I was working at Science Park for a week and could not find a place to stay in Amsterdam that would be both affordable and conveniently placed, so I opted to stay in Bussum instead. Bastion Hotel was a great choice for that! It is located right next to the train station from which a Sprinter for Amsterdam leaves every half an hour. Thus, my commute to Science Park was easy after having a very nice breakfast, and when I was back the room was spacious and comfortable so I could continue working and relax at the end of the day.

The dining area is rather small so it can be a bit of a hassle to get a seat at busier times of the morning.

The experience at this hotel was nothing short of amazing, with all aspects of my stay exceeding my expectations. A standout feature of the hotel was the exceptional hospitality provided by the staff, particularly a lady named Stella from Greece. Her friendliness and welcoming demeanor added a personal touch to my visit, making my experience memorable. Stella's attentiveness and professionalism significantly enhanced the overall quality of my stay, embodying the high standard of customer service.

One minor suggestion for improvement would be to provide one use slippers for guests. The floors can feel somewhat cold at times, and having slippers available would add an extra layer of comfort to the hotel's already excellent amenities. This thoughtful addition would surely enhance the overall guest experience, making stays even more cozy and enjoyable.

We had the best time in Amsterdam and the stay in this hotel is absolutely lovely. There is a sprinter train station 1 min away from the hotel and in 6 stops you will be in Amsterdam Central. We will choose this hotel again since we really loved the location. Staff is very helpful. Breakfast was also great.

Pillows were smelly, which was very weird, since this hotel is so clean. Maybe they were just old. Luckily we brought our own pillow cases.

War alles gut, danke. The manager was very Kind and Achtsam. She realized my frustration and handled the situation very well. We enjoyed a good laugh together and even a hug of proudness.

booking.com confusion, too many emails, and not good communication between venues and .com service I book an double room, canceled on time, or at least made many attempts. rebooked a single room, as requested . When I arrived, I had two rooms. The Manager kindly took care of everything to my satisfaction but the time I spend on the phone and email prior to arrival make me frustrated to arrive and it looked as thought it was all in vain. I am done with booking.com

Friendly staff. Check- in and - out was smooth without queuing. Check- in and- out times were generous compared to many other hotels. The location next to the train station was a great plus to visit Amsterdam. Great surroundings for walking and biking. We had a room at the back-side and did not hear the trains passing by .

I personally did not like the prominent artificial (flower ?) scent in the room. However, there could nothing be done to get rid of it.

friendliness and helpfulness of the staff excellent location next to the train stop spacious and comfortable bathroom

some parts of the room unclean (e.g. curtains) poorly functional bedside tables (cubes without drawers) pillows too high and uncomfortable hallway light not working

Hotel is in a good location near train station with good parking facilities.

Lack of coffee, tea, milk or sugar to make a drink, only about two sachets of each. No bottle of water for guests. No shampoo or body wash in the toilet, just a small round tablet of soap. I have stayed here a few times before. It never used to be that way. It felt like they were trying to cut down on their running costs.

Facility is less than throw away distance from train station,, I wonder how someone can get a propert to close to railway station.....ample of parking...very serene and calm location...staff at counter was super friendly...

Nothing I remember

Very clean and comfortable room, equipped with a fridge and a water kettle (available on request). Nearby train station provides excellent connection to Amsterdam. Despite the proximity of the railway, the room was exceptionally quiet.

The staff were very friendly and willing to help. The room were clean and well maintained.

Due to the location beside the train station, we could hear the trains passing by throughout the night. The bathroom was just big enough for a single person.
