Was a little unsure what to expect after mixed reviews but it worked out good for us. Was expecting a tiny room & steep stairs as we had booked a twin room but they gave us a spacious, ground-floor triple room like the one in the picture. Didn't bother with breakfast, just hopped on a number 4 or 25 tram... more

I booked this hotel at recommendation of a friend who lives nearby plus the favourable Trip Advisor reviews. My favourite boutique hotel located in the Jordaan district [Hotel Van Onna] was fully booked for the time of my stay. Hotel Aalborg is located south of the old centre of town, overlooking Sarphatipark. It is easily accessible by tram from Centraal... more

Pocket knive went missing soon after maid had cleaned room, Clean towels thats about it. Pubic hair in bed and an assortment of hair on floor. Stayed in 3star last time in the dam. This hotel was more like 1 star. Maybe some rooms were nicer? The shower if u want to call it that was more like a wash... more

I really can’t understand some of the negative comments within the reviews for this hotel. I agree the rooms are on the bijou side but who stays in the room on a visit to Amsterdam. We visit regularly and have usually stayed in the centre, but this time thought to spread our wings a little. It’s only a No 24... more

I stayed here for 3 nights during the ISE show 2008. I had a very small, but quite cosy room up in the top corner of the hotel overlooking the Sarphatipark which was nice. Very clean and comfortable. The breakfast suited me perfectly, however I only usually go for the cereal - I don't make a big deal out of... more

We stayed here because the price seemed really good and the pictures looked nice on the web, but we decided that you can stay elsewhere in amsterdam that is much better for not much more (or less money). if you're young and on a budget, you're better off staying at one of the better hostels. if you're older and have... more

The Aalborg is clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. We stayed with 2 young infants and they did their best to accommodate us. Breakfast is decent (but not outstanding). The bar is open 24 hrs. The location is excellent. Close to museums, parks, and city centre. I would thoroughly recommend anyone who is on a limited budget... more

I stayed here for two night back in March 2008. I booked at the last minute online while sitting in Berlin Hauptbahnhof waiting for the night train to Amsterdam, and got a decent price compared to many other hotels near the center of Amsterdam. I believe it was 65EUR/night or about $100USD at the time. For what I paid you... more

I had to canceled my reservation several days prior to my stay and the jerks still charged my credit card for a full-night's stay even though hotels at the time in Amsterdam were at full capacity, i.e. they undoubtedly filled my room that night. Perhaps this is standard procedure in Holland but I sure won't ever stay at this joint. more
