What a perfect hotel loccted in the best area of Amsterdam. Turely great service by the staff and owner manager. They all went out of their way to service us and make our stay as comfortable as possible. We even got a complimentary breakfast though we had booked for room only.
We were with 3 couples and each of us had very different rooms as the rooms were all decorated in a different way in the hotel.
For all of us a definate must stay if you want to be in the best place in Amsterdam. We will be back soon after the this summer to enjoy Amsterdam and Atlas hotel once again.

I'm an avid traveler and an optimist so despite some of the bad reviews, I wanted to give it a chance. I have friends from all cultures and am very easy to get along with. I was in for the shock of my life at this hotel--- without exxageration----THE FRONT DESK STAFF (ESPECIALLY THE MANAGERS!!! AND "OWNERS" OF THE HOTEL) ARE SOME OF THE RUDEST PEOPLE I HAVE EVER EVER EVER MET IN MY LIFE. I was hung up on simply for calling to ask a question about the room. When I figured this was an accident and called back a second time I was told quote that "I'm an idiot, should know this" and how much they would like me "not be a guest" at "her" ("Ms. Meheta" a.k.a. "the owner of this hotel" ) anymore. I was beyond baffled , and have yet to this day been so insulted on any of my travels. I will NEVER go to this hotel---and I don't encourage anyone who has even the most basic manners and sense of respect to do so either.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Atlas. I was a bit worried because of reviews I had read and lack of interior bedroom pictures, but we decided to go for it because of the great price. It turned out wonderfully! It is situated in a beautiful, quiet spot in Amsterdam near the museum district. It is easily accessible by the #2 tram, Jacob Obrechtstraat stop. (Please note that the directions on the website leading you to the Valeriusplein stop are inaccurate, don't get off there unless you feel like doing some walking!) Our double room was on the small side, but that is to be expected in Amsterdam, and it was never uncomfortable. The room was kept very clean and we had a window with a lovely view outside and a good sized closet. The water was always hot and there was a coffeemaker included in the room (although we never used it). Also included was a hair dryer, other reviews said that you could use it at a charge, but that must have changed recently. Breakfast and wifi were not included, but I signed up for wifi access thru KPN for about €25 for a week. And as far as breakfast goes, there are plenty of cafes you can hit up for what it would cost at the hotel. We usually picked some things up at Albert Heijn and that worked out nice and cheap. I definitely recommend the hotel and would happily stay there again in the future!

No atmosphere from the minute you enter reception, My suggestion would be to play some nice music or light candles. Rooms were v old fashioned and poky. Communal toilet in hallway was similar to public toilet , needs a makeover. We were only served hot breakfast at weekend and were given cold breakfast during the week- not good enough ! Finally, we had to pay euros to store our luggage for 2 hours on day of checkout. I think this is a typical example of ripping off tourists! (even though we actually live in Amsterdam). On positive note, staff were friendly and nice quiet location.
