Review summary

Based on recent reviews

CityHub Amsterdam offers a modern and unique experience with its pod-style rooms, featuring customizable lighting and comfortable beds. Guests appreciate the convenience of the location, next to a food market and close to a tram stop for easy access to the city center; it's about 10 minutes from the center with a tram 5 minutes away from the hotel. The communal bathrooms are generally considered clean and well-equipped, even offering Rituals products, and the self-check-in process is efficient, though some found the location not ideal. A big bed for 2 people is very appreciated.

Compact Stay, Great Experience

bracelet technologyhot showersquiet roomshower gel

The bracelet technology worked well. It allowed access to lockers, the bar. our room. The room was quiet despite neighbors below. I really liked the powerful, hot showers. Rituals shower gel provided a touch of luxury.

The robes were too thin. Slippers would be a helpful addition for trips to the bathroom.
