The quad room at Hotel City Garden was in the basement, offering a less than ideal stay for my family. The service was a mix of intrusions and friendliness, making it an average experience overall.

The hotel is located within walking distance to the city center, perfect for those who prefer a quieter setting. The rooms are nicely decorated with a modern design, clean, and tidy, although they tended to be cold even with the heating on. The staff are lovely, extremely helpful with tips for nearby places, and the good breakfast makes for a pleasant stay. However, some rooms are small and lack windows, impacting the overall experience.

The hotel is situated in a wonderful location, near major museums, a lovely park, and public transportation. The rooms were nice and clean with a slight safety concern due to low windows. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the dining experience was ordinary. The location stands out as the best feature of this property.

Although the rooms were very small and not very practically furnished, my stay was enjoyable overall with spacious and cozy accommodations featuring a large TV and en-suite. The service, while not outstanding, did include helpful recommendations for transportation options. The hotel's prime location near the main museums and transportation was a major highlight. The dining options were basic but satisfactory. Overall, the hotel provided good value for the money.

The hotel has a great location, close to the canals and old town, making it ideal for exploring Amsterdam. The rooms are clean and comfortable, suitable for a short stay despite being small for a family of four. The service was a bit cold at times, but there were standout staff members. Dining options could use improvement, and the breakfast lacked variety. The proximity to key attractions and transportation links makes up for any shortcomings.

The hotel was decently priced at 125 euros for two nights, but the rooms in the basement with small windows and extremely small beds were not ideal. The service seemed helpful and friendly, although there were some issues with the staff not properly cleaning the bathroom and appearing unhappy. The location was the highlight, being close to the park and Leidseplein, with a comfy bed and nice view from the second floor. Overall, the hotel had some positives but also some drawbacks to consider.

I loved staying at this hotel as it was conveniently located right next to Vondelpark. The rooms were very nice and cozy, but I have to admit they were super tiny, especially for the price paid. The service was excellent overall, with a very welcoming and attentive staff. The location couldn't have been better, just a few minutes from Vondelpark and Museumplein. The dining options were decent, although I wish there were more choices. The facilities were good, but some areas could use a bit of improvement.
