Everyone I interacted with there was professional, helpful, and friendly. Unfortunately, the good service at the front desk didn't extend to the rest of the hotel. The bar and Lotti's restaurant were both consistently understaffed, and the service was extremely slow. Lotti's also seemed to be out of a lot of the main dishes, even though the menu is already pretty limited. As for the rooms, they were okay, but felt a little worn and could really use some updating. Nothing terrible, but for what the hotel charges, I think you should be able to expect a bit more comfort and quality. After checking out the W Hotel nearby, which was much nicer for a similar price, I couldn't help but feel disappointed. For nearly $4500 after taxes for three nights in two rooms at the Hoxton, I honestly felt a bit cheated. Again, the front desk team deserves credit, but overall, I think the Hoxton needs to step up its game to justify these rates.

I say this because all rooms have a clear glass shower in the middle of the room and toilet is also placed within frosted glass sliding doors (see pics). Approaching the hotel, it's very conveniently located for public transit, about 6-7 minutes walk from the Amsterdam Zuid train and metro station, where trams and buses also stop. The area directly around the hotel is mostly residential so street parking is also available. A ramp or a few stairs lead down to the front entrance, and a Jeff Koons balloon dog statue greets you in the foyer, followed to the left by a casual table set up of self-check-in, semi-assisted with friendly staff that come over if they see you looking confused. I appreciated that the entire process was pretty simple, at each iPad station you scan your own key card from a stash of cards to work for your room, also you're allowed to check-in early as long as a room is available. I arrived at 10am and was able to go up to my room right away which was a plus. The rest of the lobby area consists of plenty of seating, a couple dining tables with benches around a central bar/kitchen area, where snacks, drinks (alcoholic and non) and light meals area available to order. Filtered tap or sparkling water also available for all customers to self-serve fill up glass jugs and bring up to your room. Shared co-working and lounge spaces in the lobby were also very colorful and stylish. Staff are willing and able to help with inquiries. The hallways and my room were pretty clean, I wiped a little dust off the desk and bathroom shelves. The bed is very comfortable, (and probably this and the relative ease of public transit are the reasons I would stay here again,) king sized though it's against the window. Pillows were better than most hotels I've recently stayed at. Control for the thermostat, TV, lights, blinds (both day blinds and blackout blinds) are controlled via iPad. TV controls were a bit temperamental, sometimes it wouldn't work or there was a lag, the TV shut off a couple times and I couldn't turn it back on. WiFi was consistent and strong. If you're not familiar with Citizen M they incorporate a lot of witty/humorous content in their presentation so expect to see some of this in the signs and branding around the hotel. Getting to the parts I really didn't like: 1) the lack of privacy by using a glass shower with white curtains that are basically see-thru, and toilet incorporated into the room--really convenient if you're staying with a friend and you want to see them nude, or hear their bathroom functions. For the rest of us, well...not as much. 2) very nice to have a rainforest shower in a small room like this, however aside from aforementioned privacy issues, it's hard to clean and even with good ventilation the humidity will get caught in the shower, resulting in black mold in the sliding shower door tracks both above and below. 3) because the sink is also in the middle of the room, whenever you use it, water inevitably splashes out even being very careful, so you have to wipe it up to avoid tracking dirt and dust all around the room. 4) the room is quite small so if you have anything more than a carryon suitcase there's not much room to open your luggage, also very minimal hanger space, just a few hooks and a few hangers provided. 5) safe in my room didn't work. I kept things locked in my suitcase and was ok. 6) only two outlets in the room, which can be a challenge if you have more than one person needing to charge a few items overnight at the same time. 7) whenever I entered the room the window blinds would automatically open, which I found annoying bc I would have to close them again. The room I was in faced other residential buildings so I didn't particularly want people seeing into my room. 8) last but not least, I'm not sure who decided to place the toilet paper roll dispenser on the the left upper side edge of a toilet with an abnormally high back--imagine trying to reach a foot over your left shoulder or contorting your body at an extremely unnatural bent-over angle to reach and tear off the necessary several squares each time after you use the bathroom...sigh. Or maybe this toilet paper dispenser was built for tall people, not us with the short arms. For some the positives might balance out the negatives, which was generally the case with my stay, and I would consider staying again. However I would also check what other hotels are available next time before booking this as a back up.

