Is The Highlander good? Overview, pros and cons

Staylist AI overview · based on 8 public guest reviews

“Central Amsterdam snug”

A few hundred metres from Central Station in the heart of Amsterdam, The Highlander is a loved recommend: friendly proactive staff, an extremely clean well-kept hotel with a spacious pleasant room per one guest — though another found the room a little small for a big suitcase — a great okay-to-great breakfast with decent choice, and a best-feature lounge where drinks and snacks come free for gathering with friends. Nits: dirty sheets weren't changed until requested on day two, and WC noise from the floor above carries.
