Time Out "A flash branch of the reliable, homegrown NH chain, the Barbizon is right opposite Centraal Station, so ideal if you want to hop off the train laden with luggage." Full review
Star Service "The friendly, well-trained staff does its best to keep this busy commercial house relaxed and peaceful. This is a viable alternative to the Crowne Plaza." Full review
