Staff could have been more helpful and attentive. I was attending a trade show and it was exceptionally busy due it to being so close to RAI but all staff were unphased and delivered such consistent high standard service. We didn’t have breakfast / dinner in the hotel but did go to the rooftop cocktail bar.
The hotel's location was absolutely fantastic, offering both convenience and charm. Every aspect of its decor exudes world-class elegance, creating a truly exceptional atmosphere. The service was impeccable, and the room we stayed in was one of the finest we've ever experienced. The staff was warm, attentive, and highly professional, enhancing our stay even further. Without a doubt, whenever we plan to visit Amsterdam again, this hotel will be our first choice.
We had a fantastic stay at nHow. It's a beautiful, clean and modern hotel. It's in a great location that lets you get away from the tourist crowds but is right next to the metro that gets you right into the action in no time. Would absolutely recommend and stay here next time we are in Amsterdam
The staff were friendly and helpful, especially the staff in the lounge. Stash was especially helpful. He provided us with directions on using the Metro and gave some recommendations on dining. I would most definitely recommend nhow Amsterdam RAI to my family and friends.
I am writing to formally address the concerning behavior of your front desk staff during our check-in process A tall, slender male staff member handled our registration with unprofessional conduct that significantly impacted our first impression of your establishment.
**Key Issues:**
1. **Negligence in Service:** We explicitly provided **two passports** and verbally confirmed **two separate rooms**. Despite this, only one room was processed initially.
2. **Derogatory Attitude:** Upon politely correcting the error, the staff member responded with a dismissive tone, sarcastic remarks and visibly contemptuous body language.
3. **Offensive Gesture:** The interaction concluded with the staff member making an intentionally provocative hand gesture
I had an incredible experience staying at the Nhow Hotel. I was placed on the 21st floor, and the views were absolutely stunning—definitely added to the wow factor of the hotel. The room was very spacious with a large, super comfy bed. I really appreciated the complimentary water in the fridge, and housekeeping came in to clean after just one night—great attention to detail! Also got complimentary slipper/flip flops.
The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating throughout my stay, which made it all the more enjoyable. The hotel had a premium feel overall and was perfectly located for getting into Amsterdam city centre.
One of the highlights was renting bikes directly from the hotel. They’re located just outside, making it super convenient. While the bikes aren’t anything fancy, they did the job and gave us a real sense of freedom and confidence getting around the city. It was a really handy and fun way to explore Amsterdam.
The only downside was that the TV wasn’t a smart TV, so I couldn’t connect my phone or stream anything—but that’s a minor issue compared to everything else the hotel offers.
All in all, I would definitely recommend Nhow Hotel and would love to stay again!
The Europaplein metro station is just a 6-minute walk from the hotel. From there, you can take Metro Line 52 (North-South Line) directly to Amsterdam Centraal Station. The journey takes approximately 10–15 minutes and trains run frequently throughout the day.
