Alp de Veenen Hotel

We had a great stay here... A lovely quiet spacious room in good clean condition. Breakfast was basic, but included in the price so can't complain. First come first served on parking at the hotel but there free parking close by. Situated a little outside the city centre in a lovely leafy area with easy access via buses

The hotel was a quiant place in a quiet neighbourhood. Very close walking distance to several great restaurants. The ample breakfast included at the hotel was delicious and delightfully served. Rooms were very quiet and comfortable, just a tad on the small side but included all of the comforts required for a short stay.

everthing was perfect

It's a cosy, quiet, noise-free boutique hotel. Rooms are on the 1st floor. Ours was the only with terrace and it was nice. Comfy beds but lighting is very weak. Modern toilet with floor heating. A shelf to put toiletries/makeups stuff would be very handy. Breakfast is brought to the table and based on cheese, ham/salami, bread jam, etc. You are given the choice of opting for eggs. Easy to get there from the Amstelveen bus station where the bus 300 leaves you from the airport. Waking distance to caffes, restaurant and supermarkets. I would stay again!

Great small hotel, with amazing accommodations, and short walking distance to the nearest bus stop(5-6min). Breakfast was included, and there were plenty of choices to eat. We fell in love with the city. Thank you. We’ll meet again soon :)

This hotel is perfectly situated in the hart of old Amstelveen but it is being less and less attractive due to cost savings on maintenance and bad overall management! Doors that don’t close! Paint that peels off! Narrow and steep stairways! Carpets! Discussions at the desk about payment structure (credit card prepayment and payment of city taxes) and a no reservation policy for bikes etc., hard to obtain parking spot in the back yard and a noisy and “to be served” breakfast room, makes the stay more trying every time we use it! Generally speaking the overall standard and service of this place sucks! This is our third time at the premises but we hope we can find something more pleasurable in the future! The hotel.com app works well with good overview of costs and payments made so thanks for that hotels.com!

Friendly staff, tidy rooms. Free upgrade to bathtub room with kingsize. Breakfast was buffet style table service, which was new to me but very nice.

cute and quaint property. walls are pretty thin so you can hear everything as a light sleeper but otherwise no complaints. came here after a cancelled flight and i called ahead for them to wait for me at the front desk and they kindly did.

Hotel is under construction, but it,s gone be a very nice place.

ALP De Veenen is a small hotel a short walk away from the centre of Amstelveen and the bus station. It is situated in a quiet street near the old town and a wide selection of bars and restaurants. The staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is plentiful, with a choice of breads and sandwich fillings, orange juice, coffee or tea, as well as the option of eggs and/or yoghurt. My room was small but comfortable, with coffee and tea making facilities, a fridge and a large television offering many different channels. The bathroom had probably been recently refurbished and looked lovely; the shower in particular was nice, with two different shower heads. The only reason why I haven't given the hotel top marks is that the room was rather hot, and if I left the window open at night I was kept awake by the traffic noise from the nearby motorway.

It will be much better if we have more food to choose for breakfast

We enjoyed our stay and found the hotel to be comfortable, clean, and easily accessible to the city centre.

Nice breakfast. Lovely bed. Helpful staff.

Just great

Nice hotel

Wonderful! I was allowed to check in early, but thebroom wasn't ready. I asked about food. Gave me walking directions to something close. Room was ready when I returned. The rooms are named instead of numbered. That was cute. I visited the restaurant in the evening. Prices were normal for the area. The food and service was Awesome! I was attending a comedy show at the Ziggo dome. About a 30 euro taxi ride to there. 60 to Amsterdam Central station. I would definitely stay here again.

It was just ok, the room was way too small.

Good location. Nice and clean room. Good breakfast.

Issue I had with my 1-night stay: rooms on the ground floor are very noisy overnight because they're close to the room where meals are served. They shouldn't be offered to customers until serious works to insulate from noise are completed.

A tired looking hotel exterior but my room was modern, spotless and comfortable. The apple and chocolate were a treat and breakfast was generous with a variety of choices. The staff were helpful and pleasant. There was even a cute young boy who held the door open for me. The airport bus is a 10 minute walk away.

Very friendly and helpful staff.

Having fully read the description of this 3 star hotel, we were confident it meet our needs, and we were not mistaken. (Sometimes when you read critical reviews, you wonder if the person actually did their research or had excessive expectations...)The staff were very polite, attentive, and helpful; at breakfast, which was a continental version, served at your table (for COVID-compliance reasons), the waitress was very busy, but ever-smiling, and after just one day remembered that "we would like milk with our breakfast tea please". Evening meals were prepared by Roy ("Leroy"), and without exception they were first-rate! Clearly someone who enjoys what he does, if he is not too busy, Roy will happily discuss how he cooked what he has served. He's a cheerful character, and deserves recognition.The Dining room was nicely decorated and tables reasonably apart to encourage compliance with social distancing, and well illuminated too - you could actually see what you were eating! The stairs (we were on the 3rd floor) perhaps needed a bit more light, and were a bit steep, so you need to be aware of that when booking.The room we had (Karel Appel) was nice and clean, window not overlooked, compact, but perfectly adequate for a couple, with ensuite washroom separated by a sliding door. Remember you are in The Netherlands, so don't expect many English-language TV channels; but exploring the audio options for some films can give you interesting results.A lovely hotel.

Positive: Convenient location. Easy to park, close by Stadshart (shopping area) which is on walking distance. Not difficult to get to Schiphol airport. Nice personalized breakfast. Not so good: TV system doesn’t work well, often restarts and some channels are disrupted. Electricity in the room is not functioning well, in our case half of the wall outlets don’t have power. Location both positive and negative; nice to have a mall close by but for Amsterdam -which will be important for many people since there’s nothing to do in Amstelveen- you need to take a bus. They mention metro and tram but those are not close by at all and not findable so you’re stuck with the bus system. There’s a large bus station close to the hotel and mall, a ticket is rather expensive, count on €30 for 2 people as return, then a parking garage in Amsterdam center is even cheaper?!

Good place worth the money

Very good stay. Just stayed 1 night. The room was a bit small but it was modern, clean, there was enough room to be comfortable, tea and coffee making facilities in the room and a nice bathroom all finished to a good standard and had a sort of coziness to it despite the decor being functional and minimalist. The breakfast was nice and for a 'Covid Breakfast' rather than the usual buffet it was a good effort. Free parking outside the hotel and a really good location easy to find and close to the Amsterdam Forest.

I was very happy with the customer service provided by the staff. The hotel is close to a bus/train station so its perfect to travel to any part of the Netherlands.

I like the breakfast the most, there are so many choices up to pick.

Our stay at Alp de Veenen was great! They have an amazing continental breakfast every morning and the room was clean and comfortable. The staff were incredibly helpful, giving very good information about what to do and see in Amsterdam and how to get there via public transport. Would recommend for anyone wanting to explore Amsterdam who have travelled with a car as they also have free parking.
