(Translated by Google) BunnyBou14, The fact that your room was kept clean throughout your entire stay is a compliment we particularly appreciate. It is not just about a pleasant first impression upon arrival, but also about the attention during the days that followed. We are glad that you experienced that continuity and enjoyed your stay so much. Your comment about the elevator is also a practical detail that is easily overlooked. For you, this amenity was clearly a plus. Together with the convenient location and the amenities you found within walking distance, this contributed to the ease of your visit. We are pleased that our staff were helpful and attentive. Attention is often found in small moments: a clear explanation, thinking along with a question, or simply noticing when someone could use support. It is pleasant to read that you felt well helped in this way. Returning to the hotel on foot after a day in Amsterdam and finding a clean room there makes it easy to unwind. Your review shows that comfort, practical amenities, and personal attention came together well for you. The reception at XO Hotels is available 24 hours a day for support during your stay. A reliable experience and meticulous cleaning remain daily priorities. The fact that you rate the value for money so positively indicates that you look not only at the rate, but also at what you have experienced in return. For a future visit, it is good to know that booking directly through our website offers a 10% discount, including tourist tax, direct contact with the hotel, and the first hour of late check-out free of charge. These are concrete benefits to consider when comparing booking options. Thank you for your warm recommendation. We look forward to welcoming you again for a stay that feels just as pleasant and well-cared for.

Het gaat niet alleen om een prettige eerste indruk bij aankomst, maar ook om de aandacht op de dagen daarna. Fijn dat u die continuïteit heeft ervaren en zo van uw verblijf heeft genoten. Ook uw opmerking over de lift is een praktisch detail dat gemakkelijk over het hoofd wordt gezien. Voor u was deze voorziening duidelijk een pluspunt. Samen met de gunstige ligging en de voorzieningen die u op loopafstand vond, droeg dat bij aan het gemak van uw bezoek. We zijn blij dat onze medewerkers behulpzaam en attent waren. Aandacht zit vaak in kleine momenten: een duidelijke uitleg, meedenken bij een vraag of gewoon merken wanneer iemand ondersteuning kan gebruiken. Het is prettig om te lezen dat u zich op die manier goed geholpen voelde. Na een dag in Amsterdam lopend terugkeren naar het hotel en daar een schone kamer aantreffen, maakt het gemakkelijk om even tot rust te komen. Uw beoordeling laat zien dat comfort, praktische voorzieningen en persoonlijke aandacht voor u goed samenkwamen. De receptie van XO Hotels is 24 uur per dag beschikbaar voor ondersteuning tijdens het verblijf. Een betrouwbare ervaring en zorgvuldige schoonmaak blijven dagelijkse prioriteiten. Dat u de prijs-kwaliteitverhouding zo positief beoordeelt, geeft aan dat u niet alleen naar het tarief kijkt, maar ook naar wat u daarvoor heeft ervaren. Voor een volgend bezoek is het goed om te weten dat rechtstreeks boeken via onze website 10% korting biedt, met toeristenbelasting inbegrepen, direct contact met het hotel en het eerste uur late check-out gratis. Dit zijn concrete voordelen om mee te nemen bij het vergelijken van boekingsmogelijkheden. Bedankt voor uw warme aanbeveling. We ontvangen u graag opnieuw voor een verblijf dat weer even prettig en verzorgd aanvoelt.

user user, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the reception experience felt unwelcoming and that the noise affected your stay, especially when you were hoping for a calm and comfortable visit. It is good to read that the room was clean and that you liked the area, as those are important parts of the experience for many guests. Still, we understand that a small room and noise from the elevator or ventilation can make a stay feel less relaxing than it should. If these points had been shared during the stay, our team would have tried to help immediately and improve the situation on the spot. We appreciate you taking the time to mention them, because feedback like this helps us keep working on service and comfort. Warm regards, Team XO Hotels info@ xohotels.com +31 (0)202629263 xohotels .com #xohotels #amsterdam #book #direct #comfortable #friendly #clean #affordable #genuine #hospitality Simple stays.

Katie L, Thank you for sharing your experience—it sounds like you found a lovely balance of calm and convenience during your stay. It’s easy to picture starting the day with a walk through the nearby park, then hopping on the tram and being in the heart of Amsterdam within minutes. Many guests appreciate exactly that combination: a peaceful neighborhood with excellent public transport connections. We’re also glad the twin beds and comfortable bedding made traveling with your friend that much easier—good sleep really sets the tone for a great city trip. At XO Hotels, our team works hard to keep rooms clean, welcoming, and practical for all types of travelers, and it’s great to hear that came through. For future stays, booking directly with XO Hotels also gives you small extras like a 10% discount and a free first hour of late check-out. Sounds like you found a great spot—next time, maybe even better with a little extra sleep in.

Summary for your reference
The best time to visit is May through September, when temperatures are mild and pleasant, ranging from 17°C to 22°C. June and September are especially nice, with fewer rain days and lower humidity. July is the wettest month, while October and November are the rainiest and coolest stretches. Spring brings the famous tulip season, though the exact bloom varies.
The Canal Ring, especially around the Nine Streets, suits first-timers who want to be near the main sights and shops. The Jordaan is a quieter, charming residential area with cafes and galleries, ideal for a relaxed stay. The Museum Quarter is best for art lovers, close to the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum. The city center around Dam Square is convenient for sightseeing and nightlife. Hotels like Hotel Estheréa, Andaz Amsterdam Prinsengracht, and Pulitzer Amsterdam are in the Canal Ring.
Start at the Rijksmuseum for Dutch masters and history, then the Van Gogh Museum next door for his iconic works. The Anne Frank House offers a powerful, personal look at WWII. Relax in Vondelpark, the city's main green space. For a different view, head to the A'DAM Lookout for panoramic skyline views, or explore NEMO Science Museum for hands-on exhibits.
Full-day tours from Amsterdam head to Zaanse Schans, Edam, Volendam and Marken for windmills and fishing villages; Bruges for its medieval canals; Keukenhof for tulips and windmills; Rotterdam, Delft and The Hague for modern architecture, Delftware and government sights; and Giethoorn for its car-free, canal-side village.
Plan 3 days for the main sights: the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Anne Frank House, Vondelpark, and the Royal Palace. Add a fourth day for NEMO Science Museum or ARTIS, and a fifth if you take a day trip to Zaanse Schans or Giethoorn. Two days would feel rushed for the top museums alone.
