Fodor's Expert Review DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station

Oosterdoksstraat 4, Amsterdam, North Holland, 1011DK, Netherlands

The welcoming staff, well-equipped contemporary rooms, and a great location on the water, right next to Centraal Station, with wonderful city views all outweigh this shiny tower's unwelcoming exterior. Guest rooms have all the amenities you expect from a big international chain: queen-size beds, a minibar, a desk with ergonomic chair, and an Apple iMac TV/PC. Suites offer more space plus water views. The 11th-floor SkyLounge, with an expansive terrace, is the place to sip cocktails; in bad weather, the skyline view from inside still entices.

  • lovely views
  • helpful staff
