Date of Stay: November, 2008

did not like 1st room smelt too smokey, dull light needed a lick of paint . Carpet was worn and tatty leading to the room and the rooms decor had seen better days. The sink tap was dripping and must have been for some time as there was a stain in the bowl. I requested a move to a refurbished room as stated on the late room website. Staff was slightly reluctant to do it but did in the end. The next room was much better airier , repainted and with a bay window. It smelt fresh and clean. Admitedly i had asked for a smoking room at reception but originally booked non smoking. But the room was not up to the standard expected for 129Euros a night , i was glad i was allowed to change room.

for a 5 * hotel should b there a free parking

We had only one complaint with the room we stayed in- the maintenance was not up to scratch - there was a crack in the sink in the bathroom and the drain in the shower was broken - spoiled an otherwise nice room.

	Date of Stay: February, 2009
The cleaning lady was a bit unpleasant when we asked for extra tea bags. However the staff at reception were very nice and helpful

Date of Stay: December, 2007

Took the 25 euro upgrade, room was quite nice by European standards for this category of room. Had a really nice balcony too. Hot water a bit touchy, but no big deal. Front desk not the friendliest, but again, its a different country not Orlando! Was here with wife to goof around and let loose for a few days, so had no real complaints about the room; you don't go to Amsterdam to spend half the day in the room! Would stay here again--location between Leidsplien, RLD, Museums, so was great central location, not too far a walk to anywhere.

	Date of Stay: July, 2008
The location was great - about a 20 minute walk to the central station, 5 minutes to the red light district and right on one of the many tram lines.

They need to update their mini bar. I got charged for things that weren't in the bar when I checked in! The staff is unfriendly and unhelpful.

excellent place to stay, good rates through ratestogo.com

While the staff at this hotel are friendly and helpful, it certainly does not meet 4 star standards. It is more of a 3 star hotel - perhaps once a grander hotel, it is in need of an upgrade. Old fashioned furnishings/blankets etc. Staff however was very helpful. We didn't eat breakfast, as felt it was over priced at 20euro (plus 5 if you wanted room service). Hotel was in a good location - just don't expect a 4 star hotel!!

Hotel lobby is OK but the rooms seem ridden hard and put away wet.Wretched pillows and lumpy beds. Also look out to be scalded while taking a shower when the water temp sudden is boiling! They offer room upgrade, spend your money on a better hotel up front. Also beware of the travel agency getting you to your hotel at 7 am but no check in until 2pm, instead of telling you upfront and asking if you are willing to pay for an extra day so you don't have to sit a lobby for 5 hours after a 20 some hour flight. Awful after a flight through from CA only to have an uncofortable room.

	Date of Stay: July, 2008
Great location, near to some great bars and night spots, clubs and live music etc. Plenty of restaurants near by, offering pretty good value for money. Highly recommend.

	Date of Stay: July, 2008
The NH Carlton is located close to everything. I liked that the windows opened up. The bathroom was modern and very clean. The bathtub was very long. I could really stretch out. The food in the restaurant was good especially the breakfast buffet. I had a nice view from my room.

Date of Stay: October, 2007

Despite the lovely exterior, our room needed a serious overhaul. The pillows were lumpy, the bed springs poking. Just really SHABBY. Look out for the shower where you can be scalded by an unexpected bursted of boiling water while showering. These charlatains offer room upgrade for 25 and 50 euro. Save yourself the trouble and book a better hotel from the start. Front desk help is rude beyond belief. The only thng that is in the favor of this wretched hotel is the location. If you plan to spend zero time in your room, this is the place for you. Also be aware of the travel website's service center - would you like to fly from California to Amesterdam(20+ hour flight ) only to be told at 7am that you can't check in until 2pm. Suppose the alledged customer service idiot would ask if we wanted to pay for an extra day at the hotel for immediate check in upon arrival, instead of being forced to sit in a hotel lobby for hours!!

Date of Stay: February, 2008

hotel very good, nice and central for seeing all the sights and bars, the only complaint would be with the reception staff, we arrived early in the morning so we left the luggage with the porters and headed into amsterdam, when we arrived back at 5 oclock we were given the room keys the only thing was when we opened the door to our room there was a young couple on the bed, very funny but embarasing, it turns out there name was very simalar to ours and when they checked in they had been given our room, also the day we checked out the staff on reception were new and it took us ages to check out, we tried asking for the duty manager but were fbbed off by giving us a complaint form to fill in, a great shame really a nice hotel ruined by in competent reception staff.

Date of Stay: July, 2007

We really enjoyed the hotel. The location was perfect--central and accessible to everything, but not in the middle of the party zones. The room was lovely and charming, though some might think it was a bit small. Room cleaning was efficient and professional. I don't think they have a smiling service mentality, so the front desk was not as responsive as I am accustomed to, but that was minor. I only ate in the restaurant once--it was fine, but that doesn't matter because there are places to eat all around.

	Date of Stay: November, 2007
Basic but clean. In a central location within walking distance of the main rail station

	Date of Stay: July, 2007
the look and service are 4-star. Rooms are nice. Best feature is the central position to every attractions in Amsterdam and right to the flower market, walking distance to museums, red light district, everything.

Date of Stay: October, 2007

The hotel is located in an ideal location to access the main areas of Amsterdam such as the shops, canals, red light district and numerous coffee shops. We found the hotel to be well presented, clean and comfortable but expensive. The room was nice with tasteful unsuite bathroom and tv. Noise can be heard from the streets below at night, although this did not effect our stay. We went for a romantic weekend away and would recommend the hotel to other couples, however be prepared to pay an extortionate amount for your stay.

Date of Stay: September, 2007

The Hotel is in an ideal location for sightseeing in Amsterdam. The hotel room was immaculate - clean, white towels every day and the bed linen was changed on our second day. The room was quite small but adequate for our 3 day stay. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel but ate at the restaurant once - the food was very good but the head waiter was a bit pompous!! We were also charged an extra 5% tax on our final account even though we had booked with "late-rooms" Would definitely stay here again.

	Date of Stay: August, 2007
Lovely light room with balcony (nice suprise). Fantastic location easy reach of everything. Really tidy and clean room, best hotel for quality, Many thanks for an enjoyable stay, highly reccommended
