"Central location"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 6, 2012
The Convent Hotel is located on one of the main streets in Amsterdam and within easy walking distance to the Centraal Train station and Dam Square-so public transportation is a snap. The hotel is well kept and the staff is very friently. The one complaint about the staff is that they do not seem very knowledgeable about typical tourist activities in Amsterdam and we didn't find a concierge staff member to help with some of our questions. Our booking through hotels.com did not include the breakfast, which looked wonderful and was expensive, so we found a lovely little care within a block or two from the hotel for our breakfasts. Lots of tours seem to use the hotel, so the staff is very comfortable speaking in English with everyone.The entrance to the hotel faces the very busy street, but the rooms are all in the back of the hotel and are very quiet. We enjoyed our stay. I would suggest trying to get the breakfast included in the hotel price.

"Easy walk to must see sights"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
The hotel was clean, nice, the staff friendly and helpful, especially the Concierge. The location was great, within walking distance of many restaurants, and things to see in Amsterdam.

see all hotels in Aalsmeer"Great Experience"
I have stayed at the Chariot before and came back because it was convenient, clean and hospitable. The hotel is near the airport so there is noise during the morning and afternoon departure and arrival times. The rooms are very nice, all have a small refrigerator and a mini bar. The restaurant and bar are wonderful and the service in both is outstanding. […] There are other restaurants within walking distance that are also very good. The hotel is convenient to mass transit and if you have an auto is close to Aalsmeer and the flower market, Hoofdrop Harleem and Amsterdam. Alkmar is about 30 minutes north and Den Hag is 1.5 hours to the south. The hotel provides free parking and internet access. The parking can get a little tight when there is an event at the business next door. For the business traveler with an auto the Chariot is a great option. Read more
The Chariot is clean and updated.No fancy accomidations. Service varied with the person at the front desk. It's located near the airport, so close it felt like you were on the run way . Neighborhood is clean but not many places to eat or drink nearby. The hotel resturaunt food was tasty, small portions, for moderate prices. It takes 2 buses 20 minutes […] a piece to get into the downtown area where the attractions are. Read more

"Hotel near Schipol Airport"
It was about 5 miles from the airport...Not a bad hotel shuttle ride...Very clean hotel. Public computer in lobby for guests was handy for flight checkin
"A very nice, quiet small hotel"
Not only was the hotel exceptionally clean, quiet, and attractive, but it also had an excellent dining room. We ate two dinners there, and they were gourmet quality. I rate this hotel very highly even though it is not really convenient to the airport or shops.
"superb"
Very helpful staff. Just a wonderful hotel.
Hotels.com description mentions guest have access to airport shuttle but the hotel charges for this.
"The Hotel Chariot"
I needed a place to seep for one night near the Schiphol Airport. The website tells that the Hotel Chariot is 2.4 miles = 3.7 km from the airport. But the actual driving distance is about 15 km, (10 miles) from the airport. 2.4 miles could be the direct line from the airport to the hotel. I was quite disappointed.
"Chariot in Amsterdam"
Wonderful place, very comfortable, friendly staff. I was impressed with the quality of my room. About 10 minutes from airport by free shuttle.
"Close to the airport, not Amsterdam"
This hotel was a pleasant surprise! The room was modern, clean, and comfortable. We took the train from Centraal Station to the airport after a day of sightseeing, and their hotel shuttle picked us up there (no charge). When we left the next morning, the shuttle took us back to the airport at no charge (and even added in a windmill detour at our request!). […] If you want to stay in the midst of Amsterdam, this is not convenient, but if you want a quiet break, I highly recommend the Chariot. Read more
"Avoid this one unless you have a car"
This hotel is not correctly advertised. It is not 3 miles from the airport. It is actually 12KM which is about a 30 euro fee for a taxi. The shuttle is 15 euros each way and is not readily available. The staff is not available at check in or check out. I had to wait for a long time. In conclusion, If you don't have a car expect to spend alot on shuttle […] payments each way. They also charge a tax of 3.5. euro per room, per person, per night. It is in the middle of nowhere so if you need to get food or walk around, there is not much to see. There are much better hotels near schipol if you need to be near the airport. This was by far the biggest mistake i made in selecting a hotel. Read more

