My journey from Hamburg Central Station to Amsterdam with Deutsche Bahn was really very good. The only criticism is the rather long duration of the journey. Otherwise, everything was very clean and tidy. The occupancy rate was negligible and you had almost free choice of seats. The seats were very comfortable and there was delicious food and drinks. There was also air conditioning. The internet was good enough.

Pros

Pleasant ride

Quick

Uncomplicated

Cons

Slight delay

In March I travelled from Hamburg to Amsterdam by train. The journey started on time in HH. The reserved seat was very comfortable and there was a power outlet to charge my laptop and mobile phone. In Duisburg I had to change trains. Here, unfortunately, the connecting train was a little late.

Pros

I took the ICE to Amsterdam. It was a very comfortable journey, I travelled for about 4 hours. The price was €34.90, which is very fair, as there was also a power socket next to the seat and free wifi, which you could use the whole train journey. The service is really very friendly. The seats were very clean, the toilets were actually very clean too. I could recommend it to anyone to make a journey with the ICE.
