Hotel Paganini - Amsterdam

6.7

Paganini hotel is nicely situated and the price is ok compared to what you get. The public areas in the hotel could be fresher, the breakfast room a bit larger. The room was small but nice and clean.

8.7

Price/quality = perfect! Much more than what I expected. The location is easy to find, mainly by train. Most important thing to me: room was clean. The bedsheets and the towels were clean but reeeeealy old! The matress was too soft/old (after a busy day it makes a lot of difference).If you know Amsterdam, you know that its almost impossible to find places without huge stairs. The problem was that the girl gave the wrong card: so I had to go up there 2x! and the entrance of Paganini is about 50m of the reception. She was not friendly at all, but ok. I will indicate to my friends and I'll go back.

good location, but very small rooms, and breakfast room area was tiny, but breakfast was good, you could have as much as you want

Hello, I do not much have to say, without we were disappointed. The hotel is so simple for the price. The reception is limited. The shuttle for the airport is in fact a taxi in 40 euros... And at the indicated price is added taxes them, what is not clarified. We found this correct hotel to sleep passes in transit and to have breakfast but certainly not to cross/spend one good night. We did not want to stay there second night... Good day. Friendly

4.6

Room was very small, just enough space for one double bed (140cm) with only one bedsheet/duvet! (We had asked for a twin room with to seperate beds when booking!) Hotel quite old, very small staircase and no lift! (so don't travel with big luggage, you could end up carrying it all up to the fifth floor...) Breakfast served in other hotel on the same road, distance about 200m. Quality of breaktfast okay.

hotel paganini belongs to hotel vivaldi, witch is situated in the close neighbourhood. here you find the reception and the breakfast room for both hotels. we got our double room in the vivaldi hotel. it was on the ground floor with a view on the very noisy street. (there was no difference if the window was open or closed, always pretty loud). ear-plugs recommended! beds ok, small wardrobe, small table, curtain dirty, bathroom nice and new, but small and smelly - ventilation did not work. sometimes the shower-tube came down... employees were nice and cooperative. breakfast was ok. at arrival we had to pay 5% taxes additional on the price. on the reservation page this was not denounced. the situation of the hotel is quite good. near by the city and museums. tram station next to the hotel.

1.1

It was horrible, never again!

4.1

camere piccolissime

4.4

esta relativamente cerca de las atracciones de la ciudad, pero en general se puede encontrar un hotel mas espacioso eso y el servicio humano se pueden mejorar

6.9

Very tiny room. Not enough space for two young girls to change and be comfortable. Was clean, we had to climb 4 floors of very slanted stairs because the elevator was out of service. The hostess wasn't friendly or nice. Didn't have the best welcoming ever. Good breakfast.

2.8

The first room we where given had two single beds with about half a metre between them.No place to put clothing,no wardrobe.After complaing we were put in a better room the next day this room was more what we expexted for the price.This place maybe ok for a backpacker staying overnight but not for any longer no.

3.9

One day when we came back (late afternoon) to our room, the door was open. We could`n see that an items were stolen

4.3

Room : Large window to the South, and no Air Conditionning, you can imagine by sunny days... Poor breakfast service (i.e. 2 days with lack of butter - in NL !- lack of coffee on second day...)

1.4

AVOID THIS HOTEL!!!! This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. My room was extremely small and had no ventilation. There were cigarette papers left on the nightstand. There was maybe one foot of room between my bed and the wall. The TV did not work. It was extremely noisy. And, to top it off, my bed was MISSING two of its legs, so that I tilted downwards when I lay down. When I told the night receptionist, he said he couldn't change me to another room because I had already used the bathroom (!). Turns out there was another room available that night. They gave me another room the next night, but did not want to do anything to compensate me for my night in the broken room. It took me 5 hours out of my day to haggle the 85 euros price down to 45. The staff seemed genuinely uninterested in my problem.

9.1

I had an excellent stay at this hotel. No doubt that the room was very, very small. However, the location of this hotel could not be better. It is close to anything of interest in Amsterdam: the van Gogh Museum, Rijks Museum, the flower market, Vondel Park, etc. Also it is very easy to get there by tram (tram # 16) from the train central station. If you don't mind the size of the room, but you do mind the cleanliness of your room, an excellent location, good price and a good breakfast this is the place to be in Amsterdam.

5.7

The hotel was conviently situated near to the museum area. The room was modern and clean with a nice bathroom.However the room was tiny and therefore seemed to be not very good value for money.

2.4

While it is well known that even moderate accommodation in Amsterdam is expensive, this was extremely poor quality for 99 euros each for two single rooms. There were no wardrobes, the drawers were dirty, my friend's room was so small she had to be moved, neither room was cleaned at all during a four-day stay (and the rooms were grubby to begin with), the TVs were not tuned in and one remote did not work, there was no drinking glass provided, the overhead light did not work in one room, there was no natural light in two of the three rooms we had, the staff were sometimes reluctant to help with luggage and there was nowhere to store baggage for a late check-out.

