Night Receptionist | Parttime | NH Amsterdam Leidseplein
*Parttime for 2 days per week
NH Amsterdam Leidseplein is situated in the south side of the city centre, right in front of Leidseplein which hosts tram stops from multiple directions. The Museum District and famous shopping streets like Leidsestraat and PC Hooftstraat are just a stone's throw away from the hotel. The city theatre, Vondelpark and some of the nicest cafes and restaurants in Amsterdam can also be found just around the corner. After a busy shift with occupied meeting rooms, group lunches and lots of check-ins, it is time for us to unwind and enjoy a well-deserved drink together at the lively Leidseplein. Our young reception team and the familiar faces of the Food and Beverage team, makes our hotel the greatest place to work.
