Hotel Arena is such a beautiful mix of old and new, the building has so much character, but everything feels modern and comfortable. The location next to Oosterpark is peaceful, and it’s still easy to get to the city center. The staff were super friendly, and the restaurant was a great surprise. I’d definitely stay here again.

The building has an amazing history and a group of talented architects have made sure that its renovation has preserved its character and the unique traces left behind by the many people who were here before us while providing all the creature comforts we expect. The generous size of the room would have impressed every colleague who has had to live in a studio apartment in downtown San Francisco and it made for a zen experience. One possible exception to the excellent overall design that we struggled with was the decision to use a vast black glass wall to “separate” the bathroom from the living room. Once the lights went on, the ‘stage’ experience was unnerving. The hotel grounds blend effortlessly with the park and they invite you to explore and enjoy no matter the weather. The winter garden aka hotel restaurant was delightful, the service impeccable, and the menu, while somewhat limited, was clearly created with a lot of forethought as to the local ingredients and flavors. Suggestions for the management: - the use of AI-assistants to aid in passing information to Housekeeping and Front Desk staff was well implemented. Perhaps the bots could go a step further and make suggestions to their human colleagues as to the possible implications of newly received information, I.e. people arriving at midnight might appreciate a little help with their luggage up the winding, dark steps out front.

Really great venue, good area. Presents really well from the outside. The cleaners however spilt over a juice in my room and did not properly clean it, left liquid all where i was charging/keeping my electronics! They also took one of our key cards after a clean?? There was also a dent in the floor in my room. Apart from both incidents with the cleaners, would stay again.

Top quality stay

Had a lovely stay in Hotel Arena for a 3-day getaway in March. The hotel was impeccably maintained and staff were helpful and friendly (breakfast was good too!) The room felt spacious with the split-level design and the bed was enormous. It's a shame we only had 2 nights and would definitely consider it as my first choice for a stay if I return to Amsterdam.
