By train, from Schiphol Airport: Alternatively, trains go to Amsterdam Central Station every 15 minutes. When you arrive at the airport and you reach the central hall there is a big sign with the train information. The trains to the central station are running from 05:40 AM to 00:30 AM.

very good hotel, nothing was to much trouble for the staff, good location, on aquiet street but close to most sites, good views of the canal
would have liked to have seen tea and coffee facilities in the room instead of having to order as an extraMike Hines

This was the first time that my wife and i traveled to amstrerdam. the experience was only made better in staying at the ambassade. it is right on the canal and at night you can hear the swans like loons on a lake! the room was perfectly annointed with all htat you would expect from this class of hotel, only i wish they had a small fridge. the bathroom was extremely clean, the ceilings were high, the deluxe rooms are quite large enough and if you are on the canal side you'll have a wall of windows overlooking that you can open to let in the frsh air or listen to those traveling by, part of the whole experience! i will be traveling to amsterdam again next year and will most definitely be staying again at the ambassade!No fridgeAnonymous

The hotel was very nicely presented and decorated. the room was nice and clean- there were just some marks on the wall that could have been cleaned off. the beds were extremely crisp and comfortable to sleep in- heavenly! and the hotel has a fantastic location with very helpful staff. one of the best hotels i've stayed in.It would be good if there was a smaller breakfast option for those who don't want to pay 16 euros for a feast.Tan
