Campanile Hotel & Restaurant Amsterdam Zuid-Oost

We checked in around 5pm local time, the staff who checked us in was really helpful and polite. We stayed on the bottom floor on the back which was really quiet. Our room was small but absolutely the right size for a couple. We had fresh towels and toiletries every day. The location is absolutely fantastic and very scenic. Metro station Gaasperplas was in touching distance from the hotel and around 20 minutes direct to Amsterdam Central which left every 10 minutes.

The location was the main reason for the choice of hotel,as we drove in from Germany and just left the car for the 3 days and caught the train. It is literally 2 minutes super easy walk to the station and it is a 25 minute ride to central, and you are always guaranteed a seat because it is the start of the line. The rooms were fine, they were clean and comfortable enough. There is a great area downstairs off the bar that is great for sitting and going through the days pictures while you have a drink. The staff were great, so easy to deal with and very friendly. We found the food to be quite simple and good without being amazing. A big breakfast is recommended as it was a great way to start the day.

It’s a quiet location with a huge park and beautiful lake behind it to explore (and you can hire bikes at this hotel). Yes it’s the end of the line - but literally right next door to the Gaasperplas train station so it’s super easy for day trips. There’s also a breakfast buffet and food and drinks available all day from the restaurant/bar.

location was quiet, away from the bustle of the city. Quieter. Roller shutters on the windows.

For us, this hotel was a very good option. We were looking for a hotel with free parking as many other hotels charge you from 15 to 30 euros a day to park your car. We also liked that the hotel was located away from the city centre which ment on departure day we got straight on a motorway and didn't have to experience morning rush hour traffic. However, even though the hotel is on the outskirts of Amsterdam, getting to the centre of Amsterdam was very easy. The metro station is right outside the hotel property, and the metro's run every couple of minutes. It takes around 20 minutes to get to Amsterdam Centraal, which for a city is very good. Also GVB (metro, tram and bus) day card is much cheaper than train one, so we where happy to spend only 15 euros on 2 day public transport card. The hotel room was clean and tidy. We spent most of our time in the city, so I can't say too much about the hotel itself.
