Guest Reviews
- Budi-S-J (10/5): Great Stay with the Perfect Balance of Relaxation and Fun during ADE. - Although the hotel is not located in the center of Amsterdam, during ADE we enjoyed the perfect balance between rest and partying thanks to the hotel’s relaxing atmosphere and peaceful location. Pros: We stayed at this hotel twice this year, and both times were a great experience. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the rooms are comfortable, and the location is excellent. Public transportation is just a short walk from the hotel, and the surrounding area feels safe, quiet and modern. Our room had a balcony with beautiful views, which was a nice touch. The hotel has its own restaurant, and there are also plenty of great dining options nearby. A supermarket is conveniently located about a five-minute walk away. Cons: Unfortunately, the room does not have a mini-fridge, which would be a great addition. One evening, I asked the receptionist if it was possible to heat some food in a microwave, but unfortunately, this facility was not available. Parking spaces in the parking garage are limited. Overall, the hotel is great, and we’re looking forward to our next stay.
- 559liviah (6/5): great seaview - I’ve stayed at this hotel around eight times, and overall, it offers a pleasant experience, mainly due to its beautiful location with a stunning sea view. The rooms are generally clean, although I’ve occasionally encountered small issues such as an empty tissue box or a missing TV remote control. When I called the reception about this, the gentleman on duty mentioned he couldn’t bring it up since he was alone, so I had to go down to collect it myself — not ideal for a hotel of this standard. Breakfast offers a great variety of choices, which I really appreciate. However, the serving staff could be more attentive — during one visit, we sat for over an hour, and no one came to clear the used dishes, even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. The reception staff vary in professionalism. Sukeina stands out as truly amazing — always smiling, welcoming me back, and providing efficient, friendly service that makes check-in a pleasure. She really enhances the guest experience. On the other hand, there is another receptionist (I believe from Eastern Europe) whose attitude is quite the opposite — she came across as rude and unhelpful. Some improvement in customer service skills would make a big difference. Despite a few service inconsistencies, the hotel’s great location and some standout staff like Sukeina keep me coming back. With a bit more focus on staff training and attentiveness, this hotel could easily be an excellent place to stay
- chermoir02 (10/5): Excellent hotel perfect for our wee break - Very modern industrial feel to the hotel. Room was a wee bit chilly later on. Breakfast excellent. Staff lovely. Quite far from city centre but very easy to get to by tram, bus or train.
- John (10/5): - Good job!
- Ernest (6/5): - Just ok - small below average rooms
- ELIZABETH (10/5): - The breakfast options were amazing.
- GlennR876 (8/5): Comfortable, Clean Hotel. Good Location, Lovely Staff. A few insignificant negatives. - Nice hotel, Great location, Lovely Staff, Minor Negative Points. Ideal location for us. Clean comfortable hotel. Efficient, friendly and professional staff. Nice restaurant and sky bar. Overall, a pretty decent hotel for the price. We arrived at the acceptable check-in time of 15:00 to be told the room was not ready - disappointing. We came back a couple of hours later. We didn't have breakfast. Even for Amsterdam 19.5 euros per person for a hotel breakfast is a bit steep. We had breakfast at my daughters who lives a 10 minute walk away, Had it have been half the price we would have had breakfast every day at the hotel (which, probably, would have worked out well for the hotel as, personally, I can only cope with a couple of coffees in the morning, which help me to feel like a human being!!) Very fiddly and confusing light controls in the room. After a 3rd stay, we have still not fully mastered it. We will be back and will persevere! The translucent bathroom door is annoying - lets in light to sleeping area, which turns off after 10-15 mins. (OK, I know, - new world problems!) Overall, nice enough hotel and good value>
- Martin (10/5): Fantastic stay - Fantastic hotel with an easy journey into the city centre. Great breakfast selection and room was a good size with a nice bathroom.
