This hotel is in Bos & Lommerplein, which is a 10/15 minute bus or tram journey from the centre of Amsterdam. I've seen other reviews saying that this is a problem, but it really isn't - there's a bus/tram stop 2 minutes from the hotel, and the service is very quick and frequent. Tickets can be bought at shops or... More

Best Western Blue Tower- good location, only a short bus/tram to the main parts of Amsterdam. Location could have been better but with much higher costs, two night stay here was very good value for money- with a 15 minute journey to Dam square from a stop right round the corner from the hotel. Not too far from the airport-... More

The property location was good, we could go and come back from the main city areas easily. The property itself was also nice and well built. But the staff they need some real training on how to deal with guests'. That left a real sour taste in the mouth in an otherwise nice stay.

Since it was our first trip to Holland we didn't really know if location is fine or not, but it was ok. Bus station is just a minutes away and taxi can get you downtown very fast. We got ourselves a room on 10th floor which was fine, I have to say, rooms are very clean, staff is nice, and... More

My partner and I recently stayed at the Best Western Blue Tower Hotel (19/04/13-22/04/13) which was an undesirable place to say the least. Our room was on the 11th floor which meant that we had to take the lift to the 10th floor and carry our suitcases up a very steep flight of stairs. Firstly, the lifts were quite slow... More
