Character and value
The American Hotel is an excellent choice if you prefer decent hotels with character rather than the monotony of more modern chain hotels. It’s location is excellent, particularly if you want to avoid some of the, shall we say "less reputable" areas of the city. (I was travelling with my 10 y.o. son.) It’s a 5 - 10 minute walk from the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gough Museum, even closer to Vondelspark. The shopping district, Flower Market, and a large selection of restaurants (especially if you want Argentinian beef) are also within easy walking distance. The common areas of the hotel are not luxurius, but they are clean and retain the character of a fine old hotel, particularly the dining room. The rooms, although a bit tight (as is typical of a European hotel of this vintage), have been updated to a modern standard. The only real negative was the expensive and painfully slow internet connection.

Good Hotel with Uneven service
Upon arrival at 10 am I was not suprised to learn that our room had not yet been cleaned and could not be given to us. After spending several hours touring the neighborhod and having lunch I checked back several times. By 3 pm my jet lag and patience finally ended. We got our room about 4 pm and suprisingly found dust in it. It had not been fully cleaned or had been sitting empty for sometime. and could have been given to me earlier. I found the hotel staff unsympathetic about their $25/hr interneet fees. This price ended up presenting no problem as I could not get the house internet machines to accept my credit card and never succeeded in using their machines and again recieved a lack of sympathy or help from the staff.. Thankfully other hotels in the area had machines available. A few employees were a bit too busy to be helpful on ocasion. On the plus side I got several good nights sleep and really enjoyed the location. Canal boat or Trams wait for you outside the hotel door and more resteraunts than you can imagine. When I wiegh the good agaionst the bad I think I will go to the Marriot on the nearby corner next time I visit Amsterdam.
