How to Get There
Reviews
Staff were welcoming and a pleasure, Recommending places to visit and eat, supplied us with a travel adapter and my partner with extra tea bags to take to the room. Would definitely stay again. Located in centre of Amsterdam, within a 20min walk to any points of interest.
Room was clean, topping up the consumables (soaps, coffee pods) daily.
Had such a fab trip to Amsterdam, the hotel is in the Centre of it all so it's easy to get to everything and so close to a tram stop which was our main travel source.
The hotel was very clean and welcoming; the breakfast was incredible and had everything you wanted.
Would definitely return here when we come back to Amsterdam again!
I had a great stay. The room is clean and modern. The breakfast is good, dinner at the restaurant is nice. The location is excellent. The staff is very friendly. The pricing is good value for money. I would highly recommend The Albus for business and tourist visits, as well as for special occasions.
I went to Amsterdam for a weekend and since it was a last minute trip, I booked the hotel through Hotel Tonight. It was a pleasant surprise. First of all, reviews were accurate. The hotel is boutique with a nice lobby. The check in process was easy and we even got a welcoming reception with a glass of bubbly wine. The restaurant on the lobby was nice as well. The room was clean, a little small but nicely designed and furnished.
This was absolutely even better located than we could have imagined. Personnel was very helpful and kind. If something to complain is that for two ladies there were not enough counting space in the bathroom.
