Hotel nhow Amsterdam RAI

My stay at nhow Amsterdam RAI was truly wonderful and exceeded my expectations in many ways. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed, offering a lovely view of the city. The architecture of the building itself is quite unique, which made the entire experience feel refreshing and different from the usual hotel stays I’ve had in the past. One of the highlights of my visit was the breakfast buffet. The variety was impressive, everything was fresh, and the quality was excellent. However, the absolute standout feature — the real deal-breaker in the best way — was the orange juice machine. I have travelled to many countries, but I have genuinely never had oranges as big, fresh, and flavourful as the ones served here. It felt like the perfect start to the morning and honestly became the cherry on the cake of my entire stay. The hotel’s restaurant is also beautifully decorated with a warm and ambient atmosphere, offering a good selection of dishes. I particularly appreciated the complimentary coffee available downstairs for guests, which is such a thoughtful and welcoming gesture. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at nhow Amsterdam RAI. A memorable, comfortable, and beautifully managed hotel. Highly recommended.

I had a wonderful stay at the NH Hotel in Amsterdam. The service was excellent from start to finish, and the staff made me feel truly welcomed. A special highlight of my visit was meeting Chef Paul Vincent. He was incredibly friendly, very knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the dishes, the flavors, and all the ingredients in detail. As someone with allergies, I really appreciated how careful and attentive he was. He made sure everything was safe for me to eat and that I felt comfortable and well taken care of. Overall, it was a fantastic experience great service, delicious food, and exceptional care. Highly recommended will visit back soon!

I had a room on 22nd floor with amazing view to Amsterdam city center. Hotel is very well located on South Amsterdam next to highway, tram stop, bus stop and metro station which have a connection with city center. Room was silent and clean with very comfy double bed. 3 sizes of pillows which allow you to have a very good sleep. For "go green" approach you get free drink. Hotel's employees are very nice and helpful. I could extend my visit for a few hours partially free of charge due to my flight was at the evening. Breakfast is nice with big variety of dishes. Scramble eggs was done from eggs not powder. Fresh orange juice machine and fresh made waffles are in place. I highly recommend this hotel.

My 80-year-old grandmother could run this front desk better I booked a Premium high-floor room with a bathtub, not a standard room, so I expected a certain level of service from a four-star hotel. I originally booked two nights (Friday & Saturday). During check-in on Friday, I requested to extend my stay by one more night (Sunday). The front desk took an unusually long time to process this, charged me over €300 including city tax, and confirmed the extension. During this process, the staff kept my residence permit and forgot to return it with my room key. I had to be called back downstairs later by another staff member to retrieve my ID. Already a very unprofessional start. On Sunday afternoon, I returned to the hotel — and my key card no longer worked for the elevator. When I went to the front desk for help, the staff asked me: “Have you checked in?” I had already stayed two nights and fully paid for the extra night. This level of disorganization and incompetence is shocking for a four-star hotel. Poor system handling, poor communication, and zero professionalism. Small room. Unacceptable experience. Would not recommend.

My favourite hotel in the country! Never had a bad experience here. Convenient location next to two subway stops (if you come from Amsterdam Central Station, just get out at Europaplein instead of switching at Amsterdam Zuid). The breakfast is superb! The staff is super helpful and accommodating. Even congratulated my partner on his birthday! We will definitely be back!

The room was very welcoming with a great view, the breakfast buffet was perfect. All the staff was welcoming and helpful, the surprise package is an extra plus! The hotel was pretty booked I would say, still in the rrom we heard no neighbours or anything and had our peace. All in all a beautiful stay! The Location is right next to the metro and the RAI, to Centraal from the room with the metro in under 15 minutes. Room was clean, toilet was clean, lobby was clean. We booked in advance and didnt expect such a good and perfect hotel for the price we have paid.

Great cost-benefit in Amsterdam. Really easy to acess by metro and train. Easy to go ta another cites, like Utrecht, for example. The room are amazing. The shower has great water pressure, ensuring a relaxing shower. The bed is very comfortable and the sheets are soft. The breakfast is the rightlight, it is excellent, I loved it, one of the best I've ever had. Every time I visit Amsterdam, I stay at this hotel.

