Hotel Terminus - Amsterdam

7.9

Normal twin rooms are not so large: I suggest to book an executive room that will cost a little more. Wifi is available but You have to pay. Just few meters from the hotel You can find a good and cheap internet center. Breakfast is good and confortable:12€

8.9

Overall, our stay was very pleasant (especially because of a kababayan-receptionist's warm and friendly assistance) and the place was very accessible to many areas. Definitely, I will be returning there.

6.3

I had problems with Internet access, which was very expensive. Welcoming and staff are pretty poor. Overall, a deceiving hotel.

4.8

The hotel is very near to the train station and the city centre. Well served by buses and tram but it is located in a ugly street and the level is very low not according with a good 3 Stars. Public areas are dirty and in bad condition. The room was at the ground floor, noisy and very little, with poor light and a window opening in a little court. In the morning we had smell of kitchen. The bathroom was old and in bad conditions. Check in is at 3 p.m. and check out is at 11 a.m.

8.0

Very spacious room for a single traveller (twin room). Great location. Clean, but smell of cleaning products very strong! Rooms not very soundproof, but with earplugs, it's fine!

7.9

lo consiglio, centralissimo, molto carino, le camere pulite,l'unico problema della nostra che avendo le tipiche finestre olandesi sono fisse, quindi non cambia mai l'aria...per il resto ok!!ci tornerei.

8.0

The hotel is quite close to central station, pretty convenient. The room is spacious and clean. Remember to look for the discount cards in hotel first, can save you some money if you need to buy the IAmsterdam card!

6.1

Hotel very central, open 24 hours, clean; with two main problems : - too noisy in the morning due to the churchs' bells (better insonorisation is welcome). wake up at 08.00 and difficult to continue sleeping - room with very few space (7 cm between the two beds) Good for single, friends and young copy

7.4

The location of the hotel is good. The receptionates are friendly and helpful. I have a breakfast meal. It was very nice with a different type of food.

2.9

Arriving at the hotel the receptionist was kind and efficient. The first room that i was offered was so poor it had a horrible smell and mould was growing on the bathroom ceiling. I complained and was given a second room that was small and situated to the rear with all the noises of the air con systems, though my room had no air con. The communial areas of the hotel were in a poor state and the carpets were dirty and stained. This hotel was no more than a 1 or 2 star at best. I have stayed in many 4 star hotels in Spain and the 'Terminus' cannot compare to the quality here. I would advise anyone to think twice about staying there VERY VERY POOR and not value for the money paid.

7.2

Hotel muy bien situado, proximo a la estación y a la calle Damrak, de donde parten excursiones a otras ciudades y por los canales. Agradable la habitacion, con vistas a las torres de la vieja iglesia, aunque algo ruidosa en la noche por su proximidad al barrio rojo. El desayuno bien.

8.5

our room was quite big ,really nice and clean. The hotel is in the centrum of Amsterdam (2 minutes walk from the station)but it's located in a quiet street so we had no noise at all. we really recommend this hotel and we hope to return there soon!

7.3

We had an "executive" triple room for three people and a standard double room for the other two. The executive room was definitely a lot nicer in appearance than the standard. The location of the Terminus can not be beat if you're looking to party. Right on the edge of the Red Light District and very close to the main train station. Almost impossible to get lost from here!

7.1

Centralissimo, hotel pulito, camere spaziose, buon rapporto qualità prezzo. Camere un po' rumorose, e tutte non fumatori (a differenza di quanto c'è scritto nel sito)

7.2

We were not very sure of the cleanliness and quietness of the room based on the previous guest's comments, but we had a very clean and quite a quiet room (considering the location of the hotel - in front of the famous red light district!) It was a pleasant stay. I would also recommend that you first inquire about the room before booking it, because all rooms are different.

7.5

Had a triple room and a double room for a group of friends. The triple room was great. Only downside was the noise. Very difficult to sleep.

4.1

Been to the Dam on many occasions. This place is over-priced for a room with no breakfast! We were initially given a tiny, dark little room, right next to a busy lift! The room looked directly out into another room. The toilet didn't work, and constantly ran. On complaining to the asian receptionist we were given attitude, and a lack of willingness to move us until her supervisor stepped in to offer us a more satisfactory room. They then started jibbering away and laughing obviously at our expense! I won't use this hotel again.

4.7

Hotel has totally diffrent rooms. This year the room was not convinient. Bathroom was not hygienical! (awful smell), old sanitary equipment.

7.0

The room itself was great considering the price and location. However, a church nearby rang the bells every 15 minutes from 7am until 11pm. I know this is out of the hotel's control, but it was extremely annoying and made sleeping late and/or napping impossible.

