Staff were excellent- super friendly and they truly appreciated our business! The location is in the heart of the city and is considered one of the busiest areas. Our room was in a quiet spot on the second floor facing the back courtyard. Although the room was basic and in need of some TLC, the hotel has started a large renovation and I'm sure the summer guests will be treated to refreshed rooms.

It is very well located, near Central Station, and in walking distance of the main attractions, the only negative point is that there is a bar next to it, so it is a little bit noisy.

Good hotel, but weak aircondition.

Weak aircondition in 4th floor during intense heat at France hotell, made the last night air difficult to sleep. Otherwise come and friendly people.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The Hotel France is in a convenient location, very walkable and close to the train station. Staff are very nice. Here goes my first bad review ever….for quite a high price, it is more average (at best) hostel in vibes than luxury hotel. It is very old, but there is no excuse for the very dirty carpeting in the entry way and mouldy shower curtain and shower as well as the sporadic room service. The laminate flooring in the room was also very worn and lifting up. The beds were not uncomfortable and clean, however. As Amsterdam is very expensive, I would pay more for a nicer hotel next time, or better yet spend much less at a beautiful airport hotel and take the train in daily if that is not too inconvenient.

Tiny room, no air-conditioning

Two good features: convenient to Centraal Station and staff kind and friendly. Not so good: room and bathroom tiny. Not very clean. Bed hard, pillows lumpy. Minimal amenities; no free coffee. Most important, the listing online promised air-conditioning but it was just weak air-circulation without cooling. With 32 C / 90 F temps outside, the room was so hot and stuffy I hardly slept at all.