- Y176QXamberw (8/5): Great stay with just a few things to note - Stayed at Four Elements over pride weekend for my husband’s 30th. First impressions are really great, it’s a clean hotel and really modern - exactly what I was looking for! Just a few things to note. We found the beds to be quite hard- but we like mattresses on the softer side, so if you prefer the opposite then you’ll love these! There’s also some roadworks happening right outside the hotel, which means we had to get two trams and a bus to get to and from the hotel into the city centre. Just double check that before your stay, thankfully Amsterdam’s public transport is really reliable. Overall though it’s been a great stay :)
- william (10/5): - Very nice. Bed comfortable, food excellent.
- 745elicias (6/5): Weekend Away for my Partners Birthday - We visited this hotel on the 12th of August for a 2 night stay. Although the hotel was very clean, the service was quite disappointing. It was extremely hot the time we were there it was over 26 degrees and it stated on our room information we could have a cool box to cool down our drinks in the room. Not to mention that the AC is extremely poor and unfortunately it is very hard to sleep in the early conditions. We requested a cool box and unfortunately never received this even though we were told it would be with us asap. Upon then asking where it is, we were advised they had “none left”. In addition to this, I also brought a celebration package for my partner which I paid for prior to my stay. When I arrived at the hotel and had to pay for the tax, they charged me for the celebration package again INFRONT of my partner. I had to pay this because had I have questioned them, my partner would have known about his surprise. I gave my details to the front desk on the 14th of July. I was advised that my payment would be returned within a couple of days. It is now the 1st of August and this payment is still yet to be received. I have chased this several times and they keep advising me that it’ll be with me soon or in the next few days and weeks later I still do not receive it. Really disappointed in my experience, would probably avoid.
- Lisa (10/5): - It was near a little beach. Transportation options were good.
- Culture583955 (4/5): Very poor service - In general the hotel looks good, rooms are clean and beds comfortable. However, the service was really really poor from check in to check out. At the arrival the receptionist was not welcoming at all. No smile, no kind words. Quite agressive. She did not give us any information. We had to ask for everything ourselves. We asked for parking and the only answer was that it was full. We asked for breakfast and she said: 'I thought you knew what you booked'. Very unpleasant. The breakfast the day after was a mess. One coffee machine did not work so a long line for the other. No help from the staff. Don't look for decaf coffee. The say it's not included in the 19,50 per person. Bacon was finished and we had to wait for a long time to have it refilled. And then finished again before we could take it. This was the first and last time for us in this hotel. They pretend to be fancy and green but they just lack service. (By the way, you have collect 'room service' at the reception...)
- Ali (8/5): - The hotel and staff are very nice. My only issue is with the cleanliness of the room.
- Paul (6/5): - Location and views over the lake.
- Kevin (10/5): Boutique Hotel with Friendly Staff - The hotel was a fun departure from the typical Marriotts, etc. The staff is really friendly and helpful. Our room had great views of the water and everything was clean and orderly. The breakfast was a normal, tasty European style breakfast and the Sky Club had good drinks. The Mariner Club is a one minute walk for quality Mediterranean food. Overall we really enjoyed staying here.
- Brandon (10/5): - Clean room and staff was friendly
- MilesM237 (8/5): Wonderful Amsterdam hotel! - This is a lovely hotel......do not be put off by the location it is served by Amsterdam's brilliant public transport system and is easy to access the city centre and Schipol airport. The staff are helpful and friendly and we were welcomed with a free drink from the bar which is always welcome. The rooms are modern with a beautiful view of the lake (room 705). The Skybar offers great cocktails and a wonderful view. We only had the breakfast on the last day but it offered a great choice of hot and cold dishes. We only had some minor issues.....room service did not replace our coffee capsules and we had to ask at reception, the cups are espresso size and not suitable for a large coffee/tea....however, reception can easily rectify this. There are some great restaurants and bars nearby and a good supermarket. Highly recommended!!
- Serena (10/5): Just a lovely time - First, the staff. Very friendly, polite and helpful. Both at front desk and restaurant (breakfast). I asked for my room NOT to be cleaned daily. The cleaner I talked to in the hall still was concerned that I had enough towels etc. I was impressed with her positive and friendly attitude.
