“Holiday Inn Express Amsterdam - North Riverside sits distinctively on the IJ-lake's north shore, a high-rise that certainly makes a visual statement. Its location provides a unique perspective on the city, though be prepared for a bit of an industrial backdrop in some views, and the free ferry into central Amsterdam is genuinely convenient. While the hotel aims for modern comfort, some aspects, like breakfast and room amenities, could perhaps use a bit more polish.”
