Just back from a weekend in Amsterdam where we stayed in the Swissotel. It is in a great location being in Dam Square. 5 different trams stop outside the door, the no.'s 4,9,16,24 & 25 and nearby the 14 & 2 so you can get anywhere by tram if you don't feel like walking. The staff were extremely courteous and... More

I stayed at the hotel in the beginning of Jan. 2012. By my mistake, I had a problem during my trip (I don't go to the detail of my problem), however everyone of the hotel helped me a lot, they always took care of me, thought what they can do for me, tried to make my stay better.

We love this hotel and have stayed here many times. We splurge on the largest suite and always love the room and modern bathrooms. Great location! More

My friend and I stayed here for 3 nights from Saturday 14th January! After much shopping about for a hotel, we settled on Swisshotel. What can I say, other than a fantastic hotel! Right in the heart of the city on Dam Square, 5 minute walk from central station and the city as a whole is walk able from here!... More

Thank you for recommending Swissôtel Amsterdam. Booking a hotel is always sort of a gamble. Review websites such as Tripadvisor come in really handy, as they generally offer a really fair image of what to expect. Thank you for bringing up the safety issue. We are often asked whether it’s safe to go outside at night. The answer is a... More

We enjoyed our stay at the Swissotel, has everything you need. Staff friendly and helpful. Very good location on Dam Square. Excessively priced internet but they have a business centre with three computers and printer which was handy. Can hear other guests coming and going and cleaners in the morning - rooms could be better soundproofed. More

I've stayed here twice, last time being about 2 years ago. The hotel is in a brilliant location. You're near everything! Rooms are clean and very modern, the beds are one of the comfiest I've slept in. Housekeeping very efficient as well. Front desk staff also very helpful and friendly. Room service is also recommended. Great hotel. Highly recommended! More

I stayed at Swissotel Amsterdam during the Christmas break 2011. The hotel is at a very convenient location, right at Dam Square. One could even walk up to the hotel from the Amsterdam Centraal Station, its like a 5min walk. So on arrival, I had my reservation in place. I asked for an upgrade, and I was upgraded to a... More

My wife and I recently spent 10 nights at the Swissotel in Amsterdam. The location is great. If you arrive at the Central Station you can easily walk from the train station to the hotel. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes and its a nice walk. This walk will take you along one of the main streets in Amsterdam,... More

Thanks for the review. I wish you had reported the broken coffee machine during your stay, because we could have had it replaced right away. We have a battery of Nespresso Machines on stock. The breakfast is serviced by Dam Plaza Restaurant. Although based in the same building as Swissôtel Amsterdam, Dam Plaza is ‘de facto’ not managed by the... More
