Really great hotel, fab location just by a metro station (1 stop from Johan Cruyff ArenA and about 10/15 mins into the center) lovely helpful staff, clean and modern rooms. We didn’t have breakfast but there were vending machines which came in handy on our trip. Would definitely stay again!

Cleaning staff did a good job everyday on the room!
Travelling to Amsterdam to see a concert at the arena. Joy hotel is one metro stop away, perfect location. Same metro takes you directly downtown in 25 minutes. Clean room and no noise. We had a three person room, all beds were good, and had good space around them which is seldom. Did not try the breakfast. Only minus is the deposit that was still reserved on my card three days after check out.
Great location for walking distance to the ArenA or AFAS Live. Metro/train stations very close by. Only issues were noise, the doors being quite heavy caused a lot of slamming noises at night, including the doors to the stairwells which were often in use because the elevators were having issues. The staff member who greeted us was very friendly and nice. There isn’t much else around the area in terms of dining or otherwise because it’s outside the central area but it was worth it for us to avoid the busy crowds and trains after a concert.
This place looks new, however, there are some items that were nonfunctional, including door, locking mechanism, taps, light, fixtures, etc.
When using the stairs, please be aware of the doors being very heavy, and when they close, making a loud booming sound, waking any of the other guests in the hotel if it is not closed softly
With about a 800 m walk, you will have access to lots of restaurants and stores for your convenience during your stay. Also, the national train station is a short walk in the same direction.
Great little business hotel. However, it is surrounded by construction works and it can get too muddy to push a suitcase with ease. Clean rooms; would benefit from some having freeze dried coffee sachets in addition to a small assortment of teas, plus sugar sachets.
Overall great stay! I expect a lot worse but it was quiet, despite the constructions happening around the building. Room was comfortable and well equipped, bathroom was also good, towels were nice and thick, bed comfortable. Daily house keeping was done well.
Because of the constructions the walk from the metro was a bit difficult especially with a suitcase, you had to drag through some dirt, but otherwise all good! I’d stay again.
Close by to restaurants, metro and Ziggo Dome which is why I was there. Got an upgrade on my room from a single to a triple unprompted which was great. Hotel has vending machines and is in a quiet area.
Fairly comfortable bed but a bit noisy. Able to hear people in other rooms and doors banging etc. Not much in the local area but 5 mins from metro. Better than most hotels in the centre so represents good value if you don't mind commuting.
My stay was overall ok! decent for the price I paid. I didn't like the fact that they didn't disclose that they were roadworks outside the hotel so the roads were closed and we had to walk all around it.
Breakfast was decent. the ladies there we very friendly! the receptionist was more than helpful and polite.
the room was decent. i expected a twin bed but I got a single. the mattress was ok but it was moving off the bed a lot. i couldn't use the kettle because there was rusty. room was decent and clean.
Property was about a 2-hour walk from Central Rail station. So you will have to get to know the transit. But M54 train will take you directly to and back from City Central Rail and then everything else is in walking distance. Hotel was clean and except for a few slamming doors and people coming in at 2:00 a.m. in the morning it was very quiet. The stuff was very helpful. I plan on staying here again in the near future and I would recommend this property although it is a little bit overpriced but this is Amsterdam after all and everything here is expensive

Ok for a night or 2
Stayed here 5years ago and now, yesterday. The beds are still hard. The only negative thing about the room really. 😊 If you are going to a concert (ziggo dome, afas live) or a match (ajax), this is a perfect place to stay if you dont want to bother with transport to and from Amsterdam city. There is a cinema 10min away, same as shopping area etc. I enjoy coming back here when going to a concert. Have many fond memories from staying here! Never had any issues 😊 More than 3 nights and your whole body hurts though..so if you like comfy beds. Try somewhere else 😅 very quite here!!
Nice location, near metro and train. Mainly office buildings around. About 1km walk away there is a mall with lots of shops, restaurants, a movie theater and supermarkets. Comfortable bed and well air conditioned room. A small fridge in the room is a big plus too. Room cleaned every day.
