Hotels in Bos en Lommer, Amsterdam

A group of us stayed at this hostel over the past weekend it was everything we needed for the price point. The staff were extremely kind and helpful in attending to our needs. Transport links are a quick walk away to get to the centre of Amsterdam.

An American’s perspective Traveling for work for almost 4 weeks. I had the 2 bedroom apartment at almost 800 square feet. The layout had the bedrooms along one long hallway and while divided by the water closet and shower bathroom , the bedrooms did not have any doors. So the bedrooms are semi private from eachother. Not totally private. The open concept living room and kitchen area was very large and well appointed with a pull out couch and table and chairs for 6. The smart tv worked well there were two walls with full windows. One side had 2 windows that partially opened and a front balcony door that could open but you weren’t allowed to open it fully. Only about 5 inches. It was very hot and humid when I arrived so the inability to open windows for cross breeze and the poor air conditioning made it unbearable . They did provide a fan which helped, and eventually the heat spell passed. The beds were comfy but the mattress topper was extremely soft and it was better without it. No windows in the sleeping areas. Plenty of closet space and a safe but no drawers. Closets with shelving to stack things. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils , an electric cook top and a convection oven. I didn’t cook on the cooktop because the pans were too worn looking. I am sure if I asked they would’ve given me a cleaner looking one. Dishwasher worked fine. Apartment sized fridge with freezer. Bigger than a dorm fridge. No ice cube trays. Outlets. There were Plenty in the bedroom areas but not enough in the living room. Only 2, but lucky I had an extension adapter to reach to use my laptop at the kitchen table. Free Wi-Fi. Someone else mentioned that the lobby is very dark and it is. It’s not lit very well and gloomy upon arrival. That paired with the “garden” in the front seems very bleak and grey. But that could be construed as normal for Europe. I believe they only clean on a weekly basis for extended stays. The cleaning person that did clean my unit did a great job. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. The reason I didn’t give them 5 stars was because one day my friend came back to the room and it had 4 men in it fixing a window. I told the front desk that I understood they had a repair but they did not tell me. The front desk staff said they did not know about it either and was very apologetic but if they didn’t know then who let them in ? I had the do not disturb sign on , yet they still entered. There is no smoking in the hotel but the **** smell is still rampant. I guess that’s normal now. The smoke alarms did go off a few times. But the staff communicated through a speaker if it was a true emergency which it wasn’t. It’s sully people burning food. It was convenient to have food delivered through Uber eats or the Amsterdam version of door dash. Groceries can be delivered through Klink. There is a small restaurant in the lobby that has a limited menu. But convenient to grab a light meal. There are 2 supermarkets

Staffs are friendly. Breakfast superb. Fast service, receptionist need to be more aware on reservations made

Excellent location right smack in the center of the shopping street. Walking distance to many places. Room is ok and decent for the price you paid for. Basic amenities provided but note that they do not have facial tissue or bedroom slipper provided. The room probably not suitable for friends who are body shy? There is a hole to the bathroom sliding door, so there’s basically no privacy to it. Overall, pretty happy with the stay.

Staff super friendly!!! But the bed was three bunk bed and I got the top one, it’s VERY high up I’m telling you that, like it’s not the normal high, and you have shower and toilet in the room which I don’t think it’s a good idea. The locations was alright, but if you wanna go to centre you definitely need to use some kinda transportation (bike, bus or taxi) it’s not really walkable especially if you have your luggage w you. My experience with Amsterdam was okay but nothing really impressed me. I don’t this the price performance for visiting this city is super low. Overall I wouldn’t come back to this hostel again FIY the hostel DOES NOT have microwave so don’t even try to get cheap microwave food if you are staying here.

The hotel was great. Very good quality of the equipment. But the services from the Reception was very unkind. The online booking was not great because they announced in Booking website they are not charge the credit card before the the date of the arrival. But they have tried a lot of time to charge my credit card during more than 1 week then they blocked my bank account because my bank though a tentative of fraud. I paid my bank to unblock and made a new credit card. They said it was to save the room... So they are not really in phase with the information giving on their profile in Booking.com. After that, at our arrival, they tried to charge more than expected my reservation (the amount they blocked in my credit card + the full amount of my entire reservation so more than 420 Euros)

Hotel was great for the price you pay. The rooms are tiny (barely enough room to open a suitcase) and although situated conveniently next to a metro station is in the middle of nowhere but again, you get what you pay for and the lobby, gym and communal areas are well designed and well kept. If you don’t mind a 15/20min Metro travel to Amsterdam Centraal you wouldn’t mind it here I give the hotel 2 stars because I accidentally left my Apple Airpod headphones in the lobby area the day I checked out to visit another hotel in Amsterdam, although when I called Hotel Leonardo that same night to ask them if they’d been handed in I was told they hadn’t. I travelled down to the hotel the next morning to be told the same thing, that there were no headphones that had been handed in but they asked for my name and previous room number so they could contact me should they turn up. Luckily I was able to make my lost AirPods make a sound (findmyiphone feature you can activate when you lose a device) and I could hear them beeping behind the front desk so I told the receptionist that I knew they were behind the desk and she eventually handed them over. I firmly believe the hotel staff were trying to keep my misplaced AirPods headphones and if I had not been able to make the sound from the Airpods they would have pocketed them

Sanitation and convenient transportation There are many restaurants nearby, It is a good place to stay, There is also a bar and room service in the hotel, which is very convenient. The service staff is also very friendly

This hotel provides excellent breakfast, which made our travels in Holland joyful and pleasant. The sauna is also great place to relax after long and busy travel journey. There is no shops or nearby restaurant except those in hotels, but the hotel already provides two different options of restaurants. The staffs are kind, it has a beautiful river view, close to the metro station, and very clean facilities. I will definitely visit the hotel again.

Great hotel in Amsterdam, Great staff ,lovely room overlooking harbour ,Easy walking distance to city centre about 20minutes. Only negative is that the dinning room staff kept my change from the bill from dinner assuming it was a tip. they were not happy when we questioned this and become quite rude. it was only 3 euro but do not keep my money , give me the option with what I decide to do with my money
