Room was great, very large and comfortable. Hotel is really nice; beds were super comfy. Location is a bit off the beaten path but that's what we liked about it

Lee United States of America

Amazing location, wonderful staff, very clean, very close to the metro and tram. He has a beautiful view towards a park in the construction is inside an old church, or an old castle. I will definitely come back to this hotel next time I come to Amsterdam!

Arroyo Italy

service was excellent. very comfortable bed. very nice breakfast the hotel is an old psychiatric hospital so the outside is very old but the interior is super modern.

Dinah Israel

It's a beautiful hotel, with gorgeous rooms and a huge blueprint. The rooms are on two floors, which makes good use of the space without sacrificing any of the luxury. The bed is big and everything is very royal and comfy.

Inga Iceland

The staff is kind and willing to help. Beautiful hotel and located in a large park, Clean and comfortable rooms. Hotel restaurant is good.

Amit Israel

amazing location, super quiet and still close to town center and other Amsterdam highlights.

Murdock United States of America

Beautifully renovated, historic building in an idyllic location on the Oosterpark. Architecturally design, large bedroom with glass doors onto a lawn area, premium lounge area. Amazing chapel within the hotel where they run events. We will definitely be back.

Nathan United Kingdom

the location is central enough but not in the hectic part of the city, and it’s right on the Oosterpark park which is serene and beautiful.

Sivan Israel

The design of the hotel was so unique and in a perfect location.

Ln6w3 United Kingdom

The location is magical. It feels like being in a secret garden. The staff were fantastic and the restaurant menu and drinks offerings were perfect. The best part of our weekend was the outdoor seating overlooking the park on a beautiful day.
