Mercure Amsterdam North Station 4 ดาว

Fantastic Hotel! We were so glad we stayed out of city centre as it was too busy for us there. It was only two tube stops to get to hotel area and 5 mins walk if that to the hotel. All staff were great! There was always someone on the front desk to talk to. They were always very helpful. Our room was superb- big size, very comfortable and bathroom superb. Breakfast was great too. So much variety! Area around hotel was great too. Lots of shops and places to eat.would stay again definitely!

This was our first time staying in this hotel, we chose this one as it was cheaper than the hotel we usually use and we were not disappointed. In fact, this hotel ended up being better than our usual one. It’s easy to get to. It’s just 2 stops on the metro, which was approximately €1.80 each way although we ended up buying a travel card so we could use the other transport for exploring too. The hotel is next to the metro station. The rooms were clean, comfortable and quiet. The view isn’t as good as other places we’ve stayed but we didn’t spend that much time in the room. We were looking out onto a colourful building which was possibly a school. The room has a little fridge in it which was handy. We were also given 2 bottles of water free when we arrived which were in the fridge. It also has a little place in a cupboard to make tea and coffee. There was a hairdryer and ironing board too. The bathroom was also a decent size. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis. The breakfast was really good. There was lots to choose from. There were hot and cold options. Hot options - bacon (very crispy), sausage, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, pancakes. You could also make your own waffles. There were lots of options for cold things too - yogurts, fruit, cold meat, cheese, different breads and pastries. The breakfast really set you up for a day of exploring. On checkout, the hotel stored our luggage for us until it was time to head to the airport. Would I stay here again? Yes most definitely.

Loved this hotel. Big spacious rooms. We were on the 8th floor and had a view over the bus and train station which my son loved. Air con and heating. Fresh towels every day. Bath robes supplied. Beds were very comfortable. My only criticism would be that one night we got back after a day of walking 20,000 steps had showers put on our comfy clothes and went to the restaurant for some food. They only do pizza. And only about 5 types of pizza. Which is cooked in a little pizza oven behind the bar. You’d think a big hotel like the Mercure would have more options so don’t expect much from eating in the hotel.

Extremely convenient location just two stops from central station on the Metro that then cuts right through the main centre going south. Walking distance to a Lidl and Jumbo supermarkets, as well as several takeaway restaurants. We had a very spacious, modern family room with a double bed and two single beds, small refrigerator, tea & coffee facilities and bottled water in room. Breakfast was buffet style - plentiful with cooked options and continental. It’s shared with guests from the tribe hotel next door and we enjoyed it each day. Room was very quiet at night, shower good. Cleaning good each day. Can’t fault our stay and recommend this hotel, particularly if staying as a family. Very good value for money compared to hotels located right in the old town.

Checking into the hotel was super quick and easy, the only thing i would comment on is the lack of information verbally given about the facilities but it is already written down for you on the card they provide. Staff are always nice and friendly and always greeted you when entering/leaving the building. They also provide umbrellas which are nice and sturdy for rainy days! The hotel itself is really nice and modern inside, our room was on the 8th floor facing the buildings out the front, but we could never hear anything from out there. You couldn’t hear any noise from outside the hotel room which was really nice and allowed us to sleep well. The room was always cleaned and the cleaners did a good job of making sure it was spotless. The hotel provides towelling robes and slippers which is a nice touch. The TV in the room was really good, it had wifi you could connect to and YouTube which was nice as we could listen to music while we got ready for the day. There was an option for bed and breakfast which we didn’t take so I cannot comment on the food, but i’m pretty sure it shares the same dining facilities as the Tribe next door and the same bar and gym. The only negative I could comment on is he fact that at 7:20am on the friday morning, we were woken up by the hotel fire alarm blasting through the speakers in our room. We had to go through the fire escape down 8 levels and once we reached the reception area absolutely nobody was down there and everybody was just going about their day? Very confusing, staff didn’t even acknowledge that it’d happened so no idea what actually went on, but it left us very confused lol. Just opposite the hotel there is a small corner shop. About a 10 minute walk away there is a small shopping square called Boven’t Y, it has a handful of supermarkets which was handy for getting a few snacks for the room and water, and there were some fast food places like McDonalds and KFC. There’s also a small station shop in Noord station. When it came to checking out, we left our luggage with the receptionists in the luggage room as we had a late flight back so didn’t need to be at the airport until a lot later in the day. The staff were very kind and accommodating even tho we had checked out, and even gave us a bottle of water for the journey home.

One major thing i can comment on is how good the transport links are around the hotel. We booked this hotel as we previously have stayed in the Tribe, which is next door, and liked the area and the distance from all the main places in Amsterdam. We got the to the hotel using public transport - train to Centraal station from the airport, then Metro 52 to Noord (last stop). This hotel isn’t far from Centraal or Dam Square, but it’s obviously not within walking distance from it. If you walk out the front of the hotel and turn left, about 30 seconds down the road you’ll find Station Noord which takes you straight to Centraal Station (or further) within 10 - 15 minutes, if that. The Metros at this station are pretty regular as well so you don’t have to do much waiting around for them, and we found ourselves frequently using it to go and and forth and have a break from the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam in the day. I would 100% recommend getting the travel passes from Centraal Station, it cost us €37 each for 144 hours and it allows you to freely use all of the Metros, Trams, Busses and Ferries which is extremely helpful for getting in all the fun activities done that are around Amsterdam. I would 100% recommend anybody to stay at this hotel and would definitely revisit if i came back to Amsterdam for a third time.
