Jaime, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great stay at Hotel Library in Amsterdam. They let us check in early, which was amazing after an overnight flight from Boston. The room was spotless, and the reception staff were super friendly. It’s also in a really central location, which made it easy to get around. Honestly can’t fault anything. Only small suggestion would be to have a glass in the bathroom for brushing teeth, otherwise, everything was perfect!

The hotel is 10-15 minutes from Amsterdam Central station. Easy access to the main tourist attractions along the canals. The room was clean, beds were comfortable. We used the hotel for 1 night only during a stopover.

The room was clean, but a bit tired looking. However, the pillows were great, and the bed comfortable. The bathroom had been updated and the water pressure was amazing. The location was great and close to everything, especially Centraal.
