Corendon Vitality

Mon séjour se résume en 3 mots: OH MY GOD!^^
Hotêl splendide, petite chambre très mignonne, personnel adorable, restaurant sublime… et le meilleur de tout: le spa. Je suis une grande adepte des massages et là je dois avouer que ça a dépassé toutes mes espérances! Vaste choix, diverses salles de relaxations toutes plus agréables les unes que les autres… le hammam m’a particulièrement bluffé par son esthétisme.
L’Hôtel est un peu décentré mais un bus passé à moins de 50 mètres de l’hôtel et nous mèné dans le centre.

This brand new hotel just outside the city centre of Amsterdam is a very comfortable place to stay when you are looking for luxury for a good value. This March is the grand opening and I had the opportunity to test it.
This hotel has four unique selling points. First, you can have your own airplane in your room. What?! Yes, you’re reading it right. An AIRPLANE. On the seventh floor of the hotel they build in a real plane. In the cockpit room you can control a plane by yourself. With a simulator you can takeoff, fly to another destination and ofcourse you will be responsible for the landing also. In the business class they build in a conference room for sixteen people. So are you looking for a meeting room and you want to impress your client. GO HERE! There is also a luxurious bathroom and a very nice bed to crash on.
Also the other rooms are very comfortabel en modern. The bed are very nice and soft (specially designed for the Corendon Hotels) and brand new bathrooms with a large shower cabin. There is soap and shampoo, a possibility to make tea, HD tv screen with international channels and a mini bar. Take a look at the pictures above the bed. If you know Istanbull and Amsterdam for a bit, you will notice something odd.
Second, there is a very nice vitality spa. This is quit unique in Amsterdam and is open for everyone (so also if you are not staying in the hotel). There will be a pool with a four season theme. Chill on the beach with (fake) sunlight and (fake) sand. You will even smell the ocean! Besides the pool there is a hammam (a Turkisch bathouse) and several relaxing and therapeutic treatments. So if you’re recovering from a surgery this is possible here. They even have botox treatments!
The disadvantage is that you will have to pay for the entrée of the spa. If you are a guest of the hotel it will cost you 15 euro per person, otherwise it’s 19,50 euro. The reason is that the spa provides room for only fourty persons at the same time.
Third, the breakfast is THA BOMB! If you like English breakfast (eggs and sausages), France (brie, croissaint or yoghurt), Dutch (bread with cheese or peanutbutter), American (bacon) or more mediterranean (Turkish bread, different kind of fish, olive, salami). It’s ALL there!
And last but not least, the service is excellent. De staff is very enthusiastic and helpfull. You will feel very welcome here.
The only thing is, it’s not in the city centre. Yes, there is a metro station nearby, but it will take more then 15 minutes to get in the centre of Amsterdam. But in Amsterdam and The Netherlands the bike is our dear friend. So rent one and then you can be within 15 minutes in the Vondelpark. AND you will see a lot more of Amsterdam to!
