Belfort Hotel

Lovely Hotel, Wasn’t expecting much from the reviews. However, 8 nights spent here, comfortable rooms, cleaned daily. Definitely underrated hotel. Location great, walking to centre 25 minutes or rent a bike from hotel get you there in 10.

Stay out! I had to stay 3 nights at this place and I really do not have enough words to describe how terrible it was! I have been to several hotels (low budget as well like 50 -60 euros per night in different European countries that were great) since I am travelling a lot but this was really the first time that I felt disgusted !The room was not clean at all, the sheets had hair on them, and stains all over, dust was over the bed frame. I got to the reception asking for other sheets they gave me and still few little hair and stains in some of them. I’ve mentioned it again but they did not seem to bother at all. The tent I slept in Sahara with all this sand was cleaner than this. Unfortunately, I could not stay elsewhere since I was travelling for work and it was booked for me, so I could not find something last minute that I could afford but if I could, I would have left the place immediately! Two of our colleagues told us that they found some very small bugs like cockroaches during the second /third day. The one at her bed !! and the other at the bathroom. I really have never written such a bad review for a hotel, but I am reading similar comments now about the cleanliness and from what I see this is smg that did not just happen on a bad day just on me and my colleagues but on contrary it happens a lot at this place for a long period of time, which means that the owners and personnel simply just don’t care about hygiene, they dont respect their clients that pay a considerable amount of money, and they do not do anything to fix this, thus keep putting clients’ health in danger!!! It’s a shame, so disrespectful and unacceptable! ! I don’t care about the old furniture the no aircon , the size, but there must be some minimum standards. Cleanliness is non negotiable regardless of the price of the room!!! If you find it with like 10 euros , it is maybe ok for some of you just for a night, but check the room and mainly the bed before going to sleep / sit and bring with you a towel, a pillowcase and a spray at least. I really don’t understand how some people write that they find it clean! We were 7 people in 7 different rooms and EVERYONE had to say something about the dirt!

Cheap hotel, and I wish I read the reviews before booking here. The hotel is dirty, from the reception to the rooms. The pillows are rock solid, and there are stains on the pillows & bedsheets. They have a bed bug infestation (see the attached photos). When I tried to contact the hotel to report the bed bugs, management refused to talk to me. Amsterdam health authority have been contacted. AVOID

I am quite surprised by the amount of negative reviews for this place . Staff was friendly, rooms are cleaned daily. Showers good, breakfast is ok with free refills on the coffee, Location is good, the tram is right outside the hotel get the number 17 into town which takes about 15 mins Even had a few bars/food places/Lidl/“coffee shop” within a 5 mins walk.

I was very worried after booking and reading many terrible reviews. It's true that people only write bad ones! I'm not! The hotel was clean, comfortable and felt safe. Could do with air con during summer months but was supplied with a HUGE fan to help. We were ground floor near a semi busy road but in all honesty for a small group of lads experiencing amsterdam that didn't really bother us. Plus within 10mins walking distance there are some lovely places to get a coffee and breakfast in the morning. Tram ride is 20 minutes to Dam Square and very easily accessible. The hotel even sorted out our 3 day passes for this and booked the Ice Bar for us. Wouldn't say it was a hotel for families etc due to being a basic budget hotel but it was fit for purpose and I can't really complain.