- Sarah (10/5): - I always stay here when visiting Amsterdam
- Sarah (10/5): - Great hotel, lovely views, good amenities & transport links. Able to hire bike & lots of accessible cycle routes. The sky bar in the hotel, is an added bonus without being hugely expensive!
- davideX537KD (10/5): Excellent hotel and highly recommended - Excellent hotel with great and friendly staff. Hotel room was not large but very modern and comfortable. Shower was amazing with a choice of rain shower or hand held. Very nice in room amenities and a great view of the Marina. Breakfast was by far the best we have experienced in Europe with so much to choose from and all fresh and very tasty. Would most definitely stay here again if in Amsterdam.
- Sophie (10/5): - All round amazing stay. Lovely clean rooms and beautiful views of the water and boats. Tram stop near by which takes you into the centre.
- Monifa (10/5): - Nice hotel outside the usual hustle and bustle of Amsterdam however still has good transport links
- raficke2016 (10/5): Nice Stay - Stayed for three nights in a comfort double room. Hotel is in a nice location by a marina and the water. There’s a few restaurants, bars and shops around the marina. Easy access to city centre via the tram which is about a 10mins walk from hotel and takes about 20mins to get to Amsterdam Central station and the trams ran about every 10mins. The tram stop is just outside the main station on its own away from all the other trams but easy to find with the signs in the station. Room was quite spacious with a coffee machine, and was modern. Nice views on one side of the river too. Bathroom again was quite spacious with a huge rainfall shower. Worth noting that the bathroom door is slightly opaque so you can see the shadow of someone using the loo if you are in the bed! Huge TV with channels from around Europe, free WIFI which was good and pizza is available for room service. The bar on the 10th floor has amazing views although not much atmosphere as it was only us and one other couple in there, the staff kept wandering around as they had no one to serve. I know they a DJ on Friday and Saturday night so probably busier then. Restaurant was nice too with quite a good choice of food and drinks. Huge terrace area of the restaurant too. Breakfast didn’t have that much choice but had everything you’d expect. Breakfast was from 7-11 everyday which for someone who wakes up later was really good. Lobby has a small seating/work area and free cups of water there too. All the staff were friendly. Nice stay!
- Cleota (8/5): - Ecellent front reception service. Very attentive to guest requests.
- Cleota (10/5): - Temp capped. It was cold in room but they did offer portable heater and that worked well
- NorthStar01398511784 (8/5): Nice hotel but please read the details - We stayed here for 2 nights. The hotel is in a quiet location and not too far from the centre of Amsterdam. It is about 20 minutes by tram 26 but you have to walk from the hotel to the tram station in about 10 minutes. The breakfast is not very varied 19.5 euros per person. The room has all the amenities you need: shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, hairdryer and a bottle of water (I really like this because most European hotels don't provide this but I can't really drink tap water), coffee maker, kettle, tea and coffee and a safe. I liked the design and decoration of the room. The bed was soft and they gave me 6 pillows. I would like to give 5 stars for that but unfortunately we found some potato chip in the room on the bed from the first day we checked in. The next day we asked for the room to be cleaned when we came back. The bed and bathroom were well made but the french fries were still there. I wanted to inform the staff but they seemed busy the whole time because on the first day when we arrived there were 2 receptionists talking and not paying attention to us even though we tried to say hello and we started to say hello louder so they started to pay attention to us. I tried to ignore this because my European boyfriend warned me from the beginning that we shouldn't expect good service in Europe. But as a former receptionist at a 4-star hotel in Bangkok, Thailand, it's a bit of a shock to me, so I can only hope that the potato chips in room 901 are gone before the next guest checks in.
