any opinions on THESE hotels from forum users please!

Post by Hotdog »

Planning next trip in feb and narrowed down a few hotels that look nice, in good location and are no more than £170 for 3 nights in double en-suit room. Cant find any reviews or opinions on here from the people who's opinions really count (fellow tokers!), so if anyone does have anything to say about the following hotels i'd like to hear it before I book, and please no one suggest trip advisor blah blah! the hotels are:
HOTEL MOZART (prinsengract)
HOTEL CORDIAL (rokin)
ORANJE TULP (damrak)
FALCON PLAZA (valkenburgerstraat)
MULTATULI HOTEL (prins hendrikade)
I wanna hear anything good or bad as I will be booking 1 of these soon...cheers


If in doubt, have a spliff

I have stayed in the one I highlighted in bold. The first place I ever stayed on me virgin trip. Also, a lifesaver when I was struggling to get a room for a last minute trip in August two years ago. Narrow stairs as per the norm. En-suite rooms. No problem toking. The Triple room I had on my first trip had the worst view of a brick wall. The single I had was on the third floor, and faced over to the Grasshopper.
Not lavish by any strech of the imagination, but perfect to lay you're head after a hard days toking.

I stayed in the Winston first time. Great place and it's right in the red light district.

I want opinions (from fellow toker forumites, not tripadvisor) on the hotels i wrote about in my original post, not the winston, nor anywhere else! God stoners are hard work sometimes :wink:

I stayed at De Oranje Tulp in 2003. It's above a good steak house and directly opposite the Grasshopper. The room over looked the Damrak and would never stay there again due to street and general traffic noise all day. As a result, I vowed never to get a hotel again near a tram line or busy traffic route as well as loud pedestrian zone. Good views from the room though.

Cordial is the worst hotel I've ever stayed in and Mulitali is over priced rubbish. You can do a LOT better. My suggestions would be Luxer and Terminus.

Hi Bav,

Avoid Hotel Cordial, its a dump pure and simple dump. I have slept in better skips!

it seems the hotels I asked about in the original post are all pretty mixed bag hotels (picked out by the missus). Checked out cornerhouse on recomendation from forum users but at 70 euros a night seems expensive for what it is as its reviews are not great. If anyone has any valid suggestions for a double en suite room, for around £150 for 3 nights in feb/mar pls let me know. :lol:
