The staff was very friendly, and my kids had a blast (7 and 9yrs). Despite being right across from Centraal Station, my room was very quiet. I would stay there again.

The only reason you would want to book this hotel is the location. The hotel is opposite the Main train station in the centre of Amsterdam and a 2 minute walk from the Red Light district, bars, restaurants and museums. The actual booking was not cheap and we were also told we had to pay a city tax upon arrival.... More

At the time of my reservation via booking.com the owner took from my credit card the full amount of reservation. When we arrive they didn’t give us a double room but a twin room, saying that an other room was not available. The room was small with cheap furniture and no fridge. The bathroom (see photo) was modest with a... More

This hotel is in a good location just opposite the station. I made a booking for my son and his girlfriend using an agency but they made a mistake and made the same booking twice. To his credit the Assistant Manager noticed the mistake and emailed me immediately. The hotel is fine, ignore the negative comments. Rooms and breakfast good... More

A-train hotel in Amsterdam has an excellent location just opposite the central train station. Besides the vicinity of the railway station which is quite practical if you take a train from the airport or want to travel away from Amsterdam, there are main tram stops, canal cruises start from here or there are quite a lot of tourist offices nearby.You...

The hotel theme is the TRAIN. You can see the railway tracks as you are at the lobby while checking in. There is also the luggages which bring back memories of the 50's or 60's. My dad used that type before. There is nice breakfast & friendly staff too. It was such a coincidence that I stayed at the same... More

Stayed in the A Train hotel while visiting Amsterdam with my daughter. The hotel is conveniently situated opposite the main railway station. The hotel has a railway theme - including tracks in the flooring to the dining room. The dining room is styled as a railway buffet car and there was a good choice at breakfast. Our room was clean...

We stayed at the A-Train for 1 night. We arrived at about 12.30pm and appreciated our room being ready for early checkin. The room and bedroom were clean enough. Although not sure about the cleaners attention to detail as there was food leftover in the fridge. The staff were friendly and the hotel was well located, perfect for 1 night... More
