Eden Hotel Amsterdam
10/10 Excellent
"This was a lovely room in a great hotel. The layout is a little bit strange with the tub and shower being enclosed off from the rest of the room with a glass wall, but we quickly got used to that. Overall, it was a wonderful place to stay."
"I really enjoyed my stay here and in the neighborhood. It was easy to get here with public transportation to and from the airport and I found many of the things I wanted to see within a 15-20 minute walking distance from the hotel, and rarely took the metro. As for the hotel, it was clean, the staff was very courteous, the room was a good size, and I hope to return soon. "
"This hotel is an architectural masterpiece in a fantastic location.
The staff are all friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.
My room was stunning with a canal view and a dreamy bathroom.
I love the Green Stay option.
I’ll definitely be returning!"
"Loved that the hotel itself is super close to the metro, so could go in and out of the city center easily but also enjoy quiet time being a bit further out than the hussle and bussle. On top of that, the hotel itself was beautifully done, environmentally friendly and wonderful staff! "