- Faycal (10/5): - Great stay
- Stephen (4/5): So near and yet so far - The idea behind the hotel is good, an eco friendly hotel in a new development only 20 minutes from the centre of Amsterdam. However, there are so many minor niggles, plus one or two more serious problems. Whether it's the fact they don't provide slippers yet the floors are wooden and dirty, the fact there are only two lifts and one was broken for most of our stay or the touch panel controlled shower that doesn't respond to wet hands, they are all things that anyone who runs a hotel should know to avoid or mitigate. The major problem though is the air conditioning. It's a great idea in principle, however it feels like it was implemented by someone fresh out of college with no real world experience of how to make things work for people. The biggest problem was you couldn't turn it off! Press the off button and the fan sounds like a jet engine spooling up. Have it on auto and there are only two fan settings, one too weak to maintain a temperature it seems to target precisely (rather than running to a tolerance band) and the other loud enough to wake you up when it kicks in. This, plus the far too soft pillows that hotels seem to love left us short of sleep and too tired to properly enjoy our time there. Not helped by the private function (unannounced) in the bar above our room which carried on until after midnight with loud music thumping out. If they fixed these fairly minor issues it would be a great place to stay, but until then... avoid.
- hakano0620 (8/5): Nice place to stay - This is a good hotel to stay. As to compare with the hotels at the city center of Amsterdam this is a new building with good facilites. Although out of the city center, transportation to and back between the hotel and the Central Station with tram is about 20 minutes one way using the tram stop near the hotel. The breakfast included in the fare is very satisfying. Lunch and dinner is served also and include delicious dishes. There are also places walking distance around the hotel to wine and dine. At the same direction with the tram stop there is a good supermarket for many kinds of food and drinks when needed.
- norwichgirl30 (8/5): Second stay - This hotel is off the beaten track on the island of 'Ijburg". It's a 15 minute tram ride from Amsterdam Central station. Although not in the city, public transport takes you there quickly and the advantage of having a quiet night's sleep is great. The hotel is modern. Rooms not overly big, but nicely decorated and some of them look out over the harbour or the (large) lake. Beds are comfortable, it's just a shame the bed sheets are too short (and this time with holes in them as well). Because the windows are not very large, the room can be a bit dark. Bathroom has rain shower and normal shower, wash basin and toilet. Breakfast is buffet style with loads of choices. Cereals, eggs, fruit, bread, rolls, yoghurt, cakes, coffees and tea. Even with the few small niggles we had during this second vist, we would certainly stay again. Getting a good night's sleep is worth the extra travel time.
- miguel (10/5): - Nice property
- Verified traveler (4/5): Very Disappointing - Made a booking for a get away to celebrate with my wife and little baby. Firstly, we were not advised that there was refurbishment work taking place in the lobby, no mention on their website or booking platforms. This was a surprise on arrival. Secondly, we raised on a number of occasions that the telephone was not working and only half the shower head was working, each day we were advised an engineer will go in to fix and each day nothing was done, simply lies. We could not order an iron by telephone and had to visit reception, wasting our time. This was wasted further when it took ages to get an iron! Thirdly, we had taken our baby's own towel due to sensitive skin, this was taken by housekeeping and when this was raised with management, they said housekeeping could not find it! It was very disappointing especially when it was a printed towel so easily identifiable. Lastly, when checking out we managed to raise the queries with the manager who advised the phones were down due to cabling issues caused by the refurbishment work, it took 50 minutes to be offered an EUR 28 (parking fee for 1 day) refund and have a printed confirmation, the printer had issues and I was waiting 20 minutes just for a print out. It was a very disappointing stay and the refund was acknowledged so we could buy ourself another baby towel, ignoring the failures of all the other issues. Would not recommend!
- Q5820WOjog (10/5): Brilliant stay - I had a wonderful two night stay in this hotel. The bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. Extremely clean, with very helpful, and pleasant staff. Only ‘complaint’ was no breakfast teabags, nor milk in the room. I would highly recommend this hotel.
- Lord (10/5): - Great property and I would stay again, however Very quite area and when they had a private event for the rooftop party it was too loud.
- Oko (6/5): - Check in was the worst experience in 20 years! Everything else was great but who ever was working Friday Feb 28 2025 in the evening saw this as her day to make power plays!
- Fatima (8/5): - I was very happy 😊
- Nola993 (2/5): Very bad experience - It was one of my worst experiences. I stayed in this hotel for three nights and asked more than ten times for my room to be cleaned, but they didn’t care at all. They just kept saying “sorry.” It was very disappointing, Unfortunately, the staff’s behavior was not friendly at all.