8.4

This was our second stay within a month and as with the first we had a clean, comfortable room (this 2nd room was much larger than the first however). The staff were very helpful and accommodating with requests we made. The only complaint we had was the noise from the street as we were on ground level this time but it quieted down after midnight and all was well. The hotel is a short 10 minute walk from Amsterdam Central and an excellent location from which to do sightseeing and bar hopping/restaurants. The first room had an unpleasant sewer odour in the bathroom which was not present in this room fortunately. Service for Internet cafe is also very close.

6.5

Well located hotel. However the room floor is noisy and the room windows need to be upgraded with double glazed windows to prevent noise from the street.

9.0

Ideal location, 5 mins walk from Central station, close to shopping, restaurants and in the middle of red light district. Despite it's location, hotel was safe, and our room was very quiet. Spacious room, large bathroom, comfy beds, air con and TV. Only downfall, top flight of stairs more like ladder than actual staircase, but not a problem for us. Would def stay again.

9.1

Everything written on the web about the Terminus Hotel were exact. The hotel is in the city center, very clean with spacious rooms and the staff are very helpful. Very accessible and very appropriate for tourists who are staying for a short or long time.Really enjoyed our stay there.

7.7

just in the middle of Red Light District. Very well located to be ready for the action! Very nice rooms.

8.9

I made this trip to Amsterdam for one reason only - as a base from which to visit the Keukenhof Tulip Festival. I knew from previous vacations in Amsterdam where the hotel is situated and it fitted my plans exactly. Although it is on the edge of the often noisy and always touristy red-light area, my room at the back of the hotel was very quiet and I slept very well. The English-speaking staff were all friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was basic Dutch but more than adequate.

10

Terminus Hotel is very central, a few steps and you are in the red district. The staff is amazingly nice, we had extra luggage after traveling for 26 day in Europe and they upgraded the room so we would have a suite in the first floor with no extra cost. The suite was actually 2 stories, AMAZING!

7.3

The Hotel is nice but it is a little bit difficult to get to the rooms especially if you have to carry your luggage, many stairs. To many rugs with dust and very closed spaces. Well located. Nice people who assit you.

2.9

We arrived at 11 in the morning to check in, and had to wait 20 minutes to check in. The clerk then told us the wrong way to our rooms. The elevator would always go to the 3rd floor, even if pressing the button for first floor. We waited 20 minutes for the repair man, who did not show in that time so we had to use the stair case with baby car! Afterwards we asked the clerk where we could get some authentic dutch food, and she recommended us the olde Holland or something. DO NOT GO THERE! Worst food ever. I could have cooked better, and I'm bad at it. what a bad recommendation that was... At night the room was quite cold and my wife was freezing. So I call the night manager and as for a blanket. Instead, he tells me to turn on the heating (which I already had and was not working). So he tells me he will bring an extra blanket which he doesn't. After several calls with him promising me to come right away and one hour passing I went downstairs myself and got the blanket from him. Location is nice, but three stars?!?! Oh, and they do offer WLAN, but it costs you around 15€ per day. And it's not even secure. What a joke. You could also use the Internet PCs in the lobby for 6€ per HOUR! You have the possibilty to book elsewhere, I warmly recommend to do so.

9.1

TYhe Hotel was a little hard to find but once there it was better than the web site had indicated. We were very pleased. It was one of the nicer hotels we stayed at. There was a lift but quite a few stairs.

8.6

Very nice and spacious room, with bath. Central station in minutes. Of course, late in the evenings it is easy to find "drunk people"... it is close to the red light. There are a lot of restaurants, bars and "coffee shops" around. Van Gogh museum is easy to reach by tram 21 in the Damrak street.

7.2

excellent location, very clean, comfortable bed.

4.8

I have stayed at this hotel about 4 times now. This stay was the poorest as previously it has been average to excellent (depending on room and staff). This time the welcome was not that great, the receptionist was not very helpful and sent us in the wrong direction to the room and did not have a clue how to use the credit card machine. Charged my card with the amount instead of just using it as an authorisation for the weekend was not a great welcome at all. Then put in a tiny attic room whereby workman were outside decorating in the mornings and rather noisey too! As I said this is a shame because previous stays have been great....until now. The one thing I love about this hotel is the location.

8.2

first time my wife and i have been to amsterdam.stayed for two nights. this hotel is in the perfect location,a couple of minutes from central station and in the middle of everything you need to see. rooms were clean.use the lift,dont try the stairs if you have just sampled the local delicacy from the nearby coffee-shops.

