This hotel was just perfect for my first trip to Amsterdam. Close to everything that I wanted to see (museums, trams: everything!) Staff was amazing, and the breakfast buffet each morning was fantastic and I cannot recommend that upgrade enough! Pure joy and a wonderful experience.

We had a double deluxe room and it was nice, clean and they offered room service as well. Both restaurants were lovely and we met a lot of people at both spots! It's centrally located so easy to get to everything - trams, buses, or just walking around town. So much to see and do - we really could not have been happier!

This property had lovely, clean, spacious rooms and was in a fab location. Just a 10 minute walk from Dam Square but plenty of shops, bars and restaurants around it also. Would recommend and definitely go back! ☺️ TIP: f your going to get a taxi to or from the airport to here, order an Uber because they are half the price of a taxi! 👍

We feel we were short changed twice by Clayton American. On the Expedia web site we booked an Executive Double room with 315 sq ft of space having stayed in one of these rooms on 3 previous occasions. However, on reaching our room (545) it was 215sq ft looking out at a workman’s shed. I suggested refunding the difference since room was fine, but accepted a complementary evening meal instead. However this was spoilt by a badly cooked steak and we were not charged by the restaurant (who were unaware of the complementary meal offer) because of this. However, this was treated as our complimentary meal on our departure with no recognition of the recompense for a smaller room. After 5 stays in this hotel over 6 or 7 years, sadly, we will not return. We suggest Expedia adjust the room descriptions to prevent other guests suffering smaller rooms than that booked/advertised. The staff in the restaurant and greeting guests on reception/ concierge were lovely.
