Party EarthOctober 26, 2012Hotel Arena is a nice spot for lounging with a cocktail in the afternoon as well. The two patios outside of the club area stay sunny all day and offer a peaceful escape from the busy tourist areas. Read moreUpvoted Aug 16
David RichardsSeptember 6, 2013A lovely old building, sensitively restored with modern decor. The room had a very high ceiling, the biggest curtains you've ever seen and the bathroom was in a glass cube in one corner of the room.
Meagan KirkpatrickJanuary 2, 2015Decent hotel, well designed and modern. Fairly priced with spacious rooms and a few little quirks (a tad noisy, plastic cups in the rooms, and aggressive cleaning staff).
Abed AftabiOctober 23, 2021An antient well decorated Hotel in the middle of a park and close to city centre, A perfect place for ceremonies or business events, Restaurant & meals are also interesting- Beautiful and calm place. About 10 min. from the city center. Staff is very friendly and helpful. All in all a lovely place to stay ♥️
It never disappoints architecturally or in the excellence of staff. First choice for a visit to Amsterdam always. But difficult to get a room on a weekend in the summer due to the nightclub next door.
S G YOctober 19, 2015Very stylish hotel with spacious rooms and friendly staff. Perfect location if you don't wanna stay in the city centre.
Ricky AJanuary 14, 2019The bathroom, was surrounded by a dark glass. My wife and I love each other, but have no desire to see each other drop the kids off at the pool. ;). Bathroom is a good example of form over function.
Ella AdamMarch 14, 2017Book a room with park view because the street side can be very noisy. Beyond that, superb hotel and very friendly staff!
Juan Pablo LlamasDecember 28, 2018Great hotel for modern people, most of the restrooms on the rooms are kinda transparent.
Andreas NellasDecember 15, 2017Amazing bar and restaurant area. The decoration is very modern since it was renovated recently.
ChronospaceMarch 10, 2012Book a Lindbergh excursion at front desk. Free pick-up at the hotel. Hop-on Hop-off, Windmillvillage, Volendam, no-q museumtickets or Belgium. Everything is possible!- Tomaz MurausFebruary 18, 2015Very friendly and helpful staff. The room (studio with a bath) was clean, nice and modern.
Ariel GorfungSeptember 20, 2014Cool modern and spacious rooms. Very nice and large patio for breakfast and lunches.
Otel.comJune 8, 2012Satisfy your cravings at the restaurant which offers sumptuous local and international dishes. Outdoor seating is available.
Thomas KnüwerSeptember 15, 2015Arena would love to be a design hotel, but roomwise it isn't. It's worn down, the service is slow. The whole house is screaming for a management that cares about detail and has a knack for service.
Amsterdam MagazineFebruary 4, 2011Not in the city center but a very beautiful, affordable place to stay. Have breakfast or cocktails on their giant deck.
Magdalena OhlApril 29, 2012watch out! extremaly small room with creepy stairs, 150€ deposit for the mini-bar and vvv unpleasant customer service can easily destroy your stay in amsterdam!
Shawn ChandyAugust 8, 2012Nice hotel. Beware of Room serivce charges and be prepared to carry your own luggage
Peter DoesburgJanuary 12, 2010Great place, good food, good people. If you go clubbing, go outside often enough or bring earplugs, cause the soundquality isn't all that
MeerBusiness AmsterdamJuly 6, 2010Hotel Arena, member of the Amsterdam Village Company was nominated top 3 for the Amsterdam Business Award 2010!
message to the management: please change your coffee brand to a good or at least a decent one. this Bazar you serve now is just really bad!
Paulina L.June 15, 2013great rooms, very modern and clean, but very poor wifi reception, and food rather poor
T & BApril 29, 2014You get for 300€ / night Unmotivated, inattentive Service, No towels in the bathroom but dirt everywhere!!!!! That's really bad...here never again!!!!
check the hotelrooms, this year redesigned and with huge flatscreens, awesome
Going to have dinner and afterwards to new year reception of THE IPAN
CH VeggiFebruary 22, 2017von außen ist das Hotel sehr schön und toll gelegen, allerdings sind die Zimmer sehr dreckig.... und das nicht vom Baustaub. Spinnennetz und modriger Geruch....
Luca DemariaAugust 26, 2015Ex ospedale dell'ottocento ora ristrutturato e diventato hotel a 4 stelle. Leggermente fuori dal centro, noi lo abbiamo trovato ad un buon prezzo. Camere in stile contemporaneo. Consigliato
Albert Jan BloemendalDecember 23, 2016Prachtige locatie. Mooi verbouwd. Kerk blijft apart. HvA kerstfeest was ronduit slecht. Iedereen met honger naar de snackbar.
sophie op den kampJanuary 26, 2016Er is bij het achterterras een speelhut, waardoor dit ook een leuke plaats is voor ouders met kinderen.- Tokio HondaDecember 12, 2017Im Winter Schnee schieben wäre eine gute Idee, sonst wird der Koffer zum Schneeschieber. Gut geplant, aber teilweise handwerklich schlecht umgesetzt. Aber hilfreiches und freundliches Personal.
