Description


Location. The historic Die Port van Cleve Hotel is located in the city centre of Amsterdam, Holland, behind the Royal Palace on Dam Square. It's 400 metres to the Anne Frank House and Centraal Station.
Hotel Features. The Die Port van Cleve Hotel occupies the building where Heineken brewed their first beer in 1592. The hotel's interior features Delft tiles and oak beams. Staff at the 24-hour front desk can help with sightseeing trips to local attractions like the Royal Palace and Stock Exchange.

The Bodega De Blauwe Parade bar has been open since 1870, serving beers, cocktails and Dutch liqueurs. The room features wooden booths, Delft tiles and stained-glass windows. The informal Brasserie de Poort restaurant serves buffet breakfasts, and Dutch specialities and international favourites for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is popular for its juicy steaks and weekly jazz evenings. The de Hooiberg Bar, once part of the original Heineken brewery, serves drinks and light meals.

The Die Port van Cleve Hotel's conference room accommodates up to 45 people. The room offers a fireplace, wooden beams and city views. There's also a business centre with a computer and high-speed Internet access.

Guestrooms. The Die Port van Cleve Hotel's 120 guestrooms are decorated in blue, mustard and burgundy. Rooms feature dark wood furnishings, light walls and a separate seating area. Rooms offer satellite television, dial-up Internet access (surcharge) and in-room safes. Bathrooms have complimentary toiletries.

Expert Tip. There's excellent shopping in the elegant Magna Plaza, just across the road from the hotel. Originally the city's main post office, the mall offers four floors of shops and restaurants.

Fees:
Please note that a city tax, to be paid at check-out, may apply to this booking. This charge is not included in the rates.

Great hotel

We stayed in a standard double room for two nights. We had room 526. The room was clean and comfortable, but very small. The bed was also quite small as it was just a double. The hotel reception and outside looked fantastic and the service was exceptional. The reception staff even checked us in for our flights. Room service was expensive so we didn't order antying. We also didn't drink at the hotel bar as they didn't have any (if any?) beers on tap. These are just minor points, overall a comfortable hotel in a great location.

Depends what you are looking for....

Location is fantastic, a great base to go out and explore. However if you are looking to spend a large quantity of time in the room you may be disappointed. Had a 'superior twin', main room was very cramped and quite dated in decor, the two single beds pushed together and not much space to walk around them! However the bathroom was immaculate, very clean and modern. On a positive note the main room itself was very clean, lovely sheets on the bed and a flat screen TV. However a window (knee height to ceiling) opened to revel a large drop, no safety latches etc. The hotel looked impressive, with extremely helpful staff. The bar and restaurant was very pricey, but there's much more choice in walking distance from the hotel.

Fantastic - would stay again

For a European hotel, the room was good size. Everything was clean, fairly new and all was in good working order. The desk staff/concierge were fluent in English and could easily recommend restaurants and provide directions. The hotel is in walking distance of the train station, 10 minutes maybe and there are 3 tram lines that stop right in front of the hotel. The only thing I would not do is eat breakfast at the hotel. It was very expensive and there are pleny of cozy cafes within a couple of blocks.

Not good enough

Although most of the Hotel is lovely with high levels of service from pleasant members of staff the rooms are no way near 4* quality. Everything seemed old and dated and in room wireing was extremely dangerous. Recently stayed in a 3* Tulip inn which was of a far superior quality and at 1/3rd of the price!!

Not Impressed

I stayed in Die port Van Hotel in a business trip to Amsterdad last week, I had to change room 3 times all the rooms were in very bad condition, the walls, the carpet, I could't lock my door it was a problem with it. The only good thing of the hotel was the locaton apart of that nothing else. I don't recommend this hotel.
