I had a lovely stay at this boutique hotel, thanks to the stunning decor and friendly staff who made me feel welcome. The proximity to the museum district and Christmas markets was a real plus. However, the breakfast pricing felt a bit steep and could use some more variety. While the room was gorgeous and clean, the size was a bit limiting for mobility.

This hotel boasts a charming atmosphere and is nestled in a quiet, elegant neighborhood, making it an appealing choice for a getaway. The breakfast spread is delightful, and the service has a personal touch. However, the rooms fell short of expectations with poor quality bedding, and the overall experience felt more like a three-star offering than four. Additionally, the cost of breakfast was steep given the limited options.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were quite small and did not meet the standards I expected for a four-star hotel. The pillows were uncomfortable, and the mattress felt thin. There were also issues such as poor drainage in the sink.

Service

7.0

The service was friendly and attentive, particularly highlighting one staff member, Sam, who made our breakfast experience enjoyable. However, it felt lacking for the price we paid, especially since breakfast wasn't included.

The hotel is situated in a lovely residential area with easy tram access to the city. It’s about a 20-minute walk to Vondelpark, which is quite pleasant.

Dining

6.0

Breakfast was a highlight with a charming setting and good quality offerings, but the €19.90 price felt excessive considering the limited variety.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel features a charming breakfast room with a garden view, which enhances the dining experience. However, there seemed to be little else in terms of facilities, especially with no lunch or dinner options available due to renovations.

I had a pleasant stay at Apollofirst Hotel, nestled in a quiet yet vibrant area of Amsterdam. The rooms were stylish but a bit small, especially the double room I booked for my parents, which they found cramped. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff was generally helpful, although my check-in experience left something to be desired. Overall, it’s a charming place but I would recommend it mainly for solo travelers or couples who don’t mind smaller rooms.

Rooms

The hotel has a lovely, artsy vibe and staff that go above and beyond, especially Sam who was a standout. However, the breakfast pricing felt excessive given the standard offerings, and the room quality could use some updates. Overall, it was a fair experience, but the price compared to the amenities left a bit to be desired.

Rooms

The room had beautiful black and gold décor, but the furniture was showing signs of wear, and the double bed was two singles pushed together, which was not ideal.

My stay at this boutique hotel was filled with charm and character, though the room amenities left something to be desired. The location, away from the tourist crowds, was a definite plus with easy access to local dining spots. I truly enjoyed the beautiful, elegant decor throughout the hotel, but the room’s condition and limited amenities were disappointing for a 4-star establishment.
