The hype
Travelers love the modern design and the 'cool' factor of the Noord neighborhood, but almost everyone mentions how tight the rooms are.
Yotel Amsterdam
$125-180/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You're a solo traveler or tech-loving couple who wants a cool, futuristic crash pad in trendy Amsterdam Noord without the city center price tag.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- The futuristic 'cabin' vibe with adjustable SmartBeds and mood lighting
- Deck restaurant's waterfront terrace is a genuine local hangout
- Free 24/7 ferry to Central Station makes the location feel adventurous, not isolated
Kurzfassung: It’s a glorified first-class airplane cabin on land—sleek and efficient, but don't expect to open your suitcase fully if you're traveling with a partner.
Bewertet von @queenieboo77: I had such a blast staying here! The room is definitely cozy, but playing with the motorized smart bed kept us entertained for ages. It’s a bit industrial outside, but for a fun, tech-filled base in Amsterdam, it was exactly what we needed.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
The walk to the ferry is longer than expected (10-15 mins), which can be a drag with heavy luggage or in the rain.
- You travel light (carry-on only)
- You enjoy industrial/hipster neighborhoods like Brooklyn or Shoreditch
- You want a high-tech, contactless experience
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though the small surface area means any missed dust is immediately visible.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and mold-free, but the glass partitions attract fingerprints and water spots.
- Maintenance: Newer build (2019), so wear and tear is minimal, though SmartBed motors occasionally glitch.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and white, standard hotel quality. Nothing plush, but clean.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh. No musty carpet smells thanks to laminate flooring.

Vor der Buchung

- Check-in is via self-service kiosks; have your booking reference handy.
- Housekeeping is 'light' by default to save energy—you might need to request a full clean.
Was Sie einpacken sollten
- Slippers (floors are laminate/industrial and can feel cold)
- European power adapter (Type C/F) though USB ports are plentiful
- Compact luggage (seriously, leave the steamer trunk at home)
Zimmer-Genie
Beste Auswahl

Zimmer, die Sie meiden sollten
- Ground floor rooms near the 'Deck' terrace (noise issues)
- Standard cabins if you have checked luggage—literally nowhere to open it
Zimmerwunsch-Genie – kopieren & einfügen
“I would appreciate a room on a high floor, facing the canal/water side, away from the elevator banks. If possible, a corner cabin for slightly more window space.”
FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is there a pool?
No. There is a gym and a terrace, but no pool. Don't be fooled by generic amenities lists.
How do I get to the city center?
Walk 12-15 minutes to the Buiksloterweg ferry terminal, then take the free 24/7 ferry to Amsterdam Central. It's easy and fun.
Is the robot luggage handler here?
No. The famous 'Yobot' arm is in New York. Amsterdam has standard luggage storage lockers.
Can I open the windows?
Generally no. The cabins are climate-controlled sealed units.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not. It costs around €19.50-20.00 per person. It's a decent buffet, but local cafes in Noord offer better value.
Is there parking?
Yes, on-site parking is available for approximately €15 per day, which is a steal for Amsterdam.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
Rent a bike directly from the hotel—it cuts the ferry commute to 3 minutes and opens up the scenic NDSM wharf area.
- ✨
The 'Grab+Go' station in the lobby has decent snacks if you arrive late and everything else is closed.
- ✨
Use the 'SmartBed' lounge mode for watching TV; it's actually more comfortable than the flat sleeping mode for relaxing.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The 'mood lighting' wheel is fun for 5 minutes but can be confusing to turn fully 'off' for pitch-black sleep.
💡The shower pressure is surprisingly excellent—often the best part of the room.
💡You might hear the mechanical whir of your neighbor adjusting their SmartBed.
💡The ferry ride at sunrise is one of the best free photo ops in the city.
💡The hotel is cashless—bring your card for everything from coffee to city tax.
