Hotel Piet Hein - Amsterdam, Netherlands 

"Excellent Hotel - Ideal Location"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
My wife and I stayed at this hotel to celebrate her birthday last weekend.On arrival we were greated by a helpful man on reception who immediately wished my wife a happy birthday (we had mentioned this on booking). The room we were given was at the rear of the hotel and had a balcony.It was a large room with what appeared to be a newly fitted bathroom suite which had a very nice shower ! The hotel staff had also left a complimentary bottle of wine and card to wish my wife a happy birthday - what a nice touch and I doubt that many other hotels would have done that.There is also a nice relaxing bar area. We felt the breakfast (cereals, fresh fruit, cheese, ham, rolls, eggs,jam and cofee, tea & juices) was very good especially when the deal we had included the breakfast for less than the cost of many 'accommodation only' deals we had looked at.The breakfast room was nice and also appeared to have been recently refurbished.The hotel itself is situated in a nice location - a quiet street right alongside Vondelpark (though this is currently being relandscapped where the hotel is situated). To get to the hotel you need get tram 2 or 5 from centraal station and get off at the Van Gough museum or the stop just before (I cant remember the name of this one though). The Leidesplein is only a 5/10 minute walkaway where there are plenty of bars and restaurants.Pretty much everywhere in Amsterdam is walkable if you are reasonably fit and I feel sure that if you stay at this hotel you will enjoy your stay.

Overall quality is quite good, although size of the room I stayed in was disappointing. In my previous visit, I was given a much bigger double room at the same rate with a bed that makes one feel like in heaven. This time even the bed was mediocre, no toiletries in the bathroom and no minibar in the room, which are definite minuses in my otherwise very positive opinion for Piet Hein.

Piet Hein hotel is a nice, modern hotel in a quiet area across from Vondel park and close to the museums. The location is excellent, it didn't take very long to get there on the tram from Central station, and it wasn't far up to Liedesplein to all the restaurants etc. I booked a single room (to save costs) and it was small, but it was well laid out so it didn't feel too bad. My room overlooked the garden/courtyard at the back of the hotel. The furnishings & decor was clean / modern. Breakfast was good, if you can, wait for the croissants and rolls, fresh & warm from the oven. (Not too many open cafes nearby early in the morning, so you may as well eat in the hotel) There are a few internet PC's in the lobby, never a problem if you wanted to check your emails

Bom hotel. Limpo, novo (reformado recentemente) e bastante confortável. O vaso sanitário é um pouco alto. Bom atendimento. Internet gratuita no saguão. Excelente localização. Excelente vizinhança. Fácil acesso da Estação Central pelos tramways 2 e 5. Fiquei no último andar, não sei se nos demais o hotel é barulhento.
