My Birthday Weekend in Amsterdam!

Hallo!!!!  I am procrastinating some homework to write this blog about my amazing weekend in Amsterdam!!! The weekend began on Friday, which was my birthday!!!  I got sung to in Dutch at lunch in the DH! It was pretty awesome!  At 2:30 after my European Lit class, Vanessa, Chris, Audrey, and I left for Amsterdam.  In order to get there, we had to take an hour long bus ride to Nijmegen and then get on a train for another hour and a half.  We finally made it though.  On our way to our hostel, w...

Amsterdam at last

So here we are in our final city.... Amsterdam ! Interesting place, I must say. Wonderful mix of this and that, almost feels like home. Everybody speaks english, all the signs are I'm English too. Very easy. But crazy at the same time.... Today is exploration day. And our final bit of shopping day. Seems like every one of these cities is fill to the brim with shopping! It's rather nice here though (weather-wise and scenery-wise). Amsterdam is very walkable - we can get to just about anywhere ...

One last day

So, this is it -- our last day in Europe.... kindof sad, but yet we are also looking forward to coming home. If nothing else, our pocketbooks will thank us!! I started out the day by visiting the Van Gogh Museum. I really had been looking forward to this as I enjoy his work. I got there bright and early, along with everybody else! It was totally packed. Art is really popular in Europe for sure. They had more Van Goghs than anywhere else, and it included works from his entire career, which I l...

My Weekend in Amsterdam! So for my first travel weekend I ventured to Amsterdam which is about a 2-3 hour trip from where I'm living in Well. On the way there, we got the scenic tour of rural Holland-which is super pretty. As if all that beautiful scenery wasn't enough, I decided to take myself and the group that I was travelling with on a scenic tour of our own kind around the city in a desperate attempt to find our hostel. (I have no idea who the genius was that put me in charge of the map ...

Historical Traveler Reviews of Trianon Hotel Amsterdam

Very good location

from A TripAdvisor Member
Good stay at TRIANON

I stayed there from 03rd to 05th AUGUST 2005.

The room i had bookd was a single one (it means a single bed) with bathroom ensuite.

I found the bathroom quite big but the room was like a corridor (it was what i expected so i was not disappointed).

The room was clean and the staff friendly.T

The only thing i regretted was that there was no remote control for tv so once you are in bed you have to get out off your bed every time you want to chage the channel.

The breakfast which was included as i had booked through expedia was typical dutch one (gouda, smoked meat,yoghourt,juices,hot bevergae, bread, jams,honey and butter).

The location was just 2 minures walk from the tram station museuplein (line 5 and 2) on the corner.

It is also 5 minutes walk to the VAn Gogh museum and the RIjksmuseum.

All in all a good choices for people who intend to be not far from the museums and with good access to the public transports.

I will definitely return .

Lower end of budget class hotels

from A TripAdvisor Member
While I wasn't expecting the lap of luxury, this hotel was very poor.

I was in a single room barely 5 ft wide. At one point, because of the location of a table, there was only 12 inches of space available to squeeze by. (I had to put the chair on the bed to get past)

Surprisingly, the bed was actually a bunk bed. The top part was folded up against the wall. I could not imagine 2 people sharing this room.

Other gripes: I had to leave a deposit of €15.00 to get a remote control for the TV. The shower had to be hand-held as the bracket on the wall was so loose the water simply dribbled down the wall. The shower was fitted over a half-bath. I didn't have a problem with that. However, the sides of the bath were extremely high and it was quite difficult to step out and in with doing oneself a mischief.

Having paid a significant single room supplement, I would have expected something a little better for my money.

I concur with the other reviewers regarding creaking floorboards, musty smell etc. Having said that, bedding was clean, water was very hot and an adaquate number of clean towels were provided.

I would have like Tea/coffee making facilities.

Terrible

from A TripAdvisor Member
Carpet was filthy. Beds were uncomfortable. No heating in the room. What else can I say but avoid this hotel ! Staff were friendly though as with a smile we were told their hotel was booked out and couldn't change our rooms. Oh, good location.

Telling it like it is

from A TripAdvisor Member
The Trianon hotel was fairly easy to find ( best if you go by taxi-worth the €35 to prevent getting lost) the hotel has a nice reception, small and cosy. Most of the staff are friendly though they didn't say much and didn't offer much advice on where to go or how to get there when asked. The hotel doesn't have the bar it claims to have, it has a small desktop fridge that sell coca-cola sized tins of Heinekin beer for €2 each and it has a vending machine that is also quite sparse yet expensive. In the lounge there is a tea/coffee machine and a cup of soup machine that you pay for using although we found these by chance they were not pointed out to us at any time during our stay. The rooms were plain and small especially for a double room, it had single beds though it was ensuite. The important thing was that the rooms were very clean! The ensuite was supposed to have a hairdryer but it didn't work. The bath/shower was a bit odd shaped but it worked and the water was warm, the toilet was strange but if you go you'll see what i mean for yourself.

The breakfast consisited of bread,cheese,ham,cornflakes,tea,coffee and juice-not great but it did the job. The reception also contains some cards that offer discounts on attractions and restaurants,bars etc and were worth looking through. The Trianon was close to all the major museams etc. So enjoy your trip!!!!!

The hotel overall was reasonable it was clean and tidy didn't offer anything special but since it was only to sleep in it was fine.

Nice Friendly Hotel - Excellent Value For Money!!!

from ChenQ
Q & L from London (stayed from the 11th Feb 2005 - 14th Feb 2005)

We read the reviews on this hotel and was put off from the start.

But.. when we arrived at the hotel we were pleasantly suprised! The rooms are very basic, but the friendly staff, the quality of the cleaning and the quiteness of the hotel, were all things that added to a most enjoyable stay. I would certainly stay at this hotel again, and wonder what hotel the other people were staying in? This is a good 2 star hotel and certainly value for money!

Avoid this hotel

from xrayman
this hotel is very poor value for money the breakfast consisted of bread only with beverage. the decor is poor the service of the staff unhelpful . the carpet in my room i could only describe as filthy .iwrote a letter of complaint but did not receive a reply AVOID !

Great location but.....

from A TripAdvisor Member
Hotel is in a great location for many attractions either on foot or by bus or tram. Nearest bus and stram stop a minutes walk away. Hotel is in a nice area with a park accross the road. Rooms are ridiculous though. Very small, and very grubby looking. Was terrified to let anything drop on the floor!! Door is very thin which means you can hear everyone outside your room, and as the floor boards creak so loudly you might be woken up by people walking rather than talking! Breakfast was ok but would have expected a much greater choice.

Great Location but... Part II

from DeanoFromLeeds
I stayed there in April 2003, but never again. I agree with the previous reviewer - nice exterior, excellent location, BUT... inside it's still scruffy and drab, carpet is still stained, floors creak loudly.My double room was barely 5 ft wide with bunk beds. Bathroom had one towel. Climbing 2-3 ft into the half-sized bath/shower was dangerous, with only the (loose!) sink to hold onto.Buffet breakfast OK, but coffee was weak (rare in Amsterdam), and running out of popular items well before breakfast time was over. Only the weak coffee was replenished.

Great Location but...

from A TripAdvisor Member
Hotel Trianon is in a very good location, behind the Concertgebouw in the centre of Amsterdam. Most of the city's attractions are within walking distance. Staff are very helpful and breakfast is perfectly adequate. Rooms in the hotel, however, are in dire need of a facelift. Carpets are badly stained, icy-cold bathrooms with no heating, rooms are generally not so clean. No major complaints otherwise, but Trianon is certainly not the lap of luxury! Then again, you get what you pay for.
