Formidable sejour
Pros:

formidable petit hotel, dans un quartier tres calme, en face d'un parc zoologique tout aussi intéressant.
ligne 14 pour partir au centre historique de Amsterdam, pas mal de restaurants et bars juste a cote
le personnel au petit soin, et tres professionnel

Cons:

le seule probleme, les toilettes étaient trop petites, j'avais carrément ma tête contre le mur, pas recommandé pour les grandes tailles.

Pros:

Great placement at Plantage district. Beautiful lobby, great breakfast, good fitness room. Lovely people at service. Suggested.

Cons:

Room with 4 bed without wardrobe. Luggage has to be kept full and placed on the floor with a result to have difficult to walk around the room.

Stylish and well located
Pros:

My first impression was of a very stylish hotel in a lovely green neighbourhood. There are cafes nearby, as well as the lovely zoo, museums and gardens, including flamingos, and only a short tram ride or a 20 minute walk from the centre of Amsterdam. The rooms were very comfortable, clean and quiet, with modern bathrooms and supportive mattress on the bed.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have shampoo and conditioner provided.

Location was convenient for our first visit to Amsterdam and we did manage to see a lot of the sights
Pros:

We loved the location and it is a lovely hotel, staff were very helpful and welcoming.

Cons:

Our room was a little cosy, too cosy, no where to put our suitcases or space to get around beds. For a five nights stay stay for two people in one small room was inconvenient and uncomfortable

A lovely hotel, but wouldn’t think it’s a 4-star hotel.
Pros:

The leonardo boutique hotel had nice decor and is a perfect location for commuting to the centre or in and around Amsterdam. Also perfect distance from the airport. Staff were friendly and supportive.
The room itself was comfortable although a bit on the small side for the double room.

Cons:

I thought the hotel was very basic for a 4-star rated hotel. It was also one of the first hotels I’ve stayed in where you weren’t given an induction about the amenities upon check-in. I can appreciate the check-in being digitised but it’s pretty standard to have this information delivered upon check-in or there be information detailed in your room.
Unfortunately, I did have problems checking in and wasn’t overly joyed to be asked “if we booked for today” —probably some technical errors that couldn’t be helped. The staff were extremely accommodating throughout, offering a complimentary drink which was very much so appreciated.

It was sufficient for myself there for the 4 days but wasn't clean, it was the smallest room I have ever had In a ho
Pros:

Location was really good.

Cons:

The rooms are awfully small, the first room had no window and the second room was so small the bathroom door wouldn't even open over half way with out hitting the bed, luckily I was staying alone. The room didn't get cleaned in the entire 4 days that I stayed either.