- Sean (10/5): - Lovely hotel highly suggest a visit if in the area
- justinedU2177HQ (6/5): Beware of extra charges - The stay over all was nice. It is a newer hotel, so there are kinks that need to be worked out. However we were soured on the last morning of our stay. For background we booked and paid for a bed and breakfast stay for 3 adults (36 years, 38, 16) and 1 child (12). We had breakfast as a family on the first morning without issue. On the last morning we were stopped and told we had only paid for 3 breakfasts. I told them that I paid for bed and breakfast, but apparently 12 is considered a child charge and was not included on the reservation. It’s written no where on the website. We paid for the meals our 12 year old ate at checkout but we’re not given the age parameters the child rates. Is it 12 to 16 that pay child prices? Is it employee to employee that the policy is made? For the lack of information but a readiness to exploit that manufactured blind spot, I will not be coming back to four elements in future stays.
- Tonya (8/5): - It's a lovely place but an expensive Uber to get anywhere. It was too cold to bike but that would be a great option for others to utilize.
- Fahad (10/5): - The best boutique hotel in the best area of Amsterdam - Ijburg!
- Jason (10/5): - Very nice hotel
- Teri (8/5): Great stay - Very nice all around. Easy to get to from public transport. Only thing I would change is having a mini fridge in the room.
- Laura (10/5): - I love the room size , but don’t like the glass door on the bathroom. Also the shower needs information on how to operate it to get warm water.
- Ivan (10/5): - This was a return stay @4Elements. Everything was good, including the Autumnal weather. Our only minor gripe was the lack of milk for the coffees or teas in the room. When asked for some we were given powdered cream! Even longlife pots would have been better! But we'll still return Ijberg is a lovely district of Amsterdam.
- samwB1783JN (6/5): Design over functionality - The hotel is located conveniently for the tram. It is very "design" oriented, but to the detriment of function. The shower tray is downright dangerous, so slippery. Not enough light in general. Not enough coffee, and stupidly small water glasses. Sink has no plug, and tap is too near sink to use cold tap properly. Friendly staff, but not many Dutch speakers. No obvious information in room about facilities etc.
- David (10/5): - Fantastic hotel in the beautiful area of IJburg. Staff are friendly and helpful. Beautiful hotel and clean. Restaurant has great food and service. Sky Bar has fantastic drinks and views! Would not hesitate to stay there again.
- Sy (10/5): - Clean and friendly staff
- Carrie (10/5): - Great hotel with good water views and close to local restaurants and grocery store. About a 7 min walk from the tram and 26 min tram ride to central station but the price was good and hotel was pretty fancy for what we paid. Was not a big fan of the frosted glass barn style bathroom door.
- Ernest Stanley (10/5): - Good condition
- Lisa (10/5): Well worth the tram journey to stay here - We arrived earlier than check in snd our room wasn’t ready. We had some drinks outside over looking the beautiful marina. At 3 the room still wasn’t ready but the matter was dealt with really well. We got an apology and a voucher for 4 free drinks from the Skylight Bar. Once we got into the room it wAs worth the wait! The view was spectacular! Would definitely recommend.
- carolynpV277ET (8/5): Lovely stay - Stayed here for four nights. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. There was a safe, coffee machine, and complimentary bottled water. No kettle, mini-fridge, slippers/bathrobe, or toiletry kit. I had a bit of trouble with the shower as it was one of those high-tech shower panels. Except that at one point the water shut off automatically in the middle of my shower and wouldn’t turn on for the next few minutes. There are also bugs in the summer as the hotel is near the water, but none in the room as long as you don’t open the window. The hotel has a restaurant and rooftop bar. The risotto at the restaurant was delicious. We didn’t go to the rooftop bar but it has views of the nearby beach/waterfront. Location: The hotel is located in a peaceful residential area which felt safe even at night. There is a tram station (Lumierestraat station) about a 10 min walk away from the hotel. The tram line goes directly to Centraal Station in about 15 mins. Overall, had an enjoyable stay and felt that the hotel was reasonably priced.
