Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Holiday Inn - The Niu, Fender Amsterdam, is often praised for its spacious and clean rooms, some offering lovely marina views from higher floors. Guests appreciate the convenient Bluetooth speakers in the rooms and easy access to Amsterdam Central via the number 22 GVB bus, followed by a short walk to the hotel. The on-site parking is a definite plus for drivers, and while some find the location a little outside the city center, the nearby Cafe Chantilly, within a 10-minute walk, offers breakfasts that are a highlight for many.

WOW! My Stay Was Amazing

clean roomavailable fridgecomfortable bedbig bathroom
I must say, the room was super clean and I even find a fridge inside. A safe also was available, which I did use! The beds seemed like sleeping on clouds, so comfortable. The big bathroom was amazing with tea and coffee available.
Just one minor thing, the bus stop felt a little far for me. I would have love that to be closer to the hotel.

The staff was helpful and cute at check-in. i received a room upgrade because of my ihg membership. This let me check in early and check out late. a staff member gave very helpful directions to the bus stop. the room was modern and clean.
The room lacked tea or coffee making facilities. This was an inconvenience. there was no complimentary bottled water in the room either. i found this surprising for the price.

The room was spacious, offering comfortable beds for a restful night. thick walls also ensured i didn't hear any disturbances from neighboring rooms or outside. i found the location to be quite safe. I felt secure walking around at night.
some staff did not show much politeness. during breakfast, a staff member spoke loudly to me for sitting at a table. she had not cleared away yet.

The room faced the harbor, and the view of the boats was quite charming. The hotel provided ample parking in the basement for a reasonable fee. Staff members were friendly , and their smiles were always welcome.
I noticed the absence of tea or coffee making facilities directly in the room.
