The Bridge Hotel

The staff were very welcoming and accommodating. The atmosphere in the hotel was a good mixture of efficient friendliness and privacy. Everything worked as it should have done and it is very much how it comes across on its website. For anyone who does not like narrow, winding staircases this hotel would be a good choice - at least if you stay on the ground floor like we did. I think there is a lift.

The only thing that was a little disappointing was the breakfast. It seems to be a Dutch thing, but if you are not into pork/ham or cheese, choices are very limited (though there are eggs and cereals). One thing that would make a difference is providing a range of nice fresh fruits and maybe even some dried fruits like prunes, figs, etc, together with nuts.

Super location - close to amenities but in a quieter part of Amsterdam adjacent to the "skinny bridge". Good sized modern rooms. Very helpful staff. Buffet breakfast more than adequate.

Closeness to metro, views of canal, free breakfast, free internet. Ask about car parking at Euro 6/day just outside the city - easy access by metro.

Weekday price is very high considering it is not in downtown area

Excellent location, close to the centre but in a great, safe, canal side spot. The staff were really friendly, helpful and welcoming, offering a personal/family approach rather than bland multi chain hotel. Good breakfast to set you up for the day. My young son and I really enjoyed our stay.

Wardrobes were a bit basic

Wonderful location in Amsterdam, right on the Amstel and near great restaurants and cultural venues. The staff were great hosts, providing great suggestions. Rooms are simple yet elegant.

Friendly staff, OK breakfast, perfect location.

Location

the staff was extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfast buffet to begin each day a real treat

The staff was amazing! They were the epitome of what hotel staff should be in every way. The price was fantastic! Love the fact that breakfast was included. It's a very quaint hotel on the river. There are bars, restaurants, and theatre (next door) within walking distance, however, some of the major attractions are easier accessed via public transportation which is great and reasonably priced in Amsterdam.

Though the hotel is on the river, our room did not have a view. But what can you expect when you get a cheap rate. The room was large, comfortable, and clean. Some people may not like the fact that attractions such as the Van Gogh Museum and the Anne Frank House are not within close proximity. However, in my opinion, Amsterdam has extremely good public transportation. Every few blocks, there's either a tram, a bus, or the underground train. The price is reasonable. Especially if you get a 24-hour, 48-hour or 72-hour pass that allows you on all three any time within that 24-, 48-, or 72-hour period.

Very friendly, helpful staff. Great location, quiet but close to the city, with tram stops nearby and walking distance to some nice shopping and eating places. Room was spacious, shower a good size. Room recently upgraded so all fresh and clean.

No complaints. No lift but to be expected in an old building

This is a charming hotel with lovely views of bridges and canal views close to public transportation and restaurants. The breakfast served is generous and served at convenient hours.

I liked the wooden floor in the room, the fact that it was clean and I had an individual heater so could warm up at night when it got chilly. breakfast not impressive but sufficient. Staff friendly and efficient.

no hair dryer in the room

nice stay, simple hotel, good position, ideal for short stay
