Hotels near Bultje van John in Ouder-Amstel

We arrived Friday night and someone came into our room at 4am.. I dressed and went to reception and told staff and asked what was going on. They said it was them who entered room as computer does not work at night and she forgot to tick off the paper work so thought room was empty. So showed guests to it. We had only checked in a few hours earlier! I asked to see a manager as she did not appreciate how scary this was and was confrontational. This is when she began to swear, shout and threaten to put me out of the hotel as she had ”the power”. Two other guests came in and she then began to swear and shout at them and told them she would put them out and she w ould just put all the english people out! I reported to manager in the morning and requested refund as I did not feel safe or welcome but was told only head office could make decision and we're closed until Monday so had to stay. Hair dryer did not work and no replacement available so I had to ask to go to another room but it didn't work there either so after third room it did but there was no concern that I was getting ready for a wedding. Manager on Monday was not interested and did not think there was anything wrong in what her staff did. Disgusting hotel, rude staff and a yoghurt lid lay on the hallway floor for two days before anyone removed it.

Beautifully arranged indoors camping with a very engaged, friendly and extremely caring owner. Surely can be recommended for people wanting to sleep in a peaceful and calm surroundings, but in the same time very easy access to the city center by Metro.

The hotel reception was very lovely and pleasant, the hotel was clean and I enjoyed my stay would definitely book this hotel again whenever I am in Amsterdam.

Stayed at the amazing Via Amsterdam recently. First impressions were great a lady helped us massively before arrival answering all our queries in reservations and was very helpful with tips of places to visit and getting tickets etc even very helpful travel tips from the airport. We came to check in and loved the place it’s about a 10 minute walk from the local station could be done quicker once you know the route. The whole reception lay out is huge, lots of seating, games area, even it’s own cinema area. We had a very nice gentleman on check in called Bart who was lovely, he helped us with directions, booking breakfast and dining tips. We dined in the Bar called the dude and had a couple of drinks. Bar is quite expensive but nice vibe only fault we found was a very limited restaurant menu choice, we did eat the burgers (no other choice) and they are recommended but you don’t want to eat the same thing every night. Rooms are spacious but quite sp**** could do with a table and a couple of chairs to be fair so you can sit and chat. Very clean and comfy beds. Showers only and a bit small but offer free shampoo and shower gel, no towels so bring your own. Breakfast was a bit of a poor show and could do with improvements. For the amount you pay it’s not worth it. You could go into Amsterdam and buy something better for cheaper. We had seen online people complaining about not being central but honestly it’s no issue there is a metro within walking distance and takes you directly into Amsterdam central in about 15 minutes and run regularly. Overall had an fantastic stay and would highly recommend to anyone. You cannot fault the place. I did have a nightmare after checkout tho and was my only complaint as I was overcharged and tried for nearly a month to get a refund from the manager jonannes who wouldn’t speak to me because apparently he was too busy (not the best customer service from a manager) I tried calling and emailing but he just wouldn’t reply or sort the problem and other poor staff tried to make excuses for it not being sorted sooner, it was eventually sorted by someone else but after such a good stay it did leave me feeling slightly disappointed. Hopefully he has improved his customer service by now as this does not reflect on how good this place actually is.

Good stay but the shuttle was very disorganised and the bus driver was rude and unhelpful explaining the stops the shuttle was makibg. This wasn't helped by the fact that 2 of the hotels are called Of us Amsterdam airport and have a similar address on the website. The only distinguishing feature being the word budget. Overall good and was able to get in to Amsterdam for the evening whilst being close to the airport.

My worst hotel experience in a long time, the front desk officers looked and acted ĺĺĺke. they were not conversant with the situations . Hotel is so unkept and most features are broken. Wc doesn't stop running when flushed ... bathroom had molds in the shower. It was an awful experience for me. Even if the receptionist had little or no control over the situation that are management issue. No shower caps

So it was our first time in Amsterdam and only having recommendations for restaurants meant that we were unsure what/where to stay… so we let price ish be our guide. We opted for the Best Western in Amstelveen and the fact that it was a global hotel chain you can really go wrong… We had booked a package holiday minus the transfer from Airport to hotel. So from the airport we purchased 2x 3 day tourist travel cards and caught the next train to Amsterdam central station. Then we turned on Apple Maps and input the hotel address and set it to public transport. Tram 24, tram 5 then tram 25 heading towards Sacharovlaan station. From the station the hotel is situated next to a Volvo garage and other businesses and is about a 5 to 10 minute walk. The room was huge, the bed was bigger than our king size. There’s plenty of power points, a TV (which we couldn’t get working..?) air conditioning and heated floors in the bathroom. A Nespresso machine and pods were in the room and a hair dryer (that seemed to overheat and shutdown frequently). We booked B&B and it’s served until 10:30. It’s not the best variety for breakfast, obviously catering for a continental style. Personal preferences I would have liked the sausages to be less anaemic. Our room was on the 3rd floor and quite quiet as it was the opposite side to the businesses. They do take a €150 pre approved deposit on a credit card that they will take if there’s any issues with the room after you have checked out. Yes the hotel is approximately a 40 minute tram ride to the city centre but we didn’t mind travelling each time. One last thing to note is, you don’t have to go to Centraal Station from the airport to get to the hotel. Instead from the airport train station look for trains to Zuid, then catch the tram 25 to Sacharovlaan. Our 3 day tourist public transport pass ran out before our departure so we brought a 1 hour travel pass as hotel to Zuid to airport is about 40 minutes buuuuut that ticket wouldn’t allow us to enter the train station, so we had to buy some one way tickets from Zuid to airport. That worked 😃

The hotel is close to public transport (10 minute walk) and the staff are quite friendly. They had a nice little store so you could buy a beer or bag of chips late at night. The only thing that stops me from putting 5 stars…no usb outlets. I totally get that the outlets for power are not universal, but everybody has a phone, and a USB port by the bed is needed for people that don’t have a wall adapter. Add that and this place would get 5 stars.

The location was great .. just 3 min wqlking from the metro and train .. room size was good .. the cleanines wasnt good last day we found the bed sheet was dirty .. but over all the hotel was great ...and facilites was amazing