- Vijay (10/5): - I enjoyed my stay
- Harrison Edward (10/5): - Lovely hotel. Really nice rooms and bathroom. The building and location was great. Was a 15min tram from central station and only a 10min walk to the hotel after that. Your right next to the Marina, and the view from our room was lovely. Will be staying at this hotel again.
- Jonathan Louis (4/5): - There was not any upgrade for us and also there was no VIP access either. The air conditioning was non existent in this hotel. While it was not extremely hot outside the room would hold in the heat and stuffiness and it would not cool off at night. We opened the window at night but it’s on opened about 4 inches so there was very little relief in the room,
- Kenneth (8/5): - Overall, not a bad place to stay.
- Fernando (4/5): Not as nice as it looks - So so, the place looks nice from outside but it is severely understaffed. Also, there are too many drunk tourists and the rooms are not soundproof. The ad said the rooms are soundproof, but they are not. Avoid at all costs to have a room next to the elevator if you want to sleep at night.
- Ehiosa Charles (10/5): - Excellent hotel
- H48IZlouisem (10/5): Perfect stay for my 40th Birthday - It took me 2 weeks to settle on a hotel for our trip away to Amsterdam. I finally decided on the Four Elements hotel and I am so glad that we did. First class from start to finish and I honestly couldn't have asked for more other than getting to stay for another night or two. We travelled for my 40th birthday and were greeted by the most pleasant of staff - Pierre who not only gave us an upgrade for my birthday but also surprised me with a birthday dessert with a candle on the terrace the next morning (my actual birthday). Such a wonderful kind thought and it was greatly appreciated. Pierre was so helpful and informative and he made us feel welcome from the onset. On check out , again we were greeted by another absolute gentleman (we are so sorry we forgot your name, we think it was Jorge (hor-hay), he saw that it was raining and pulled out all the stops to price & book another form of transport other than to walk 8-10mins in the rain to the tram stop. It only cost €28 from the hotel to Schipol airport and he even organised two coffees for us while we waited on our lift to come. I will bullet point all the reasons that made our stay so perfect below to make it easier reading. Pros Staff were fantastic Beds were very comfortable Rooms were very quiet Terrace was so peaceful with beautiful views of the harbour Also beautiful views of the sea & harbour from the hotel itself Coffee was top class Signature cocktails were absolutely amazing Sky bar view was stunning, unfortunately the outside area of the skybar was closed for refurbishment which was disappointing but still, beautiful views from inside the bar Only 8-10min walk to the tram stop through a very safe and quiet area (trams seem to go every 7mins or so) - then a 15-20mins tram ride to Central station (about €2.56 each way if using your bank card) We didn't eat in the hotel so can't comment on the food I do not even want to put down anything negative as it really was a perfect stay but I know reviews need to objective; Cons If you want all your trip to Amsterdam to be spent in the city, then maybe you will find this hotel a little slightly further out than preferred. Not for us though, as we wanted to spend the day in the city and the evening/night back at a nice quiet hotel and this was the perfect balance. Aircon - there was aircon in the room, just maybe not as cold as we would have liked but as the beds were comfortable then this didn't stop us sleeping Skybar - we did initially book this hotel as the images of sitting outside the skybar looked amazing but unfortunately this area was closed which was a shame but still, the glass of french wine and cocktails that we got were top class (yes, you might find the cocktails a little pricey but trust me they are worth it). As for the location of the hotel; There is a beach and walking path right beside the hotel A supermarket about 300m up from the hotel And last but definitely not least - a lovely wee bar & outside eatery right across from the hotel (there are actually a few), just a few minutes walk - we actually ended up eating one of our evening meals sitting outside on one these restaurants terrace which was right at the harbour side. Food and drinks were top class specially the Asian food in Koh. Thank you to all at the Four Elements Hotel, we had the best stay and we will definitely be back again. Louise
- David (8/5): Eco, but not so clean. - So we stayed here as near a wedding venue. A/C never got cool, set to 18 but never got below 21. Very eco but not good. Rug next to bed looked very dirty, could in theory be design but was not going to touch to find out. Bathroom good but some flaws, bedroom nice, but an hour to get to most places in Amsterdam and previous places have only been 30 minutes away. In short we would not stay again, but it was OK
- Evan (10/5): - Fantastic stay very easy to get to Amsterdam Central very quiet! And a grocery store right down the street.
