This hotel was wonderful- got a very early check in from the airport and very considerate service. We had the beautiful honeymoon suite and loved the private, secret balcony on the 2nd floor. Perfect service, a spotless room with great amenities. Yes, outside the city center so if this is a problem, reconsider- a most comfortable bed-very impressed! more

We stayed for two nights at Intercontinental Amstel Hotel, hotel being situated on the Amstel River not in the centre of the city but ideally placed for transport links and not too long a walk to the centre. On arrival we were directed to a receptionist to check-in and asked to sit down while a room was found for us.... more

For our honeymoon I surprised my wife and took her to this hotel. We're not that rich so this hotel was once in a lifetime experience. It met all my expectations, it was the highlight of our trip to Holland without a doubt. I even think U2 were staying there at the same time as us ! more

The room was large with a 6 foot King Size Bed. The... more

Amazing hotel! beautiful, clean and the staff went out of their way for us. We have stayed at many top hotels and this is one of the best. We didn't know what to expect since some of our stay was free nights using points ( another Intercontinental we stayed at was less than gracious when we used our points). They... more

I managed to book two nights in this hotel using 80000 priority club points that I had managed to accumulate over the years. Therefore I did not have to pay a penny for my stay, I have to say that this has to be the best use of points I could ever imagine. The hotel was superb. I had been... more

First off, I would still recommend the Amstel and would most probably stay there on my next trip to Amsterdam but, sadly, it simply isn't as good as it was! This could partly be that I have become more spolt over the years but I did find the service a bit lack-lustre this trip, as if the hotel staff have... more

My wife and I had a one-night stay in April. The canal view was atmospheric; the location is far enough, but not too far from the madding crowds and the room was everything you could expect from a top-tier property. more
