XO Hotels Blue Square

This one of the best hotels for customer service and hospitality and I have travelled around the Netherlands and stayed in a couple of hotels. The staff were amazing especially the first man we met who greeted us politely and with a lovely attitude really was great start to our trip !

And I would also like to mention how amazing the night staff are and how much they are under appreciated, met with one individual called Betty you can distinguish her from her many wonderful tattoos and her chill attitude she was talkative and helpful through the trip and although asked for verification every time she reminded us that this was done due to the safety of the other staff and people on the premises which reasonable ! She is such a great asset to the team

Another staff member id like to mention is Micheal who greeted every morning for breakfast he had a warming and amicable smile, and was very amusing also a great meme we of staff at this hotel !

I would definitely recommend staying here

A great service from the staff, very nice rooms and an easy-to-find location make of this hotel a really nice play to stay. For what you get out of you stay, it really is with the money. I suppose other hotels from this franchise/chain in Amsterdam are really good too but I really recommend this one specifically. They also have maps of the city and lots of discounts for a lot of activities and museums that are really good if you’re planning to stay a few days to visit Amsterdam.

I had a wonderful stay at XO Hotels Blue Square. The room was impressively spacious and impeccably clean, which made my stay all the more comfortable. It's evident that the hotel takes great pride in maintaining high standards of cleanliness. This attention to detail did not go unnoticed and contributed significantly to my positive experience. I look forward to returning in the future.

Clean and quiet hotel. 30 minutes to the center or to the airport, tram almost next door. Great, helpful staff. I really liked that in the room was a coffee machine. The coffee was delicious! Good shower. Room has AC and iron. I really enjoyed my stay!

Good
I liked location - close to several supermarkets, beautiful park, public transport
Good service
Overall the room is good and comfortable

I would stay here again for sure

Bad
I would recommend to improve cleaning especially the carpet cleaning

Excellent location, next to restaurants, supermarkets and easy access transportation 24/7. The outside design of the hotel is not very attractive but the interior is organized and neat. Friendly staff and good cleaning service. The benefit-cost is definitely the best feature here. You can have a simple but decent room with a desk, coffee machine, mini fridge, locker, clean towels, good shower, everything for a fair price

Friendly. helpful. clean. room serviced daily, bus n trams stop out front. cafes. bakery. fruit shops all around the block of the
XO BLUE SQUARE HOTEL
Prices very reasonable. Highly recommend to stay here and enjoy all the sights of Amsterdam. We travelled from Australia and seeing so much , then come back to our room, with clean towels. tea n coffee maching in room topped up. so lovely to relax when you arrive back to your room. thankyou all.

Clean, spacious rooms and the staff were extremely helpful and polite.

Nice hotel with good facilities. Best air conditioning to any hotel I've been to. Clean and comfy rooms. The beds were comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. They have a nice nespresso coffee machine in the room which is great to get hot water, coffee, tea etc. They have room service to clean room and refresh coffee tray. They have a secure parking space. Its 15 euros per day but it is worth it as locals were telling me cars are not safe to park on street, especially if it has foreign registration. There are restaurants and shops nearby for breakfast and a pub not so far away. You can get the bus or tram into Central Amsterdam. The tram stop is not too far away.
The hotel serves breakfast and there are vending machines as well. Overall, this is an excellent place to stay and I would recommend.

Great rooms, very cozy and comfortable with good air conditioning.
There is a mini refrigerator in the room as well as an espresso machine, cups, and tea bags.
The bathroom is nice and equipped with clean towels, shampoos and soaps.
Room services are available everyday.
Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Watch out for check in/out hours.
I arrived in the hotel for my check-in 20 minutes early (2:40 PM), and had to wait until 3 PM for my check-in (or else, I should've paid an extra 5€ for my early(!) check-in).
Overall, very satisfied with my experience.

Fairly quiet place, near the bus and tram stops. Can get you around most places and there are shops nearby to get your essentials. Very hospitable and helpful receptionists. Overall great experience.

The room was very spacious and well fournished. Friendly and helpfull staff,
a breakfast with a large choice of foods and beverages, and the possibility to luggage our begs freely also after the check-out completed the good service!
Public transport to reach the hotel very comfortable

Attention to detail, that's what really counts. The hotel décor, in both public areas and within the rooms, was perfectly and elegantly finished. It was a nice surprise having use of the fridge, the safe, the ironing board and iron at no extra cost. Superb shower! Friendly and professional staff, and good location for transport links and eateries. In short, excellent value.

Nice hotel nice room. Friendly staff very helpful. Food venues all around burgers chicken pizza and loads more. Is abit far away from central but just make sure you buy a travel pass once you reach airport, will take you everywhere you go from airport to Dam central and all around city, is just a hop on to No13 tram and will drop you off 100metres away

The location is very nice because the transportation opportunities are many, easy. There are lots of markets, shops around it. The rooms are well designed and very large. The stuff at the front desk is very helpful.

Amazing value for money place. Ten minutes away from the city center with the tram. Quiet neighborhood with lots of places for breakfast,lunch,dinner and coffee. The staff was really helpful and nice and the rooms were clean and big enough to be comfortable.

Big rooms, very clean and cozy too, The view from the window to the lake is wonderful! Staff very friendly. Here at the hotel you can rent your bike for 24 hours. The location is great, with supermarkets and restaurants close by and very well connected by tram to go downtown. 5 stars for price vs quality

I have posted on here before about this wonderful hotel and since I have again just stayed in it recently my opinion hasn't changed a bit. If you're looking for an affordable well run clean hotel look no further. Some might say it's a bit outside of the centre which is true but it's well connected with transport only minutes away including buses tram and metro. There are a number of XO hotels in Amsterdam all colour coded and I might try another next trip but I would happily stay here again.

very helpful and friendly receptionists, very good for its price

This hotel is perfect if you want to see A'dam on a budget!

It's very much like an A'dam Premier inn. The room was spotless and very comfortable for my partner and me.

The shower was amazing, we had a lovely coffee machine and a large tv. The hotel has really good Wifi, and we felt we had everything we needed and more for a really low price.

It is also a 5 min walk away from a tram stop that takes you directly into the city... defo one for any budget travellers!
