krp329 Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Used the link to HOTWIRE to search and book, and got this hotel for $94 per night, for three nights starting Oct. 16/10. Amenities listed were as in the hotel list (fitness centre, laundry, restaurant, Wifi, business centre, golf nearby and tennis nearby); am mainly posting here so others can know detail of price (which we are very pleased with - booking directly with the hotel was €520, or approx. $US660, vs. the $US308 total through HOTWIRE).I was getting a bit nervous of finding decently priced accommodation - seems our visit coincides with the Amsterdam Marathon, which apparently has 20,000+ competitors coming to the city. We would have preferred to be a bit more in the centre of town, and to stay somewhere less modern and with more "character", but it appears this hotel is not too far away from everything. I made many enquiries with budget hotels and B&Bs, looking for under C$150 per night; of all the places I enquired, the only two I found with vacancies were more expensive; one did not have ensuite bathroom facilities, and the other is not very well rated rated on TripAdvisor (unlike the Moevenpick, which has excellent reviews).Thanks to admin and users at betterbidding.com !
