Our take
I would choose the Barbizon Palace when arriving or leaving by train matters as much as comfort: it sits near Amsterdam Centraal, adds a spa with a sauna and a fitness center, and keeps two restaurants and a bar on site. Business travellers get dedicated facilities and pet owners are welcome. If the budget is tight or you prefer a small, pared-back hotel, a five-star house of this scale is not the right fit.
- Consider booking a room with a kitchen if you prefer self-catering options during your stay.
- Take advantage of the spa and fitness center, especially the sauna, for relaxation after a day of sightseeing.
- Explore the dining options within the hotel, as it offers two restaurants for varied culinary experiences.
Why we love it

Why guests love itThe Barbizon Palace is the grand option I would pick near Amsterdam Centraal for families arriving by train, since a short walk from the platform matters with luggage and tired children. Two restaurants and a bar mean dinner can stay in the building, and the spa and sauna give parents a break. Pets are welcome too. With an 8.8 rating across more than 3,000 reviews, the score rests on a large sample.
