The hotel is pretty decent and the location is excellent. The hotel is only one block from the Rijks museum and is located right next to the posh shoping street with all the expensive designers. Several tram lines are near by. Front desk staff are very nice and helpful. The rooms are very basic but not too small. The bathroom... More

Good location near tourist attractions and some good pubs and coffee shops. Some rooms have canal view, very nice. Room are too small, but bathrooms are very nice and clean. I was disappointed with the service, that really wasn't a warm welcome with a smile. And they forgot to give me points for this stay.

We got a room in a basement, very small and dark, shower tiny too and we kept hitting the step leading to the shower, especially at night. Clean room and great location, but too expensive because of that.

Stayed recently for my bday. Rooms were lovely but weird door to bathroom that was semi see through. Room was very clean. Hired bikes from the hotel for E16 and had a great day cycling around Amsterdam. Didn't pay for breakfast but they let us get as many coffees as we wanted for free in the morning... Which was very...

I used this hotel for a couple of weeks during an extended business stay. The most positive aspect is the location. At awling distance from public transport and Leidse plein, with lots of restaurants. The hotel is such is basically worn out and offers basic comfort. Most of the floors are wood with carpet on top, resulting in a lot... More

We have spent a couple of days in this hotel and we were disappointed from the beginning to the end of our stay. Basically, when we arrived at night we were informed that "there was a problem" and that all rooms were occupied, despite the fact that we had a confirmed reservation. While I was waiting for a solution, my... More

100 metres from the Rijks Museum and close to so much of what Amsterdam has to offered. Helpful, intelligent and pleasant staff, good bar, small bedrooms, nice but tiny bathrooms (barely room for one!) but great value.

Booked the Apollo as there were few hotels with vacancies - due to the Europe League cup final. This also meant that the room rate was approx double their usual rates - classic supply & demand I guess. I'll review on the basis of what would be the "normal" rates, which is perhaps more fair.... Hotel staff were very helpful,... More

Great location, very close to trams, museums and the parks. Staff were helpful and friendly. Rooms were fairly small, as is the same for most of Amsterdam though I believe. Only gripes I have - we were given a twin room despite being a couple (both males, maybe this is why?) however, it is not a big deal. Also, prices... More

Staying in any hotel for 11 days during peak season is likely to be tiresome, but we found the front desk of the Apollo extremely responsive, helpful and supportive of our family visit, including 3 grandchildren in their own room. Our experience was very favorable. Although the housekeeping service was a bit variable, it was understandable due to the very... More
