Rosendaelsche Golfclub

Positives. Helpful and pleasant staff. Less than 10 minutes walk in nice neighborhood from Amsterdam Zuid train and metro station. Bed is comfy and room is functional. Quiet. Blackout drapes. The negatives are the weirdness of all CitizenM hotels. The bed is up against the window so one person needs to climb over the other one in bed. No kettle or coffee service. Limited privacy with a pull curtain between the bedroom and separate toilet room and shower. Restaurants within 10 minute walk. For us for 2 nights it worked - great price compared to central hotels and easy train access to Schiphol.

Very cute tiny hotel with super welcoming and kind staff. I will say that there are a few big downsides - the main one being that the toilet in our room had a clear glass door, which was uncomfortable. The fixtures in our room were a bit worn out and some parts of the room felt like they could’ve been a bit cleaner. That being said, the hospitality at this hotel is amazing. The staff were so kind and welcoming, and there is a free happy hour and a cute little terrace outside that is open all hours. The staff let us stay on the terrace even after we had checked out, and they let us check out late for free because my friend had been sick the night before and wasn’t able to get much sleep. Really the main thing that stopped this from being a four star review is that the price is the bathroom door situation - we basically ended up using the downstairs bathroom the entire time, which can only be accessed by going outside and was kind of inconvenient. In the grand scheme of things it’s not a huge deal, but it feels like such an easy thing to fix by adding a privacy screen or something. I don’t take points off for things outside of the hotel’s control (ie, outside noise etc) but this is something that is definitely within the hotel’s control and I think having some more privacy would’ve made our stay more comfortable.

Everything was great but personally we struggled with no air conditioning.
