NH City Centre Amsterdam

NH City Centre Amsterdam

10/10 Excellent
"You cannot beat the location of this hotel if you plan to do all the top tourist attractions in Amsterdam. There is no shortage of places to eat and close to the best shopping. My 2 teen kids stayed in the triple room and it was perfect. A little compact but we made it work for our 3 nights stay. Last but not least the staff was so warm and welcoming. The check in was smooth and started our trip off right."