- Maddie (10/5): - Wonderful place, super friendly and welcoming staff!
- Darryl (10/5): - Amazing rooftop bar
- karen (10/5): - Overall great experience
- Ruth (10/5): - Very friendly staff. Very nice restaurant with indoor and outdoor options. Let us put our bicycles into safe underground parking
- Ching-Ching (10/5): - Earthy, eco friendly hotel. Hearty and healthy breakfast buffet is the best. Logistically it is a bit out of the way from the central area, so it’s important to plan your logistics, if you have a large heavy luggage or come back to the hotel later in the evening when you travel by Tram #26. It’s quite a bit of walk from the tram stop to the hotel and it’s quite dark to walk in the late evening. But other than that we are happy with our stay.
- Ching-Ching (10/5): - Great. The only thing is that it’s out of the way from the city center.
- Manjit (10/5): - Fantastic
- Rafael (6/5): - The shower head was full of mold in my room and we asked them to clean it and nothing was done about it. Also the bathrooms doors are see through in a sense but also you can clearly see someone on the toilet through the cracks in the door. Not as private as one would assume.
- Birgit (6/5): - The room is ok but not special! View very nice but so sorry you cant open the curtains. Roof top party is noisy. What also includes that we cant visit the rooftop bar! Food at restaurant is not fresh. Midgets at the terrace! It is not looked after with love! Nice place to stay when you want to visit Amsterdam! Good facilities to go to the centre.
- kevin (10/5): - Very nice property in nice marina canal area, a little away from Amsterdam old town, tram 26 a block away and goes right to central station
- Carol (6/5): Not sure I would stay there again - The stay was fine, the room was ok but a bit small for two friends. The bathroom light stayed on for a long time after the door was closed so kept me awake sometimes. No room service and confusion about the cup supply. I booked because we wanted to spend time in the roof top bar but couldn’t for one of the two nights. The extra tourist tax was high, the other hotel we stayed in was cheaper, this was not explained at the time of booking.the breakfast was extremely expensive , we didn’t want a huge one only toast and coffee. On the second day the room key didn’t work so we had to return to the front desk to reactivate.
- Mike (10/5): - Wonderful modern hotel, AMAZING FOOD. Great views and cocktails especially from the Sky Bar. Very quick tram service into Central
- Jun (8/5): - The hotel locate in a quiet area. It take about 30-40 minutes to travel from center station to the hotel. When we arrive in the weekend, tram 29 wasn't running. We took bus 79 which is free during weekend.
- Rory (2/5): AVIOD AVIOD AVIOD - The dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in…..the staff are rude and try to charge you for things you haven’t done. I am a medical cannabis user and have been visiting Holland for 20 odd years and never had a problem leaving my medicine in my room but this time I got accused of smoking and they locked my door and refused to open it until I payed a fine. I explained to the rude hotel staff who continued to tell me that I will be watched like a hawk the whole remainder of my stay. The rooms are small and filthy with dust from floor to ceiling and all the windows were so dirty you can barely see out of them. The balcony was the dirtiest I have ever witnessed with cigarettes stuffed under the lip of the walls. There is no WiFi and your phone signal I limited I never had more than 1 bar. The tv channels are all in Dutch and they have no apps and they’re mirroring services don’t work either. Loud music from the rooftop bar that can be privately rented will most certainly keep you awake till 12am with thumping music that vibrates throughout the hotel. I have stayed in cleaner hostel that show you more respect. Avoid this hotel like the plague it’s a run buy liars and thieves that will try and scam you.