"Beware"
1. Site says "Free shuttle from airport to hotel" That is true but you pay 5 euros to go back to the airport. 2. Hotel does not have a lift. They are in the process of adding one. Did not help us with our handicap son who is in a manual wheelchair. 3. Found out that the breakfast is not included in the room price which is not standard in Europe. Price […] quoted should have mentioned this. Other than that, it is fine. But it is not a wheelchair friendly place at this time. Read more
"Friendly staff"
Clean and comfortable room for our family of 4. Free wifi was good, and reception staff were very friendly and attentive. Restaurant was ok but both meat dishes ordered were undercooked. It was just an overnight stay before going to see the Tulips, but we were happy with our choice.
"Nice stay.."
This hotel was very comfortable for us.. not too far from the airport.. easy to find.. and the staff were very friendly and professional.. The best thing I found was, we checked out early in the morning (4:00) and the staff over there were offerring a free Airport drop.. (ofcourse I was having a rental car with me) Only one concern is .. Minibar should […] have more options especially more water :) Room comfort was good.. and the furniture inside the room was impressive.. I would say this is upto my standards...if I go again.. I would prefer this hotel again.. Cheers, Praveen. Read more

Small friendly place, nice rooms, great restaurant. On the downside is some noise from air planes landing and taking off during the day - no noise at night, perhaps that runway was not used during the night. The wifi internet is free and fast, but coverage a bit weak in some rooms. Could need an upgrade. Recommended.
"Hotel Chariot - A MUST for all things floral!"
I specifically booked this hotel because it was close to the Boerma Institute, Aalsmeer and it didn't fail to deliver. Proximity: The hotel location is close enough to the airport, Amsterdam and the Coast. Service and Hotel: The Hotel couldn't do enough for us. I am not able-bodied and the hotel isn't wheelchair friendly but they more than made up […] for it by helping my husband and I. The staff are definitely 5 Star! Hotel Room : 307 - Clean, tidy, food great - especially the ribs! and more than enough to eat for breakfast. Can they do better? They were sorting out the air conditioning whilst we were there so no complaints on maintenance. Apart from make the building more wheelchair friendly - nope :) WE WILL BE BACK! :) Read more
"Hotel Chariot by the Schiphol airport"
The hotel was very clean and staff was courteous. Only about a 5-6 minute shuttle ride to the airport. The bed was a huge king sized mattress, but was very firm and both my wife and I tossed and turned because of this. Only thing I was not happy about was they said there was a courtesy shuttle to and from airport, but they don't tell you they charge […] for extra trips to and from. The train line into Amsterdam is very convenient from the airport, but upon check out we discovered that every time we rode the shuttle to catch the train we were charged 8 euro each way. Just wish I would have known that before I received my bill. Otherwise, a good hotel and I would stay there again as well. Read more
"Pluses and Minuses"
This hotel was VERY clean and comfortable. BUT, it was hard to find and get to and you most definitely need a car. Also, we were charged 3.50 Euro per person for the night for city tax in addition to what we paid online. The restaurant was good, but pricy, and we ate there for dinner. We did not spend 10 euros for the breakfast, but instead found a […] nearby grocery store and bought breakfast foods. Would recommend it to people who have a car and are flying out of Amsterdam airport. Read more
"Hotel Chariot in Aalsmeer - Must stay again"
We stay in this hotel for one week for our family holiday.We occupied room 101 and 102 on the first floor with the balcony.Very nice, clean and comfortable.I have my car so we're ok for moving about but public transport is round the corner,OV CHIP like UK Oyster is cheaper to use on public transport.The seasonal pool is just 3minutes walk from the hotel […] "Oosterbad" natural swimming pool,all nice and clean NO CHLORINE.we love this swimming pool.if you love plants and flowers you will love Aalsmeer.After along day from the city,Hotel Chariot is a home to come back to and relax.

"Chariot Hotel (hidden cost)"
Apon arriving at the hotel we were advise that they had not booked the correct size room for our party. However, because our daughters are still very young we were able to make the hotel room work. Breakfast is 15 euro which seemed to be very overpriced, Then apon checkout the we were charrged an additional 35 euro for taxes even though our reservation […] stated that we were paid in full... This hotel also said it had a pool, the pool is located at a near by park and their is an additional fee for it. DO NOT STAY HERE unless you like HIDDEN FEES!!! Read more

"Great Hotel"
We stayed here for 7 nights......Very nice Hotel, Staff very friendly and room kept immacuately clean. The only down side for us was that the Hotel is very close to the airport and it was quite noisy in the room when the planes took off, this was due to being on the end of the Hotel in a room with a window in the roof, I am sure if you book a room on […] the 1st or 2nd floor the noise would be greatly reduced, we would stay there again and in the same room. And as you will find that the food and drink is expensive but excellent quallity. Saying that the food and drink is expensive every where in Holland compared to the UK. You will not be dissapointed.

"Hotell Chariot, Aalsmeer"
A nice and tidy hotel close to the Schipol airport. Rooms was clean and modern but they could have been better sound proofed considering that the hotel is fairly close the runways of Shipol airport. The service was also a little slow as I after two days had to change the light bulb I the toilet by my self this after it had been broken for two day without […] the cleaning staff noticing.