9.8

Close to Central Station. It takes just 20 min from the airport to the hotel, which is at walking distance from the station. In the very centre of Amsterdam and close to bars, etc. Comfortable rooms with very kind staff.

9.1

Overall, great location and facilities. Some noise outside, but earplugs provided in room. Only real downside was lack of parking on property. Parking provided by private company that took 60 minutes to arrive to pick up car. They did take great care of car and delivered to hotel right on time for departure.

10

Me and my Partner stayed for three days over Christmas 2007, we were in the same room as before which was ideal. All the staff are VERY friendly, they smile, and talk to you, the rooms are well heated and the beds are amazingly comfortable. A very good Hotel to stay at, not to expensive and in a very good position for shopping, bars and the central station.

7.4

This hotel is exactly what you need when staying in Amsterdam. The location is perfect it is 2 minutes from Dam Square, the Red Light and 5 mins to central station. Would definitely stay here again. This hotel is not for you if you are the type to order room service, but lets face it, who wants that is the Dam...

9.3

perfect location a few yards from the red light distright, and only 5 minutes walk from the train station. nice room, friendly staff.

6.8

The room is a little bit small, the heating was not working properly but the bed was really confortable. The location is very near to the central station.

7.3

The hotel is very well located: near the central station (3 min walk) and close to major attractions. It's also close to the red light distric, which is a downside regarding surroundings (the area is dirty, and late in the evenings is easy to find drunk people, ...). The price is expensive compared to similar hotels in other European cities, but it seems that in Amsterdam having a hotel is quite a good business: even the cheapest hotel was above 100€ a night. Would consider going back there only for holidays; if it is a business trip perhaps it will be better to go a bit further and avoid the area.

8.0

The hotel is easily reached by walking from Central Station. Very convenient to gay street Warmoestraat just behind the hotel. The breakfast was ample and delicious and not so expensive as some european hotels (10 euros) The room was a good size, very comfy beds. The hotel has a lift and some rather quirky little staircases, rather fun.

8.2

very nice and spacious room, especially for amsterdam standards. there was no view, but that's the only negative.

6.8

It was an excellent location and hotel for a couple of days in Amsterdam even though on edge of Red light district we ( two women) had no problems and felt extremely safe. The happy hours in the bar and staff were fun and helpful. Breakfast though pricy was good and extensive

7.6

Traveling with friends, all 25-30 age range in Amsterdam for 2 days. Directions given on webpage were IMPOSSIBLE and at one point told us to "go to "the end of the canal boats". What? Anyway, it's a good thing everyone in holland knows english : ) Other than that a fantastic stay - some people were complaining that they didnt get their wake up calls, but I never set one up so I can't speak to that. Go stay there - it's not TOO pricey and it's got a great location.

8.6

Close to center and tourist sites. Room was nice, clean, and well equipped. We stowed our luggage after check out and even returned there with a grocery store bought lunch, which we ate at the large table in the lobby after getting permission from the clerk. They were very accomodating. Only downside is the noise noise noise noise. We stayed on a Saturday night and might as well have been in the middle of a stadium. There was much partying down below our window. Not a problem for me though, so I didn't mark the hotel down much for this. It's all part of the excitement of Amsterdam. I just took a couple benedryl and slept just fine. But if noise bothers you, you might ask for a quiet room if you're there on a weekend. Sunday night was not bad at all.

7.9

hôtel très bien situé, à quelques minutes de la gare, près du centre et à côté du red light quarter,propreté en ordre,chambre ok,nous avions une chambre très tranquille, pas de bruit extérieur(316)épaisseur cloison un peu faible, déjeuner ok mais trop cher...euro 12.50

6.4

Nuestra habitación era sencilla, sin lujos pero limpia y correcta. El hotel está en una calle tranquila, justo en la frontera del Barrio Rojo pero sin estar en su meollo. Céntrico.

8.3

Très bon rapport qualité-prix pour un hôtel à Amsterdam . Très bien situé pour découvrir Amsterdam à pied. Seul bémol si vous avez le sommeil léger : une église qui sonne toutes les demi-heures à partir de 6 heures du matin et jusqu'à environ minuit (l'hôtel fournit les boules Quiès). Demander une chambre sur l'arrière pour plus de calme. Possibilité de parking en partenariat avec l'hôtel. On vient vous chercher la voiture à l'hôtel et vous la rammène le jour de votre départ à l'heure que vous voulez pour 30 €. C'es très pratique dans une ville comme Amsterdam où il est difficile de se garer dans les rues et où les parkings sont très chers ! On reviendra dans cet hôtel avec grand plaisir.

