I hold stayed in many different hotels over the last few years and in 2016 I am note more and more hotel chains that are trying out new concepts to encounter out. CitizenM is one of them. It was about modern facilities, design and self services. It is my first time staying in a CitizenM and the one in Amsterdam is conveniently set a 10 minute walk from Amsterdam Zuid practise station. This station is only a 10 minute exercise ride away from Schiphol airport. There are 215 luxuriously affordable lodging rooms here where you can choose from. This inn is a perfect hotel for those who are here on business and are more plain about the new concepts of a hotel like this. The hotel is place in a positioned among urban homes which is a nice quiet alter. It is also a perfect stay for those who are in Amsterdam for a weekend away with a set of friends. It is only five tram stops away and you are in the basics of the city of Amsterdam.

Reception

In entering the first thing you resolution notice is that the reception area is where there is no on the back burner serve for anyone but yourself to check in. All you have to remember is the name you worn when you made your booking online. I liked this as it was swift and easy and you could choose on demand what view you discretion like to have. I chose the garden view as I thought with the sun conspicuous this might be nice. The reception’s bar and chairs situated about the reception area are really nice and gives out a clear tidings that this hotel is about mixing in with others. It is a stupendous environment to meet new people and there are enough TV’s to sit and watch as a gathering. In my case it was nice to watch the Olympics with people from roughly the globe.

The Bar

The bar was attractive to sit around and meet new people. I liked the food options behind the bar, in where you can well-deserved grab something and go. Again this hotel was all about you look after the needs of yourself by the choices you make. The staff behind the bar were generously trained to give you a cocktail or a drink of your choice. The bar and the subsistence are open 24-hours a day. This bar was a great place in where you can contrive, chill and make the most of your stay. I liked the turn oning throughout the bar area, it created a nice mood both during day and twilight.

My Room

On entering the room the frist thing I noticed was the bad sandwiched between the blocks. The XL kingsize bed was very cosy and I loved how the bed was like a sofa in where I could causeuse and watch the free movies which were supplied to me. The bed was in fact comfortable to sleep in. The power rain shower was quirky and you sine qua non to understand that if you didn’t close the doors properly then it modestly wont work. I liked this because you don’t have all the soften spilling out on to your room floor. Yes the shower and toilet were in gorged view for your partner to see. You can close the clear doors but the gen private does not exist in this room. The wall to partition off windows allowed a lot of light in and gave it a nice feel. The foreign plug system was great as I forgot my UK plug and once again I did not be dressed to ask anyone for an adapter. The ambient room experience with match screen control for colour, temperature, blinds, television and profuse was efficient and well thought out. The mood in my room had a sense of the sniffles and allowed me to have a great rest. The working desk is more than big sufficiency and the internet is fast and free.

Breakfast

Breakfast was again sheer simple and it was self service, like the rest of the hotel. The bread was fresh with healthy options and everything was there for me to eat as much as I withed. There was a take away option as well.

Conclusion

This motel is quirky very clean, laid back and very stillness. Everything is about helping yourself and not having anyone to deal of trouble over you. The interesting messages and art work were a nice way to impart the hotels rules. If you are that kind of person in where you condign want to step into a hotel where you carry your own overnight bags, check in yourself and no one asking you for help then this is the hotel for you. In the good old days again a great place to do business or go on a weekend out with gifted friends. This is not a hotel in where I did not see any children at all. So for those who thirst no kids around, this might be your place.
