health, and calling it a scam is very generous.

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)

Our bed were changed from King size to 2 single beds. The single beds is terrible, but bed frame like not fit, when u make a body turn, the bed will move also. And my partner feel the bed is not clean enough. The room is big but feel very empty. TV is not working the first few days, after we make ask then they change new remote, then everything is fine. Love the body shampoo smell. Location is close to Sloterdik station. very convenient to take train,tram,bus,metro. It is not as busy as Centraal, but not many options of food surrounding. Spar is the convenient shop we must pass by everynight we come back to hotel. U can get food and drinks there. We get salad & fruits before heading to hotel everynight.

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

I chose this hôtel as I was travelling from the UK to see Dépêche Mode at the Ziggo Dome. And stayed two nights. Jaz in the City is just steps away from the Ziggo entrance so you can’t get any closer! It’s also great as a base for Amsterdam sightseeing. From the airport there’s a direct train (hotel is a 10-15 min walk from Bijlmer ArenA station). You can also hop on the metro here for a 20 min ride to Centraal. As Amsterdams public transport is so good (compared to Bristol in the UK where I live) you can confidently rely on it to get you wherever you need to be efficiently! Staff at the hotel are super friendly and helpful. From front desk, bar, restaurant and housekeeping. Everyone (thankfully) spoke English which is ideal for me as I can just about say hello and thank you in Dutch! Special shout out to Mr Omelette Maker at breakfast. The perfect start to a day of sightseeing!! I’m sure they’re are cheaper options but I’m of an age where I understand that you get what you pay for. This hotel in my opinion is great. It looks good, is super clean and well maintained and importantly ＜feels＞ good.