3.0

A complete let down. It was the last leg of our honeymoon and the worst experience. The room was not a double by normal standards. We had the top floor room which was very small and many support beams from the ceiling. Parking shows private in the advertising. They have NO parking. In front of the hotel is 4.5 euro per hour. They offer a parking service 20. euro per night and 10 euro everytime you need the car. The brochure shows a beautiful parking garage when in fact it is a dusty warehouse. The wouldn't bring my car for 3 hours. I had to be transported to the garage. All in all very disappointing. Would never recommend this hotel.

3.6

Il retro dell’albergo da su una strada del quartiere a luci rosse, quindi fino alle prime ore del mattino ( e anche dopo) si sente di tutto e di più. Noi avevamo la camera 24, al piano terra, pertanto alcune notti era veramente difficile dormire. Sconsiglio perciò vivamente questo albergo.

9.9

My mother lost forgot her Engagement ring in the room when we left the hotel. we contacted them the next day to inform them, they came back to us and mailed it back to us. Very good service and honesty, I would def recommend this hotel

5.2

I have stayed at the hotel before, so I knew how to find it and the quality of the rooms. When I got the bill from the hotel, the price was higher than I got from Venere. The hotel checked their papers, and admit that they have made an error. No discussion nor heavy arguments was necessary. That gave me a impression that the hotel is fair and square - and Venere too.

6.2

the hotel is really in the city center, but getting to the room is like a laberinth, they din't clean our room one day and it was a little noisy. Our last day they gave us a room in the celar at the road level, quite big but the bathroom was very old.

9.0

Excellent

8.0

Good deal for a weeknight stay. Dangerous stairways but that's normal for Amsterdam. Didn't try the expensive breakfast. Great location.

9.3

On the very edge of the red light district this hotel was ideally situated for bars, coffeshops, restaurants and easy access to trams and central station. We were a group of three girls and felt very safe at the Terminus. It was my fourth trip to the dam and this hotel was probably the best value for money so far. We paid 441 euros for three people for three nights (approx. £34 p/p/p/n). Although close to the busy area it was suprisingly quiet inside the hotel. Wouldn't really think this hotel is suitable for large groups, stag and hen parties etc. as it is quiet and laid back.

9.1

I liked it very much. I advise u 2 visit Terminus. It's situated in city center i mean near central station so u can get 2 any place in Amsterdam and near Dam square, Red light district and so on...you can get there on foot...So have a good time in Terminus in Amsterdam=)

6.7

Quiet nice place in the herat of amsterdam so near to everything! This is not the best place for people who look for relax!Perfect for poeple who want to be in the middle of amstedam funniest place!

9.1

AS A GROUP OF 3 FRIENDS WE STAYED IN THIS HOTEL FOR 2 NIGHTS 14TH-16TH NOVEMBER. IT IS LITERALLY 5 MINUTES WALK FROM THE CENTRAL STATION AND 5 MINUTES TOPS THE OTHER WAY TO DAM SQUARE. IT IS SITUATED ON THE EDGE OF THE RED LIGHT AREA A COUPLE OF DOORS AWAY FROM THE GRASSHOPPER PUB. IT IS NOT IN ANY WAY SEEDY AND WE FELT 100% SAFE AT ALL TIMES. WOULD RECOMEND THIS HOTEL FOR ITS LOCATION AND FOR THE NICENESS OF THE HOTEL. ALL IN ALL A VERY GOOD HOTEL FROM WHICH WE HAVE NO COMPLAINTS.

9.8

We were staying in Amsterdam for the weekend of Leather Pride, and the Hotel offered excellent proximity to the Gay bars.

8.3

We chose a business double so did not see regular room. Hotel is well located near Bourse, 5 mins from Central Station. We asked for a non-smoking room but I doubt this exists in Amsterdam, as so many smoke everywhere!

3.4

the quality of the room was poor my partener and myself received a number of flea bits there were holes in th doors there was stale cans of coke underneath the bed we were also put at the very top of the building were the elevator only took you to the second floor we had to take our suitcases a further two floors up some steep stairs when i asked was there a safety deposit box available to put our passports etc as in the booklet provided on arrival it stated if there was no deposit box in your room they would provide one the staff were really un helpful summary the staff were sometimes helpful location of the room was poor cleanliness of room poor the most upset were the flea bites from the unclean bedding room 457,

7.9

Good Location in the heart of downtown. Convienent to the Train Station. A bit noisey on the street below our window at night. NonSmokers noticed a smokey odor - esp in lobby.
