Hotel Monopole

Hôtel facile à trouver, à environ 20 minutes à pied de la gare centrale, bien situé à Amstel, sur la rivière. Réservé dans une atmosphère conviviale très simple, nous avions une chambre au 4ème étage, l'ascenseur n'allait qu'au 3ème (attention aux escaliers raides). Chambre charmante tout ce que vous pourriez demander, y compris 4 chaînes de télévision anglaise. Très proche d'excellents restaurants, je n'en ai jamais trouvé un mauvais à Amsterdam et tous à un prix très raisonnable. Je suis retourné à l'hôtel vers 20 heures pour débuter la nuit et peu de temps après, la discothèque derrière démarre et dure jusqu'à environ 5 heures du matin. Boum boum, boum, boum et il n'y a pas moyen de s'en cacher, même si l'hôtel déclare que cela fait partie de la liste des éléments inclus. De retour de mes 4 jours d'absence, épuisé.

Le bruit la nuit des clubs et des bars environnants est si intrusif qu'il dépasse tout ce qui est positif à propos de l'hôtel. 2 nuits sans sommeil, gaspillage d'argent ! Je ne recommanderais à personne de rester ici, sauf si vous prévoyez de ne pas dormir pendant la durée de votre séjour.

Overall nice hotel good location everything is within walking distance or there’s a tram station right behind Only downside is the noise at night as there is a club nearby but if your young like me then it doesn’t really bother you, room is a little small but it’s only a place to sleep however bathroom is very clean and nice. Would stay here again

The hotel is in an excellent central location, nice room overlooking the front of the hotel. No facilities on site. The hotel is really noisy, you hear every creak, every door going. There is a nightclub behind the hotel that goes on until at least 4am. Unless you have earplugs you can’t sleep the noise is so loud.

The hotel is in a really good location and made our trip very easy to access a number of areas at ease. The hotel is really clean and modern, our room was small but comfortable and bathroom worked well. We were at the back of the hotel and over looked a concrete block area. We backed on to a very big club and music was loud until 5am. The walls are very thin and can hear normal conversations. Would recommend rooms at the front but a pleasant little place..

I arrived in Amsterdam for a city break with my friend for a birthday celebration, as I approached my hotel, I could not seem to see it, I saw some building work outside a building that my hotel was on and you guessed it, it was my hotel. The front of the hotel had netting and scaffolding up, I understand that buildings need maintenance etc. but I think out of courtesy they should have sent an email advising. The room I chose was for the superior canal view, the only issue is you cannot see it properly because of the netting and scaffolding poles, one again I was not advised of this. I was given the key to my room, once I went in I was quite surprised at how big they had made it look on the photos as it was a lot smaller than expected. But the biggest issue was that it was a double bed, even though the option was for a superior double or twin room. I went down to reception and they explained to me that I should have filled in the special request, now my understand is that is normally for any special access etc. they said that if they did not know then they just do it as a double, I said that it needed to be two singles, but was told that the housekeeper had gone home for the day and it would be done the next. My friend and I went out the next day and on our return the double bed was still made up, I again went to reception and asked why this had not been done and there were no notes of this request. They did offer an extra duvet on the second day but it was pretty pointless. This was a disappointing stay considering the rest of Amsterdam has been lovely and is a beautiful city.

This hotel is very nice and clean. Staff friendly and great location. The main problem is there is a bar behind the hotel that starts the music at 11:00 pm and goes til 4:00 am during the week and 5:00 am on the weekends. It was loud enough to wake my husband and I up. If it was not for the music from the bar, I would highly recommend it. I suggest that if you want some sleep, find another place to stay.

Hotel Oscar was in the perfect location to get around the city by foot. We stayed in a small double room with a canal view. After reading a lot of reviews I was worried about staying here, was very glad we stayed here as the bad reviews are very harsh and untrue from the experience we had. Yes there is pubs and clubs with music but nothing that would vibrate the room or keep you awake but most places in the city will be located not too far away from a pub/ club. Would recommend this place to friends and will be back again.

Given the other reviews on here, I was apprehensive about this hotel and was internally scolding myself for booking on a whim without much research. I am glad however that I did book this hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is clean and modern. There is no bar or restaurant facility, but I imagine this is normal for a lot of hotels in Amsterdam. Coffee, tea and water facilities are available in the lobby. Location is good, right on The Amstel. Most places are within walking distance - Centraal, Rijksmuseum, Dam Square all within pleasant strolls reach. Most negative reviews are regarding the noise. Yes - this hotel does back onto club Escape. Our room was at the back of the hotel, and therefore we could hear the noise on 2 of the 3 nights of our stay. I will say that I didn't find it too bad, and certainly not intolerable. It sort of faded into the background when tired and trying to sleep. It wouldn't put me off booking this hotel again. Overall, this hotel is a good spot for a "reasonable" cost. I would recommend and would stay again.
