The train journey from Amsterdam to Paris was a good experience overall. The price of the journey was reasonable and the trains were mostly on time, which made planning easier. In terms of hygiene, standards were acceptable and cleanliness on the train was maintained. However, the wifi connection was disappointing, often unreliable and slow, which could be frustrating for travellers who rely on a stable internet connection. The staff on board the train also left a lot to be desired, as service was below average and customer needs were not always satisfactorily met. They were not responsive to the interests and concerns of your guests. In addition, the level of comfort during the journey was not particularly high. Overall, the train journey from Amsterdam to Paris offers a great experience!

The journey from Amsterdam to Paris a few months ago with Deutsche Bahn was excellent. Firstly, the price is worth mentioning as it was fair and good value. The staff was very friendly, polite, nice and respectful to your guests. They always tried to deal with and clarify your guests' concerns with the greatest interest. In addition, the train arrived in Paris on time and hygiene standards were extremely well taken care of, as the toilets were well maintained. However, the seats were not very comfortable and the noise level was annoying. The wifi was also not very powerful or efficient. But I loved the trip and would recommend it to others!

A few months ago, I travelled back from Amsterdam to Paris on the Deutsche Bahn. Good attention was paid to hygiene. The toilets and seats were clean and tidy. They also smelled pleasant. The seats were also incredibly comfortable. This allowed me to rest and relax during the journey. The wifi connection was stable and efficient. I therefore had access to the internet at all times. The volume on the train was reasonable. However, I felt the price was a little too expensive. The staff were not particularly friendly. They had a relatively ignorant behaviour. Unfortunately, the train didn't arrive in Paris on time either. This made planning difficult. But overall a good trip!

My journey from Amsterdam to Paris was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I always felt that I was in good hands. The wifi connection was stable and efficient. I had access to the internet at all times and was able to work on my laptop or by hand, for example. Good attention was paid to hygiene, as the toilets and seats were comfortable and well maintained. However, in my opinion, the price was a little too expensive and not necessarily worth it for the journey. In addition, the train did not arrive in Paris on time, which made it difficult to plan later. I found the booking options confusing and complicated. But all in all a good journey, while aspects such as punctuality or price are extremely important to us.
