The hotel offers a decent location with a bus stop just a 2-minute walk away, making it convenient to access the city center. Plus, free parking is a nice bonus for those driving.

There are several downsides. Rooms can feel cramped, particularly the Comfort Twin Room, where the sinks might as well have been doll-sized and the shower had a tape job that looked like it was done by a Wookiee. The room cleanliness was questionable. A laundry towel was left on the bed and dirty cups were neglected by housekeeping. Wi-Fi is weak. Expect an uphill walk to the metro and a sketchy neighborhood vibe that’s less than reassuring. The night at 220-235€ feels steep for what you get. If you booked expecting a standard stay, prepare for disappointment.

Cramped bathroom made it hard to move, but the comfy bed was a plus.

perfect base for exploring amsterdam's highlights and parks

during my recent stay, I loved how just a 2-minute walk from the hotel took me to a bus stop that whisks you to the city center in about 10 minutes. There are lovely green spaces like Vliegenbos nearby for a relaxing stroll after a day of sightseeing.

We really enjoyed the location, just a quick stroll to the bus stop, but the room was a bit of a letdown—felt unclean and cramped. Chur for the comfy bed!

The location is quite convenient with a bus stop just a 2-minute walk away, which made getting to the city center easy. My bed was lovely and soft, a real highlight for a comfortable night’s sleep. Staff were helpful, frequently providing us with hot water for tea. there were several issues that definitely detracted from the stay. The room cleanliness left much to be desired. I found dust on surfaces and the shower gel looked like it had been repurposed shampoo. The fridge in the room had stains, which was unappetizing. The bathroom felt cramped, making it challenging to move around. The area around the hotel feels a bit sketchy and the walk to the metro isn’t the best, definitely not ideal for late-night returns. while the bed provided decent comfort, the room itself failed to meet the expectations.

I had a comfy Deluxe King Room with a massive bed and truly delightful dinner portions. the housekeeping was shockingly inconsistent.

Solid location with free parking and a pleasant terrace view. Loved the clean room and quick access to the city bus.

Had a comfy Beautiful King Room with a massive bed. The restaurant served very nice dinner portions, and it was great value! The location was spot on for easy access to the city.

The bathroom felt like a game of Twister-definitely cramped! Plus, the walk to the metro was less 'leisurely stroll' and more 'intense workout.

My stay at Bastion Hotel Amsterdam Noord was delightful, with clean facilities and friendly staff who went out of their way to help. The location was also convenient, with free parking and a bus stop just a two-minute walk away, allowing easy access to the city center.

the staff were super friendly and made me feel welcome. the free welcome drink was a nice touch after a long trip. also, the location is good with a bus stop close by for easy access to the city. the room was clean and had great air conditioning, which was a lifesaver. i enjoyed the terrace view too!

The area surrounding the Bastion offers wonderful amenities! It’s conveniently close to the metro station, making travels to the city center a breeze. Plus, I thoroughly enjoyed the generous dinner portions that were served, truly delightful. The staff even accommodated my request for a kettle after I arrived!

Unpleasant shower experience.

comfortable but had cleanliness issues

The staff were exceptionally accommodating and friendly during my stay. , I appreciated the incredible dinner portions from the onsite chef, providing great value compared to other local eateries. The location to central transport links made access to the city a breeze, and I relished the peaceful nearby green spaces for unwinding.

Some aspects of room cleanliness were disappointing.

It was just a decent option for a little getaway in Amsterdam with value for money. Free parking was a real plus, making it easy to explore the city without worrying about where to leave the car. Plan to take the metro more seriously since walking can be a hassle.

Wi-Fi was weak, but I loved the flat-screen TV in the room.