Close to city center and most importantly, excellent service provided by the staff especially Tunde at the reception! A huge thank you to Tunde at reception for her kindness and understanding when I requested a room change in the middle of the night at 2am. I faced some discomfort with the original room, and she accommodated my request with patience, professionalism, and care despite the late hour. Her help made me feel comfortable and well taken care of, really appreciate it :) Highly recommend this hotel!

Interesting not to say stunning architecture by Reinier de Graaf. The hotel was overall a good place to stay despite it not being near the center. But the metro made it actually very easy. The check-in was terrible as I had a confirmed upgrade and a confirmed early check-in but guess what: an early check-in for the upgrade did not exist. The ultimate room was very nice, spacious, well designed, comfortable bed. The including morning breakfast had a lot of items but nothing was particularly outstanding. Alltogether, it was a good place to stay and a place associated with wonderful memories.

I had the pleasure of staying in this Art project turned hotel recently. The architecture is quite something, as are many buildings in Amsterdam. Our group of 50 booked it out, and the entire hotel is quite beautiful. Centrally located across from the Convention Center and near the Metro, we found it very convenient for our four day stay. The staff were friendly, and efficient checking our group in on the second floor; brilliant. The rooms are interesting: long hallway into a room with two single beds right next to one another. There were two of us (women) and it was a bit cozy. There are many amenities: including a lovely espresso machine to start the day before you head up to the 17th floor, gorgeous view for a spectacular breakfast buffet. The staff are very friendly, but if you don't tell them while you are away from the table gathering more goodies they will clear your table in a blink. Happened to me twice, before I got wise. The buffet includes everything you could hope or imagine for breakfast which is my favorite meal of the day. A waffle bar, granola bar, glass shelves display of charcuterie, English breakfast complete with scrambled eggs, beans, tomatoes and sausages. Two capuchino stations, one completely plant based, and you can make as many as you like. If you prefer to take food with you, that is an option as well. The hotel has a restaurant, and a lovely bar. Food at the restaurant has a limited menu but there are many eateries near by to choose from for dinner. My only comment to improve my stay I would have liked to have had a luggage rack as my large suitcase had to go on the floor. This is a boutique hotel I don't think most of their guests bring a great deal of luggage. The bathroom was beautiful with a raindrop shower in a wonderful glass enclosed area. You need to utilize the door to the hallway if you want to keep the water in the shower. Lots of warm comfy towels are available if you ask for them. There is also a towel warmer on the wall. Nice touch. I am not completely sure how this hotel compares price wise with others but its uniqueness in decor makes it stand out. For artist enthusiasts be sure to check out the second floor; lots of places to sit and enjoy your stay while enjoying the decor.

The hotel was clean, beds comfortable. Would not have been my first choice of a hotel to stay in to see the sites in Amsterdam. Its a very modern looking hotel with lots of concrete and glass. It's not in an area thats close to anything fun in Amsterdam. Its basically inside a triangle of highways. I could hear cars inside my room. It seems like more a business persons hotel. Not many food choices close by and the hotel restaurants aren't anything I would return to. If you want to enjoy Amsterdam stay in the city center, I wish we had.

The nhow is a great business hotel, convenient to the RAI convention center, Zuid business area, and Metro stations. Part of the nh chain, the decor here is an eclectic Asian and Latino mix. Nice modern rooms. But here are my complaints: 1) beside the wonderful breakfast buffet that ends at 10:30 AM there are NO FOOD options until 6 PM when the dinner place opens. Walking distance to food offsite is several blocks away. 2) WiFi is so weak it is barely useable. 3) the only content on TV is news, and only three are in English but no CNN 4) there are no streaming services on TV 5) the toilet is blocked by the bathroom counter. I can't surf the net on the toilet. But WiFi sucks anyway, so why bother? It's a great place for a business trip, if you don't plan to spend much time in your room. But for tourists, you might want to search other nh hotel options in the city.

I miss traveling, and I miss Amsterdam. I haven't been traveling lately because of the Pandemic, so I am practicing social distancing. One of the hotels I have stayed at was the Hotel Nhow Amsterdam in the Netherlands. I love this hotel. Very modern and artsy. The hotel is okay since there's a lot of restaurants and grocery stores. I prefer to stay downtown, but the hotel is close to the train station. The staff is professional and friendly, and the rooms are clean.

