Parking garage: unpleasant process. Driving up to the gate, ringing the bell to learn I need to go inside first to get parking spot assigned. So I needed to drive backwards, find a parking spot in front of the hotel. After the checkin I needed to drive to the garage again. There was no sign or prominent information for that process. Too complicated. Check in: I stayed at the hotel several times before and at Motel One Hotels in general more often. Still I needed to provide my cell phone number and ID number again. One reason I choose the same hotels is to have an easier check in process. That was a surprise to me.
everything was perfect
Very good stay, good location between city centre (only 10-15 min by metro) and Johan Cruijff Arena, where we went to the Harry concert. Nice staff, clean room. I always like the design of the Motel One Hotels and the comfy beds.
Wonderful staff, beautiful, clean and relaxing hotel.
Fantastic look and feel, greatest hospitality , super clean and room looks very fresh. We were super happy that we could check in before regular check in times. This is what helped us most as we had to leave for a wedding so we could change & fresh up before party started! Great breakfast in the morning in a very nice and peacefull ambiance! Its a shame that we had to leave early and arrived during night time - so we could not enjoy the bar service but looked very welcoming and hip! Thank you team Amsterdam !
The staff was very friendly, kind and professional at all times, making us feel at home even while in a new country. Keep up the good work.
Excellent and friendly service from staff at check in. Great location and nice clean hotel
At that price it was a bit strange that no extra equipment was available, such as iron, hygiene kit, glasses for drinks, or even a shoehorn. Otherwise good, everyone was very polite and serviceminded, perfect bathroom, and excellent location! Would recommend.
Small, but nice and functional rooms
As always, we had a wonderful stay at Motel One. This one in Amsterdam is spectacular. The rooms are beautiful; they gave us a room on the eighth floor with a view—beautiful. The staff is super friendly, everyone is very helpful. Special mention for hiring several refugees from Ukraine, a very nice gesture.The hotel is outside the city center but very close to the metro and tram. You're in the city center in 15 minutes, but you sleep away from the chaos. Everything was perfect, we'll be back.
Liked the refit of the hotel, lobby and rooms. Staff, especially Felix has been extremely supportive and professional.
The property was beautiful. I joined the members club and got a free upgrade at the time, which was nice. We also arrived earlier than expected and went to the hotel to leave our luggage, when they let us know we could use the from right away since it was already vacant. What a relief! The whole staff was friendly, very polite, and always willing to answer our questions. We are also grateful for Nana who was at the reception when we arrived and made the check-in quite fast and easy. Loved the place and will surely be back!
Nice clean modern hotel. Friendly staff. Close to city centre and public transport.
Very nice property in an excellent location for visiting Keukenhof Gardens which our main reason for visiting Amsterdam on this occasion. It is only two stops on the train from Schilphol airport and an easy walk to the metro station for getting to Central station in Amsterdam. The rooms are compact but well laid out and completely adequate for staying a few days. Reception staff members were all responsive and helpful with our questions and requests.
Very clean, modern hotel with friendly staff and nice rooms.
GOOD: Well located - Friendly Staff - Clean and spacious room IMPROVE: no warm options for breakfast - Media options(tv) - bar closes early
Very quiet hotel. Super friendly staff. Room rates were way too high because of a trade show. Otherwise, it’s typical Motel One—I like it.
Hi, everything was very good, breakfast a bit of chaos and not so comfortable on the lower chairs, tables....
Very clean, modern hotel with great staff. Specially recommended if you are visiting RAI conference center. Near metro and train station for easy access to city center and airport.
Everything is perfect. The location is very good for reach the city center. Lots of public transport alternatives. Rooms were clean. Reception was carinf and smiling. Lobby was great. We loved there so much
Super helpful and friendly staff. Spotless, comfortable room
Breakfast should include lactose free products (cheese, yogurt,…)
Staffs were really kind and helpful. It would be better that a kettle and coffee are provided in a room.
Always a wonderful experience! Clean, quiet, and such a great bar area! Also love that your ts so close to public transit
i like to sit in the bar and do some work, 2 of 3 evenings the wifi did NOT work in the bar, very annoying, neither their staff, nor the receptiion could help. In the rooms it worked. So I had to leave the bar after 1,2 drinks already. Other guests there told me they have the same issue every night. To all Motel Ones: there should be a small FRIDGE in the rooms. It‘s not good!
Reception and bar staff very friendly, helpful and efficient. The hotel was extremely clean and well maintained. The bedroom were also clear and the beds comfortable. The toiletries provided are of a good quality. Only reason it is not a 10 is that the rooms are quite warm despite the aircon being on - and because you can't open the windows, its hard to do anything to change the situation.
Everything was fine, I had only one problem: when I checked in, a member of the staff told me I had breakfast included, but the next morning I discovered it was not, and I had to pay 17,50€
One of the quietest hotels i have been to . Very clean, friendly staff and good location.
A great hotel. Friendly staff, clean, great breakfast and location good for connection to public transport. We enjoyed our stay.
Let's start with the hotel staff who were lovely. The location of the hotel is perfect, 2 minutes walk from the metro station and then 3 stops to the center of Amsterdam. The rooms are clean and spacious. Excellent breakfast. The only downside is that you can't open a window to ventilate, but it's not that bad.
