Hotel Ibis Amsterdam City Stopera - Amsterdam, Netherlands     

top hotel not single a complaint staff very professional and rooms really nice and very clean food at breakfast time is very nice also

For those familiar with the Ibis chain of hotels I shouldn't have to explain that these are 3 star family style hotels that are based on a pretty basic formula. Our room was bigger than average and faced onto a canal that runs at the back of the hotel. It was peaceful and the view was very pleasant. We had chosen this hotel for its central location and were able to walk to all the major sights in the city which is a great advantage. Although the hotel doesn't have a garage they were able to organise parking close by at a reasonable daily rate (by Amsterdam standards!). Breakfast was the usual buffet arrangement but did also include a selection of hot dishes. We had dinner in the hotel on the first night and the food was simple and sensibly priced. Essentially, this is a well run, no frills establishment with very friendly staff that is extremely well located.
