Amsterdam Museum Tours and Activities

Overall I enjoyed my stay at Mercure Hotel Amsterdam Sloterdijk Station. The hotel was close to the train station which meant it was easy to get out and about. The room I stayed in was very spacious with ample room to move about. The bathroom was also larger than expected. The only minor dissatisfaction with the room was I could see the Girl with the Pearl Earring painting in the room had what looked like some liquid streak on it which you could see at an angle, as well as some liquid streaks on the door that opened up the area for where the kettle is. One thing of note to anyone looking to stay at this particular hotel. There are major roadworks going on in front of the hotel which means the access to the train station is to go around the roadworks which isn't a lot more walking but still a detour to direct access. Whilst we were there which was over the weekend and a couple of days into the week there wasn't any actual work so there was not any noise disturbance. However, I can imagine that being an issue for hotel guests when work is going on outside the hotel.

The whole experience was lovely and relaxing. The staff were all friendly, welcoming, and eager to help. I wrote in my earlier review that I did not get my VIP bottle of wine. My error. When I look at my reservation, the perk was one free drink during my stay, which they gave me. Improvements would be: The refrigerator was not nearly cool enough, and it was installed in such a way that the outside vent throws off so much heat, it heats up the safe! I couldn't lock my medications in the safe because it was so warm. Add a mini bar, please. A hotel of this caliber should offer one. Late in evening, even the hotel bar doesn't have anything to snack on. Everything else was wonderful. I will definitely back.
