ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera

Vibrant economy hotel, open to everyone

A 3-star central Amsterdam hotel with canal views, ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera has a peaceful location and comfortable rooms just east of the city centre. As many Amsterdam companies and landmarks - Waterlooplein, the Van Gogh Museum and Rijksmuseum - are within half an hour's walk, it's an affordable option for business and leisure travellers alike. With a 24-hour takeaway, an extensive breakfast buffet and late-night bites or drinks in our sociable bar, you can go get what you came for in Amsterdam.

Sightseeing? Book our modern Amsterdam accommodation and you'll find the city simple to explore on foot. It's 6 minutes' walk from Stopera on Waterlooplein - where there's a weekend flea market - and 13 minutes from late-night Rembrandtplein. Museums within walking distance include the Rembrandt House Museum, Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and Anne Frank House. Amsterdam Centraal is 15 minutes' stroll, and once there you can hop on boat cruises past stately waterside mansions on the elegant Canal Ring.

Metro Line 53 from Waterlooplein (6 minutes) takes you to Amsterdam Centraal in 2 stops, and from there it's a 15-minute train ride to Schiphol Airport. Driving? There's a public parking garage 4 minutes' walk from our reliable hotel near the Stopera.

Thank you for choosing our Amsterdam hotel with canal views - we know you'll sleep well in our peaceful rooms! With so much to do and see within walking distance, we hope you'll also drop into our convivial sports bar for live matches and a beer or two.

Staff were very helpful and couldn't do more but the rooms were shockingly dirty and the cleaning was absent in the days we stayed they visited once and the towels were poor quality

Dear Sarah, Thank you for providing your observations. We are delighted to hear you found our team both friendly and attentive during your stay. Their commitment to providing thoughtful service is something we take great pride in. That said, we sincerely apologize that aspects of housekeeping and amenities did not meet the standards we aim to uphold.

Ruiyi Z. Families - 4/5/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

During my stay at ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera, I found a few aspects that did not fully meet expectations. The hotel is located on the edge of the city centre, which means it typically takes at least 15 minutes to reach the main central areas, and around 40 minutes on foot to the Rijksmuseum. The room itself was quite small and lacked some basic amenities, such as a kettle and cups, which are usually expected for a comfortable stay. In addition, the cleanliness of the toilet did not meet typical hotel standards, which was disappointing. Overall, while the hotel may be acceptable for a short stay, the location, room facilities, and cleanliness do not fully justify the price.

Dear Z., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We sincerely apologize that your experience fell short in several aspects. Our location near the Canal Ring aims to balance proximity to central attractions with a peaceful environment, though we regret if this didn’t meet your family’s needs during this trip. Regarding connectivity, we are actively working to enhance our internet infrastructure to ensure seamless service for all guests. While our pricing reflects amenities like 24-hour reception and premium bedding, we understand your perspective on value and will review this feedback carefully. We look forward to welcoming you back for an improved experience. Best wishes, Team Ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera

Stayed for a weekend and we were very happy. Staff are all friendly and helpful. Food is simple and good. It is located in a quiet area and a 10 minute walk gets you to the city centre.

Dear Paul, Thank you for your positive feedback. We are thrilled to know your stay at ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera was enjoyable. Our team takes pride in delivering friendly and efficient service, and we are delighted this enhanced your visit. It is wonderful that you found our breakfast offerings both fresh and satisfying. We’re also glad the calm surroundings and proximity to key attractions contributed to a pleasant city break. We hope to welcome you back for another seamless experience soon. We hope to see you again soon for another enjoyable experience. Best wishes, Team Ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera

Gordon M. Couples - 4/3/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

I received email at midnight before arriving stating by room would not be saved if I did not pay before 2pm....when check in was at 3pm and I'd previously informed ibis that as aircraft didn't arrive until 3.30pm so I wouldn't be at hotel until about 5pm this was worrying. So therefore, even though by booking confirmation stated 'pay on arrival' I had the stress of not knowing whether or not a room would still be awaiting me. Contrary to what 2 different receptionist told me during my stay that ibis always required payment for first night before arrival, and as a member and regular guest, I have never had the threat to pay in this way before. I'm booked to stay in Mancher for 3nights in May, so let's see what happens......

Dear Gordon, We appreciate your feedback and regret that your experience fell short. We sincerely apologize that your experience fell short in some areas, particularly regarding the communication around payment procedures. Our standard policy allows payment upon arrival for bookings made through our website, and we regret any confusion caused by the email you received. This is not reflective of our usual practices for Classic members like yourself. We take your comments about the inconsistencies in communication from our team seriously and will address this internally to ensure clarity moving forward. While we are pleased to note your continued support of our loyalty program, we understand the stress this situation caused and deeply regret the impact on your arrival experience. Kind regards, Team Ibis Amsterdam Centre Stopera
