Top The Whale Hotel Reviews

Poppies

10/10 Excellent

"The room was small (as expected) but so cozy! We found ourselves struggling getting over the jet lag because we wanted to stay holed in our room. The AC one night had an error over night and wasn’t cooling but went away in the morning, after researching seems the error was “an obstruction was blocking the outer fan” so a bird maybe made a home in the wrong spot overnight. The Cafe food was very delicious and had great egg options for breakfast, didn’t try the dinner though but going off what we had in the morning I’m sure it’s just as delicious. I would recommend this stay to friends in the future and the community around poppies is a great place to explore and has many other great food options!"

Mövenpick Hotel Amsterdam City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The Mövenpick in downtown Amsterdam is in a good spot for walking to many dining and entertainment spots. The check-in was easy with Nikos being very professional. We had dinner in the Dock 11 restaurant on site and Henrique along with Sandra the manager gave us a great experience. The rooms are super clean and the elevators all worked! A great experience was had at the hotel."
