Wonderful hotel! It is close a few minutes walk to metro station which takes about 12min to reach Amsterdam central station. It is located in a quiet area with a 3min access to mini mart operating from 7am to 7pm and no such food or other facilities. It has an easy access to Amsterdam for day trips via metro. We found the breakfast a bit expensive for $24 per person so we decided to eat out. Our room had toilet on one side and shower sink on the other side. The automatic control of lights and curtains was a plus and easy. The room had a kettle and refrigerator which was a plus. Overall, pleasant!

Absolutely wonderful stay. The rooms were lovely, clean, and frankly very impressive. They had exterior blackout curtains, and the room could be controlled from an ipad. I loved the filtered water tap provided by the hotel, it was very nice touch, in addition to their own selection of toiletries provided. Right beside the subway station, so getting to the city core was easy, about ten minutes by subway, so it’s worth investing in a pass. My one hang up may be the location; there’s not much going on in that area, so the majority of your time is best spent in the city. However, this also meant the hotel was quiet at night.

The hotel locates at the edge of the city center (lower hotel rate comparing to those in the center), but it is very convenient to get to the center. Subway station is only 5' walk and have three lines of subway 51, 53 and 54, less than 10' to get to the central station. We will come back to this hotel for our future trip to Amsterdam.

Hey William, thanks for taking the time to review your stay with us. Inspired by centuries of sailors who've tacked their sails and harnessed the wind on the Amstel's tight turns, Ruby Emma's all about using the power of nature and is packed with cutting-edge green technology. From geothermal energy generation and a smart facade to the use of recycled materials like carpets made from former fishing nets, energy efficiency is at the heart of the hotel. It's a pity to hear it wasn't entirely your cup of tea but still hope you'll stay with us soon again. Your Ruby Emma Team

Unique facilities. Hi-tech! Window shutters have a mind of their own. Very comfy bed. There’s a feeling of over-reliance on automation. A bit cold and robotic. But it works!

3rd time staying here, perfect location close to the metro and easy to get into Centraal. Rooms are perfect however my only complaint this time is that the cleaning of the room when we arrived wasn’t great. There were loads of eyelash extensions on the floor by the bin and table as well as a lot of dust/crumbs which was slightly disappointing but didn’t affect my stay at all or my opinion of the hotel. It’s 10/10 every time but the cleaning did let them down this time

This is a rustic industrial style hotel yet it adopts a few luxurious gadgets like spacious shower stall with rainforest shower head which enable guest to have an enjoyable shower experience, an iPad device controlling the light, curtains, room services etc and an amplifier with heavy strong bass which are all wonderful. The only drawbacks are the so so room cleaning services and the self check-in procedure s which add burden on the already worn out travellers after a long haul.

We requested a cot for baby, it was confirmed prior our arrival, however it was never brought to the room and we were there 5 days, asking for it. The service at the bar, is very slow, it may take over 25 minutes to get a drink order served.

Hey Viviana, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're sorry to hear about the mix-up with the cot. Our team does their best to resolve our guest's requests as quickly as possible. However, we will pass on your feedback to the appropriate person. We understand that our bars can be busy at times, but our hosts always do their best to mix, stir and shake drinks as quickly as possible. Don't worry, we'll have a chat with the team and see how we can speed up our service in the future. We hope you'll be back for another drink soon.Your Ruby Emma Team

Very high tech facilities, staff is super nice and easy to talk to. Spaklerweg station nearby takes you to Centraal Station regularly and quickly, lots of nice walking routes as well. Note that our WOW room toilet had no exhaust and there are no microwaves available (there are fridges so keep in mind for leftovers), and there's one small grocer nearby.

I usually never do reviews but Ruby Emma needed it! If you're looking for a nice hotel in amsterdam this place is perfect. Its a 2 minute walk to a station that takes you directly to the center. The mate suite was lovely for me and my girlfriend! Grateful for the ipad controlled light settings and deadly mattresses that will for sure help with any jet lag.