"Hotel Chariot - Close to Airport, Far from City"
Hotel Chariot is a nice Hotel with all modern Amenities. Plus points are close to airport, Free Wifi, Spacious rooms, In house Bar and kitchen. Negative points are that it is too far from city center and the only way to reach city center is through cab or hire hotel shuttle to airpoirt and then take a train from there. All in all very costly affair […] for anyone who have to visit city center frequently. Also inconvinient as the public transport stops at 1 in the night. Read more
"Hotel Chariot - Amsterdam"
Lovely hotel with lively bar - excelent 24hr reasonably priced service to and from Schiphol airport to get the train into the city to explore or get a flight - not just a park fly hotel. Breakfast very hearty sets you up for a full active day.
"Hotel Chariot Oosteinderweg 243"
The hotel itself was a nice hotel with friendly staff. It was also very clean, however be warned! The shuttle service is far more expensive than advertised. We were informed that 5 euro's for shuttle out with free return. This is not the case as we were charged 15 euro's each way. It also costs a further 15 euro's via the train to get into Amsterdam. […] This meant it was costing a total of 45 euro's every time we left the hotel, there are also local tax's that are payable when checking out, which are not shown when booking. Just not good enough. Would never go there again due to location and the hidden expenses. Mark & Julie Read more
"Very Smart"
As I have found before no name of the hotel was visable good trick that especially if its dark. This was a good hotel in terms of the interior a boutique hotel. Food was expensive dont bother with breakfast for !4 euros..usual under the heat lamp. Beware even though your invoice shows inc tax they have city tax to pay @ 3.50 euros. Good bedroom and […] bathroom and I managed to blag a free coffee in the restaurant, overall modern clean and would stay again Read more
Het verblijf was goed voor ons was het vrij onduidelijk dat we moesten betalen voor de shutlebus. we hadden 2 kamers en omdat we al een keer gebruik hadden gemaakt van de bus, om in het hotel te komen moesten we 32,00 euro betalen voor terug op schiphol te komen (16,00 euro per kamer) Maak je gebruik van een hotel om op tijd op schiphol te komen zou […] ik in het vervolg dicht bij een hotel nemen dan kun je je kamer ook wat duurder nemen. je denkt nml. dat je goedkoop een kamer hebt maar moet dan nog eens 16,00 euro bijbetalen voor het vervoer. dit is absolutt geen aanrader mogen in hun advertentie weleens wat duidelijker zijn.verder was de service wel oke.

"Flughafenhotel"
Das Hotel war für unsere Zwecke, am darauffolgenden Tag früh am Flughafen zu sein, gut geeignet. Das Familienzimmer war sehr klein, da wir nur zum Schlafen dort waren, egal. Was mich sehr gestört hat: für den Shuttleservice haben wir zu viert 30.- bezahlt, und das für eine zehnminütige Autofahrt.
"Lentokenttä hotelli johon ei kuulu kuljetusta"
Hotelli oli siisti, kaunis ja huone hyvän kokoinen. Sijaiti on kuitenkin kohtuullisen kaukana kentästä. Taksi maksoi yli 20€. Hotelli peri lentokenttäkuljetuksesta maksun. Muut hotellit ovat huomattavasti lähempänä kenttää ja kuljetus on ilmaista.

"Budget overnachten bij luchthaven zonder overlast"
Het was de goedkoopste aanbieding die ik nog kon boeken, en was zeer tevreden van mijn verblijf. Vriendelijk ontvangen, propere kamer (wel geen uitzicht, mat-glas op de ramen) maar wel een zéér net restaurant/bar ontbijtbuffet (niet inbegrepen in de prijs) Aanrader als u voor de overnachting alleen gaat, in de omgeving heb ik niet rondgekeken.
"godt hotel hvis man er i bil"
Dejligt hotel , men uden gode offentlige forbindelser og shuttlebussen er dyr 16 euro pr rum, med lange ventetider på opsamlingsstedet i lufthavnen, desværre, for mulighed for at blive sat af i lufthaven åbner for al transport i Amsterdam. Lækkert rum ,sengen dejlig stor men hård.

"Hotel Chariot - Tranquillità e comodità."
Ottimo hotel, situato al centro tra l'aeroporto e amsterdam, si è rivelato molto comodo per gli spostamenti tra il sud e il nord dell'Olanda, Pulito e abbastanza silenzioso, si sente solamente durante le ore diurne il rumore degli aerei, mentre di notte regna un silenzio favoloso. L'unica pecca è stato il personale della reception che non è stato molto […] cordiale. Read more
