Best Western Blue Tower

This hotel is located close to Amsterdams ring road, so it is within easy reach for those with their own transport. However, it is also very easily accessible on public transport from the airport and city centre. The hotel itself is surrounded by fast food restaurants and a large shopping centre.
This is a brand new hotel in Amsterdam and offers great value for money. It comes highly recommended.

This is a modern, purpose-built block, with a very blue exterior, giving the hotel its name.
As this property only opened in June 2007, the bedrooms are in very good condition. They are all medium- to large-sized with cherry wood furniture, flat screen televisions and artwork on the walls. The bathrooms are modern and also in very good condition with black marble sinks, beige tiles and glass shower screens. All have both power showers and hand held showers and all have a bath, except the double rooms, which have very large power showers. There are safety deposit boxes large enough for laptops as well as air conditioning in all rooms, but there are no mini bars. Most twin rooms consist of two beds pushed together. All rooms are non smoking.
The lobby is very large and impressive with white faux leather seating, various other forms of seating, a black and white tiled floor and very attractive ceiling lighting that constantly changes colour. In the near future, a bar will be incorporated into this area but at the time of writing, this was not yet completed.
The restaurant is located on the first floor and serves breakfast only. Group meals are available upon request. It is a very large and spacious area with cherry wood furniture, large windows and a large, modern, buffet area.
