Would stay here again, 15 minute stroll into the centre and a very peaceful 2 nights sleep. The room was very small but we were out all day on both days of our stay so it was only to sleep and shower in. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly and the tram (number 9) stops outside, a great... More

This hotel at a first glance, looked fine. The room had a 45 degrees tilted wall near the bed. I thought it was cool because when I layed in the bed I could see the sky through the window located on this wall. But then I found this to be a major issue as I came to hit my head... More

What to say, after several years of living in Amsterdam, in private apartments, and student dorms, finally, I had a chance to sleep in a hotel. Once when in Amsterdam, the idea of sitting in your room is never a good idea, therefore, the idea is to find suitably located, and affordable basic hotel. This is Hotel Alfa Plantage. Expect...

After arriving in Amsterdam on Saturday morning and literally searching for a free room for two and a half hours my boyfriend and I had the choice of a room in The Plant or a room in The Alfa (both owned and run by the same couple). The Plant smelled so bad I didn't want to breathe. It was like... More

Stayed at the hotel for 3 nights with 3 friends in twin bedded rooms. The rooms were fairly basic but very clean with good size bathrooms and our rooms were definately a decent size. Doesn't offer breakfast but we didn't find this a problem as there is a super cafe directly opposite. For us the location couldn't have been better.... More

Though it is a little bit far from the Centraal Station, there is a... More

Be Prepared for a Miniature Room if you get #15. Have to say that first. My girlfriend and I stayed for two nights to the tune of 158 euros total through booking.com. I diligently went over the reviews on this site and left thinking it would be an average room at best. IT IS NOT WORTH IT. YOU CAN DO... More

Very friendly and helpful staff Quiet but has a bar, kebab shop, chinese , cash point and tram stop all virtually on the doorstep. I thought it was very good room 41 is quirky but we had the best sleeps ever More

The hotel was ok, 15 minutes away from the Dam, very nice staff, tram station right there and even had an elevator (quite a small one, but it was perfect for 2-3 persons). I didn't like that we stayed there for 3 nights and the room was not cleaned at all, no changed sheets, no vacuum. More