- Isabel (10/5): - Absolutely beautiful hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive. The food in the main restaurant was exceptional and the sky bar had beautiful views over the coastline. The hotel was also well connected to the city centre with regular buses and trams running into the evening. We will definitely want to return on our next visit to the city.
- Linda (8/5): - So accommodating
- Stephen (6/5): - Not too bad but the beds are rock hard and the pillows were very lumpy and had we all had bad necks after two nights there
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice modern hotel on outskirts of Amsterdam - Nice modern hotel on the outskirts of Amsterdam. Located in a clean, new neighbourhood around 15mins from Centraal Station. Tram number 26 is 7-8mins walk from the hotel
- chun kit roger (10/5): - Overall is a very good hotel and experience , however, when I come back home, I realized that no VIP arrangement as well as room upgrade mentioned
- Fenneke (8/5): Great location, nice room and delicious breakfast - Great location with easy access to city centre with tram. Delicious breakfast and nice room with view over Ijburg and Ijselmeer. We found the mattrass a bit too firm though. Tip for hotel management: place bins outside near the entrance to somewhere else. It’s horrible to enter the hotel through a smoke curtain and it doesn’t fit within your sustainability ethos!
- Alyssa (10/5): - Nice hotel outside the bustle of the inner city which was the biggest selling point for me. If you want the action, this place is not it, but it’s only 15 min from CS on tram 26 toward Ijburg. There were nice views of the water from the room. Hotel restaurant was lovely. The bed had lots of nice pillows and the bathroom was very clean. Only downside is it’s a 5-10 min walk from the tram stop, which could be a pain for someone with a lot of luggage.
- Tino (8/5): - Great views
- Sam (10/5): - I liked the public transport connection to he city centre, and the fact that the hotel is right next to the sea. I also liked the facilities in the room, and the beds were very comfortable.
- Keyimani (10/5): - Very beautiful hotel close to the train station. Great place to be away from the hustle of Central Amsterdam. Bar and restaurant good amenity. Very friendly staff!
- Kristine (10/5): - Loved the hotel, very clean , everything is brand new. Staff is excellent shame a dont remember names , as guys some guys were brilliant , very helpful. Appart from one blond guy on a reception , he is deffinitely doing a wrong job , very rude. Everyone else , bar staff, receptionists , restaurant staff were amazing. Breakfast, dinner deffinitely worth to try .
- lucy (10/5): - Very modern, spacious, clean, sky bar view is fantastic. Huge outside dining area but could do with some covered area. Breakfast was very good plenty of choice
- Michael (10/5): - Great hotel, really good standard of room. Service was very good. In terms of location, you are out of the city and in a new dock development that is still under construction and feels a but half lived in. It definitely doesn't have any of the cities character, but is pleasant looking out towards the sea. It's only 30mins into central Amsterdam on the tram that leaves every 10mins. Would be happy to stay again and would recommend
- Sarah (10/5): - Super hotel. Very modern & clean with friendly staff. Perfect location, with all amenities. Brilliant cycling & walking routes & places to just sit & take your time. Tram 26 takes you direct to Amsterdam in 15 minutes. I would not hesitate to stay again.
- Johanna (10/5): - Beautiful, clean, super friendly and accommodating staff. Short walk for the train, public transportation.
- Richard (8/5): - It was a good place to stay at, not too far from the Amsterdam Centraal.
- Hamed (8/5): - Nice clean modern. May need a better reception
- Artem (10/5): - Nice hotel for stay
- Chris (8/5): - The smart sensor/lighting. System resulted in waking up my sleeping partner… … The room was very modern and striking, and the bed was very comfortable
- Rashel (10/5): Dutch Grand Prix 2023 - My family and I had a fantastic time at the Four Elements hotel. We enjoyed both the accommodations and the convenient location. The front desk and food & beverage staff were exceptional.
- Roozbeh Akhavan (10/5): - Easy upgrade upon arrival. Great internal decoration. Modern and clean.
- Matthew (8/5): - Enjoyable stay. Quiet area with great view of the water. Close to tram stops with quick travel to and from Centraal Station and supermarket and a few good bars.
- Douglas (10/5): - Was a fantastic property
