XO Hotels Blue Square

I was satisfied with my stay. First of all staff were very friendly and helpful. Add to that I was able to do an early check in with small charge which was ok for me. I liked the location very much and I think I was lucky. Very dynamic location surrounded with every thing you need. Small shopping mall, grocery, barbers, many many restaurants specially halal ones turkish and Arabic, dessert shop. For smokers they provide shisha. People gathers evening to eat and smoke. Place is very safe And close to beautiful small parks. Very easy access to the hotel from the airport and from hotel to city center. Taking bus 369 from Airport will drop you in front of the hotel. Going to city center it will take 5 min by bus 369 to station sloterdecjk then 5 min by train to Central Station. Rooms are not brandnew but clean and comfortable. Coffee machine and capsules were added daily. Sure I. Would go back again

The three-bed room was very spacious, with three beds, four chairs, a table, and a big wardrobe. The bathroom shower and tub were terrific. The price is also very competitive for the Amsterdam area. You can also book breakfast with a discount if you pay for it at reception at least 24h in advance. The room also had an ironing board, a vanity kit, and a sawing kit which came in handy. Our room was looking into an inner courtyard, so it was very quit as well. Some of the rooms look on a nearby lake, some on the street. So, it is a bit of a luck of a draw, but the soundproofing seemed adequate. The hotel is very well connected with the city centre (two trams and a bus) as well as with an airport via the 369 bus (with which you can get to the airport with a regular GVB card). There are also many shops and restaurants all around the hotel. The hotel only has three floors, but it still has a lift, which my elder guests would definitely appreciate.

Location was well connected by trams or busses but it still took some time to the city centre compared to some other parts of the city that are closer to metro. The hotel was really nice and staff very hospitable. Process of check in and check out is automated, but there is always someone that can assist. There were lots of supermarkets and really well equipped shopping centre near by. Cosy cafe by the kinda lake-like canal bx the back side of the hotel. We had enough of towels, and coffee and tee were regularly added. They also offer toiletries with pleasant smell. And I liked that we had three chairs and quite spacious room for three beds.

The room was very spacious and had lots of places to storage your stuff. You get a towel change every day and there’s lots of available toiletries. The room had a mini fridge, a safe and a coffee maker. You get to the hallway with rooms using your room key card so it felt really safe, even late at night. The location is pretty good for the money, there’s a direct bus from the airport to the hotel (around a 30 minute drive) and you can easily get to the city center using trams (a little less than 30 minutes). The staff is very kind and helpful, they speak English really good so the communication isn’t a problem.

The triple room on the first floor was great. Renovated and very clean. I really appreciate the investment done in the bathroom. High quality products and really confy futniture. Self-check-in/out machines were working perfectly fine. Same with the parking fee machine. The location is also great since there is a direct bus to the airport and a couple of tram lines to the city center.