7.6

I was disappointed there really was NO free airport shuttle as advertised on your web page. I'm not walking down the streets of Amsterdam at 5am in the morning dragging a heavy suitcase walking to another hotel that does have free shuttle service. Also we were charged for a full breakfast, even tho we left the hotel at 5:30 am to catch our flight back to Canada that was leaving at 7:30am. The night fellow was very nice to make us coffee and give us some snacks at 5am.

2.3

Never seen such a noisy place!!!

4.2

We were given an inside room - no ventilation, except for a small blower (very poor); no closet; no chair; bed was on top of a radiator, fortunately we did not need heat.

6.2

Morning and evening staff were very pleasant and helpful, a definite plus. However, our double room was fairly cramped (smaller than that pictured on the Venere website.) Our room was situated next to the stairwell and the first two nights of our stay was extremely noisy, especially closing doors separating the stairwell from corridors. My wife guessed a tour group occupied the hotel. The latter three nights were quiet. Consequently, one's stay is the "luck of the draw" in this regard. We chose the hotel because it was conveniently located near the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum. We discovered, too, that it is just off a main tram line to the Dam and Central Station (only a short tram ride.) A bonus of this area is that we were told it is the "student" area. Consequently, there are several very reasonably priced, and quite good, restaurants nearby.

7.2

Our room was on the ground floor by the front door. The bathroom was supposed to be ensuite, but was actually out of our room and extremely difficult to access due to the lack of space in that area. (We couldn't open our door at the same time as the bathroom door.) The breakfast was good, the staff friendly and the location excellent. Our room left a little to be desired. There was nowhere to hang your clothes (We were there for 4 nights) and very little surfaces to put things on, so there was only the floor. The carpet was very stained and the bedding was very basic. All in all though we would probably stay there again, because for the price its fine.

La camera è piccolissima, così come il prezzo! Ottimo personale e colazione abbondante. Camera veramente pulita

Hotel plutot bien situé, plusieurs lignes de tram sont toutes proches.Les chambres donnant sur l'arriere du batiment sont calmes mais les cloisons entre les chambres sont plutot minces.Accueil agréable, personnel disponible.Petit déjeuner très correct.

8.3

Very nice hotel, but don't trust the map. It's about 20min walk from the casino - not right opposite. It got us used to using the trams anyway! Rooms were very clean and bathrooms very good - although could hear everything in every other room through the walls. Would consider staying again, can't fault the price.

7.2

I am very impressed with the quality of information your site provides and will be using you again

7.0

This was my first solo trip after a marriage breakdown. I needed a safe hotel where I could feel relaxed. My choice was excellent. The hotel was ideally situated for me near the museums and the social areas of Leidesplein and Rembrandtsplein without being in the "thick of it" as we say. I will certainly return to Amsterdam and the 'Paganini' may well be my choice next time. However when I booked it was not made clear that I had booked room only. I assumed it was bed and breakfast. That was not a problem- the breakfast was fine.

7.4

Good location. Restaurants nearby. Also close to Rijksmuseum. Some traffic noise from street. Friendly staff.

3.4

The room on the first flore had no ventilation at all, I could hear all the guests going in/out with horrible loud bell going off throughout the night. The room was tiny, although the bath was ok. The hotel has a nice yard for breakfast though. Probably, the rooms on other flores are not so bad. The stay seemed to be too expensive for this quality.

6.7

Good place. May return.

4.5

My room was tiny, the bed barely fitted. The TV was up high on the ceiling where I loomed large over the room. Bathroom was clean and the shower was fine, not so worried about that, but really annoyed at tiny-ness of the room.

3.3

Our experience with this hotel was very poor. we required 2 double rooms for 2 nites; one was small but okay; the other was an "inside" room with no window or fan. the temperature reached well above 90 in the enclosed room;so our two adult sons had to come into our room and sleep on the floor. the second nite, they accomodated us with a new room; but acted so surprised with our situation. we decided to book a nite for our return to the States, on the full assurance that we were booking two specific rooms. on our arrival, they had moved our booking to two inside rooms. and claimed no documentation and utter surprise that we did not want the two inside rooms. we could not recommend this hotel to anyone.

2.0

This was the absolute worst hotel I have stayed in for the price. The room was the size of a closet and smelled. Claustrophics beware! What a rip-off!

7.1

Very well located as far as trams and major museums but far for walking to downtown. No elevator which could be a problem but staff very accomodating. Bathroom definitly needs a shelf and hooks. Everything very clean. Staff helpful with information.

8.3

The Hotel is new and very nice, even if the rooms are quite small. The staff is kind and polite. The Hotel is situated in a good area, near centre and near museums.

9.4

the staff was very professional and helpful. the rooms were clean and the location couldn't be better,just minutes away from museum square , leidse squarea and dam. I have only ones breakast ( because of amsterdam's nightlife )and was ok . visit the jordaan ,( beautiful area ) and the Van gogh museum .

6.8

Very small room, without window! Very friendly staff. Well located. Good relationship between price/quality.

5.1

Very small room, rather noisy, cleanlines could have been better. For the other aspects it was good. Up to now they did not have the possibility to accept a credit card. Since the price was high, it was not the best solution to pay cash. Very good reception.

8.1

the relationship between pice and quality is very very good...the only thing that i didn't like it was the breakfast(it was a bit poor)...but the hotel was very nice and confortable...