The lobby was very corporate looking, with few other guests around. What I liked was the room, very compact like a ship's cabin, with all the amenities hidden away efficiently, no space to waste. The width of the room was the length of the bed. It was all very clean, and the price was right. But my favorite part was the hooker doll on the bed! She was so cute!

This was particularly true of the morning breakfast staff - namely Natascha, Paula, Sabrina, and Thomas. They are the reason we would most definitely stay here if in Amsterdam again. Our room itself was fine. We had a standard king corner room, and it got the job done. There weren't any bells or whistles, and it's clear they have updated some things about the hotel with others still needing that update and refresh. My major complaint was that we didn't really receive a room upgrade despite there being availability. I'm not really one to waive my IHG Diamond status around or try to be "that" kind of hotel guest, but we did politely ask after seeing availability and was told there was no availability. I haven't found the room upgrade benefit to be a universally applied one in Europe to be honest. Had that worked out, we might have had a better impression of the room quality, size, and overall stay. Other than that, the location is solid being so close to the Zuid station. The live music in the bar area on Thursday was great, and in general, the bar was solid overall. If you have club lounge access, there is a club here, but most of the benefits are taken outside of the club. Those additional efforts to make the club lounge benefit meaningful for those with access despite the lounge area itself not really having much were appreciated. Overall, definitely solid. With just a bit more umph to the room, an easy 5-star review.

The thing that really got us was the wonderful service. The desk staff went above and beyond on more than one occasion. We decided to stay an extra two days in Amsterdam because we were having a great time. We booked another night because it was available and they ensured our experience was seamless. Same room, no check in check out. They were full the second night but set us up at their sister property and facilitated the transition. Extremely impressed and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

They have great amenities and helpful staff, though I noticed that the front desk staff were a bit snooty in how they treated me versus some of the other guests on my same tour. I cannot help but wonder if it was because I was about 20-30 years younger than everyone else on the tour and I looked especially disheveled upon checking in after my red eye flight. However, my overall stay was lovely and the rest of the staff were a delight. I even had a chance to visit the spa and gym and pool a few times in my 3 days at this hotel. Highly recommended if you are ever visiting Amsterdam and want to stay close to the museums!

This was a beautiful hotel (love the history attached to it where it was previously a bank and then…read morea music conservatory) with the unique Dutch architecture. We have been fortunate to have stayed at some nice hotels before but this was at the top end of our price range especially with having to get two rooms for our family of four and we were only able to stay here with their stay four days and pay for three promotion. The location was fantastic--close to the museum quarter (steps away from the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh) but out of the tourist hubbub. It had easy transit to both tram (connecting with central station) and bus with stops outside of the hotel. It is near good restaurants as well and bakeries and love that a grocery store was steps away too. The service was fantastic and they were so kind to upgrade us from our original deluxe room to rooftop suites (we had booked three rooms traveling with my parents as well). It was an incredible experience with rooms well appointed and Dutch architecture but so spacious for the city. I had originally booked here since their deluxe rooms were larger than the rooms I was finding in other hotels but loved the views from the windows and ample space with seating areas. My husband enjoyed use of the gym during our stay. It was very zen and fortunately not crowded in the evening hours. We hope to visit Amsterdam again and would plan on returning here since it was an amazing stay despite it being on the top end of our range :). (It looks like the lower rated reviews on yelp are for their restaurant which we didn't try.... the hotel was amazing).

Usually when I think of cheap hotels I think of dirty rooms, cockroaches, funky smells, dangerous neighborhoods, uncomfortable mattresses and everything being a hundred years old. This was not the case at all with EasyHotel. Everything was new and clean. The mattress was new and comfortable. Everything was newly painted and white without a speck of dirty. The room itself was tiny and fit our suitcases and bed and not much else. The tiny room, the white walls and the sanitariness almost made me feel like we were in a insane asylum. Also the bathroom wasn't really a separate room, more like a piece of glass separating it from the bedroom. Any noises or smells that usually stay in the bathroom, entered the bedroom as well. This just made our stay more entertaining and memorable.