I was a guest at nhow Amsterdam for 4 days and I had an excellent stay! The hotel has a great uplifting, modern vibe. The lounge is decorated with bright colors of furniture and gorgeous wall murals. The front desk staff, (especially Roji) is so sweet and helpful. It was Roji that checked me in and out and she went above and beyond when it came to helping me with getting my Covid test. My room was comfortable and clean. I turned down housekeeping an because of that, nhow rewards their guest with a coupon for 2 free drinks at the bar. I received 3 coupons so that's 6 free drinks! The bartender was great and even gave me free pinapple and orange slices. The hotel is conveniently located a 5 minute walk to the metro and the train station which gets you to the airport. I loved my room view on the 21st floor. Another perk of staying here is the free candy and the front entrance! Every time I got off the metro and saw the hotel just a few feet away always made me feel reassured and welcomed. I knew I was walking back into a place of comfort and as a solo traveler I felt safe. I would definitely return and highly recommend!

This hotel is perfect for attending functions at RAI. If you plan to spend more time at Central Amsterdam, it is a bit of a walk... the rooms are smaller, but functional. The breakfast buffet is good and has a lot of variety. The elevator bank is confusing, but after a couple days you get used to it.

I was staying at the nhow for a conference, and it was in a great location - walking distance to the conference center and near public transit. There is a train that takes you to and from the airport directly outside of the hotel which was super convenient. The hotel itself has nice elevators and a good amount so you're never waiting around. There is a small help yourself convenient store that also sells alcohol for those times the bar is closed. If you refuse room cleaning any day, you get a free drink voucher. The most amazing aspect of this hotel is by far the breakfast. There are tons of options that are super quality. Bread and cheeses and olives / meats / etc., croissants, waffle station, yogurt station, donuts, other cakes and pies, fruit, English breakfast (beans, sausage, eggs, and mushrooms. There is a great variety of fresh juice, and champagne or vodka for any particular morning beverages. There is also fruit infused water and a coffee machine. I would stay here again just to have the breakfast.

I go to Amsterdam regularly and stayed in this hotel January 2020 within the first week of it opening for a work trip with a long group. It is one of the top ones I stayed at. Overall the group said we'd go back. What I liked: 1. Rooms were nice, nice location, and good views. 2. Breakfast was good with fresh squeezed orange juice, made to order omelets, and nice view on the 17th floor. 3. Good value - nice clean, fresh hotel. Friendly staff. 4. Places to eat, and a bowling alley in walking distance. What I didn't like: 1.They had multiple "pocked gyms" on three different floors, but I would have liked a larger gym so we could work out together. 2. I thought the towels were not soft and a bit rough. 3. The elevators were fast, but didn't always take my key scan to get to my floor. I am guessing it is an opening issue. 4. My colleagues were surprised the bar closed at 11am

Inside the stacked triangular wedges of noted architecture firm OMA's assertive three-part form, every detail of the rooms is thoughtful, from the subtle, damask-patterned wall coverings to the round carpet under the bed. The smallest rooms are just the right size, with a desk large enough for a laptop and guidebooks and a lounge chair for taking in the views through the floor-to-ceiling windows. There is no extraneous art on the walls, and no art is needed, since every surface is interesting, whether mirrored, textured, or wood. With its flattering lighting, the bathroom features a first-rate rain shower head and unusual but intuitive controls, and the heated mirror doesn't fog up. The only drawbacks are, if you're on the 18th or 19th floor, minor sound transmission of voices from the restaurant terrace below. But nighttime sleep was totally quiet. Elevators are plentiful and fast. The approach from the north is anything but quaint, and elevated roadway obscures the first experience of the dynamic form; it would be improved by removal of the hundreds of cigarette butts in the joints between the brick walkway and by re-thinking the mediocre landscaping. But the convenience to the M52 subway at Europaplein and the Sprinter to and from Schiphol at the RAI station--only two stops away!--makes the location exceptionally convenient, and at 1/3 the cost of comparable options a bit closer in, nhow is a fine choice for a visit to Amsterdam.

As a US-based corporate event planner, this is my go-to hotel for all groups attending conferences at RAI Amsterdam. Attendees rave about the cleanliness, creative decor + proximity to the convention center. Highly recommended -- I must give Cindy a shoutout -- she is a joy to work with + saved the day for one of my clients. I look forward to my future stays here.
