Amsterdam Hotel Guide - Blauw Jan hotels in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

"Yes"

"I was really looking forward to my time in Amsterdam, but this stay was a massive disappointment. Between the lack of hygiene and some very questionable management practices, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. The most alarming part of the stay was the complete lack of security regarding luggage. When we needed to store our bags, the staff just let us walk into the storage closet by ourselves. Anyone could have easily walked off with someone else's belongings. It felt incredibly unsafe and unprofessional. The cleanliness was also well below par. There was a persistent, heavy smell of mold in the room that made it feel damp and unhygienic. It’s clear that maintenance and deep cleaning are not a priority here. There was staining on the iron board, sofa, and the shower curtains were nasty. The women working the morning shift were not welcoming or kind. It felt like a burden just to speak with them. The staff working at night were much nicer and more helpful, but their kindness couldn't make up for the overall state of the hotel. Overall, the combination of a moldy environment and the "self-service" security for personal property makes this a place to avoid. "

"Room was small but practical for a European city"

"Twin room was larger than I thought it would be. Quite clean. Staff were helpful and friendly for the most part. A couple of evening "concierge" men were rude and not helpful. The morning one was awesome. One more criticism - the shower floor is extremely slippery. My granddaughter slipped and I did also. Grab bars and a textured floor would make them so much safer! Overall, it was a great stay, very very close to everything near Centraal station. "

"Good location small rooms "

"Amazing location and great service. We loved our time at Park Centraal!"

"Clean up to date room, friendly helpful staff. Great location"

"The location is fantastic. The staff is very friendly and very welcoming. The rooms are spacious and we had room 502 which had a nice balcony overlooking the city and an expensive footprint which left room for a couch and chairs as well as a queen size bed and desk. The negatives here unfortunately include a TV that didn't work, ants in the bathroom and on the desk and a bathroom that smelled like sewer. Other than that it was great."

"The location of the hotel is perfect. It is in a central, safe location, walkable to most attractions in the city or easy access to public transportation. The front desk was always staffed. The location was the highlight. Otherwise the room was very small and exceptionally warm despite not having the heat on. No AC but they did provide a small floor desk fan. We did not pay for the breakfast. Overall would recommend for a great location to explore the city!"
