Not stayed at those particular hotels. But I recommend you take a look at the link below http://www.channels.nl/ It has a very active Amsterdam forum for such questions together with a decent knowledge base where you can research most decent hotels and their ratings, etc. Hope this helps
thank you i have already tryed there forum a few days ago but nothing has come from there as of yet! thanks
Blimey, that surprises me, I can't believe that. Have you accessed the forum and asked people in there.? I know for a fact several members have stayed at the hotels you talk of. Also, was there nothing in the knowledge base of use.? Usually if you type in the Hotel your interested in using Google but putting the word ''REVIEW'' before the hotel name, seems to help I find.
i have ask about the hotel in the forum and nothing! i have picked out 2 hotels the winston and the greenhouse they both look like fun and are in the right place...i have read some bad reviews about them both and some good so going to take a chance on one of them and hope i come out alive! still if anyone has stayed at one of them please let me know what ya think thank you star
Sometimes I've found the Channels forum superb for info regarding Amsterdam, no doubt about it. You may have just caught an off day in there or more than likely the person with the particular experience one is looking for is bored with replying with the same answers, it happens, don't take offence to it. As far as the Greenhouse is concerned, their bud is very good, however as far as I know the hotel part is in Warmoesstraat street which can be ultra busy day & night especially if you have a room overlooking the street, so be prepared for lots of pedestrian street noise. Luckily no traffic or trams use this street apart from street cleaning machines and beer lorries in the morning. Also you are very close to 1 or 2 chuches and the bell ringing can sometimes be relentless at times first thing. All in all, imo, I think the Greenhouse is overpriced. I think they have a themed decor for each room if I remember correctly. Believe me there are many other hotels to choose from for less, but I'm sure you'll have a great time wherever you end up. Enjoy
you might try the reviews section at channels.nl ...use the A to Z button on the left to find them. http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowForum-g188553-i58-The_Netherlands.html ...also has even more hotel reviews. Click on the hotel tab at top and sort by centre and hotel name to find your choices faster. Of the four hotels I'd group three of them together as being right in the thick of things which to me means party places noisey 24 hours a day (I'm a light sleeper) and grubby. But the Rho is in a different neighborhood although it's only a couple of blocks from the others. If you choose the Rho ask for a room away from Damstraat for peace and quiet.
hey ya thanks for your replays...ive also had some on the channels now to its going to be the winston or greenhouse, i pick them to as they look like fun and not ya normal hotel! tho ive has more good on the winston hotel so looks like its going to be there! i know its in a busy noisy part but thats where i want to be..im used to the noise living in a city center! thanks for your help
hi, i stayed in "stayok" (near the vangogh museum) hostels, because we couldnt find another, it was little nerdy but was a very nice hostel walking distance is ok (15 minute to dam square) lot of nice places around too a friendly, kinda cheap, clean good hostel etc...
If you're staying for 3 days or more, check these links out. These are great deals if you have a couple of people to split costs with. www.citymundo.com www.frederic.nl They are apartments and houseboats. As cheap as hotel if played right. I have used both and can recommend them highly.