Very pleasant stay, nice hotel, very friendly staff. While the room equipment for storing your clothes etc. may be suitable for short stays, it is a bit sparse for longer stays. I will gladly return.
I have not received my invoice for stay on 28-29 January 2026, Please send the invoice because i am not able to contact you
A hospitality experience begins at the front desk, but unfortunately, the treatment I received from the staff member on duty was unprofessional and dismissive. Specifically: Lack of Professionalism: Upon arrival, I was not greeted. The staff member appeared more interested in talking with other guest for things non-relevant to duty of reception,than assisting me. When I inquired about ehat is the next step after taking my luggage at night (as i early arrive the hotel before check in time), the response was delivered in a condescending and impatient manner. The young female staff member on duty (Caucasian, working the late-night desk on 16 Apr 2026) exhibited a level of service that I found to be highly unprofessional and disrespectful. This is the worst check-in experience. Other than that unprofessional staff, other reception staffs are nice and helpful
Very clean, helpful staff, very comfortable beds. The location is also very good, near both the metro and the train to the airport. Good breakfast, hot bread and coffee. Thank you so much for everything!!!
Friendly staff, professionally run operations.
All staff very friendly and helpful. A very comfortable room. A great breakfast Shame not to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room
Last-minute booking, good price this night by online booking the room, kind people at the desk, good too, good sleep!
We chose Motel One for our trip to Amsterdam because it’s close to the airport (15 minutes) and the city center. It’s very well connected, with the metro just a 5-minute walk away. The rooms are beautiful, modern, clean, and very quiet. The hotel overall is very nice. The breakfast is excellent. It’s a pity there aren’t any places nearby where you can have dinner.
The placement of the reception desk is very awkward: there is not a natural flow from the front door to the reception. I was waiting to be checked-in in front of the desk, but the front desk agents assisted people who arrived after me. I realise that the hotel just underwent renovations, so the floor plan is likely not going to be redone now, but some signage would help. The bathrooms should have exhaust fans. Otherwise, the rooms and common areas are clean, and the bed, as always, is comfortable.
The best stay!👏
Efficient and friendly staff
The place was clean and quiet, with good soundproofing and a nice breakfast. Overall, everything was well maintained and comfortable. However, it didn’t feel truly pet friendly, as there is a fee for the dog but no access allowed to the breakfast area, even on the side. The garage is no guarantee of getting a spot.
We had fabulous stay there was 4 of us we had 2 rooms booked, From the moment we arrived we were greated by staff member who's name was Welinton so kind and very polite all staff were very good , Hotel is really very good beautiful relaxing lounge at the end of your day to relax, Lovely continental breakfast. Transport is just about 5 mns walk and very handy to get around Spotless clean, 😀
The hotel is modern, stylish, and clean. The rooms are not very large, but they are thoughtfully designed and comfortable, with everything you need for a short stay. The bed was especially cozy, which made for a great night’s sleep. One of the highlights is the location, making it super convenient to get around Amsterdam. Whether you're visiting for business or leisure, it’s well connected to the city center and other areas. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay, which added to the positive experience. The lobby and bar area also have a nice atmosphere, perfect for relaxing. The only small downside is the limited space in the rooms and lack of certain amenities like a fridge or coffee-making facilities, but this didn’t significantly impact my stay. Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located, and stylish place to stay in Amsterdam.
I am a happy regular customer and love Motel One. The lady at the check in counter was very friendly and helpful, she really made me feel welcome.
Comfortable room, friendly staff
Hotel was very well decorated and clean only issue was a lot of tables are too low for eating breakfast
- Room: enough space but had a very bad smell and no windows. - Room with a view: The view from the second floor was nothing special. Not worth it.
Everything was perfect, but please take care of some of your exit doors next time, because it was a little bit uncomfortable.
Parking information for flow was inaccurate. Standard parking email a bit blunt and does not take into consideration actual booking.

It is always tulip time in our Motel One Amsterdam - no matter the season. Check in & flourish!
Hotel Amsterdam
Our Motel One Amsterdam in the Netherlands’ capital features the familiar Dutch motifs everywhere you look. A collage of bicycle wheels adorns the breakfast spot, and the One Lounge hosts an abstract art installation using bicycles as an eye-catching partition. Of course we couldn’t neglect the famous “tulips of Amsterdam”: they provide splashes of colour throughout our interiors, and are showcased against a black background in photos paying homage to the still-life works of the Dutch Masters. Echoes of iconic art, a sea of flowers, and the contemporary cult of the bicycle – our Design Hotel shows off Amsterdam from its best angle.
Conveniently situated next to the convention centre at the Amsterdam RAI stop, our affordable Design Hotel is close to the heart of Amsterdam, in fact just a few minutes away by bicycle or public transport. Its characteristic tall and slim houses, cobbled lanes and archetypal urban canals await. Even closer by, the Amstelpark is well worth a visit. Its beautifully-kept lawns are dotted with interesting features, including an example of the quintessential Dutch windmill. Savour the flair of this “town on two wheels”!
