Lock in a great price for BackStage Hotel – rated 8.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

Lovely friendly staff always there to help. Near a wide variety of restaraunts and bara. Within walking distance of shops and good views.

Hannah, United Kingdom

The guys at the front desk are AWESOME! Incredibly friendly, helpful, and laid back. Location was perfect - close enough to walk about anywhere, but just outside the chaos of the more touristy areas. Pretty well-stocked breakfast option in the mornings.

David, Sweden

Second time staying at this hotel and will always return! Extremely convenient transport links, walking distance from music venue Melkweg which is why I was there. Close to lots of restaurants/bars/shops!

Beth, United Kingdom

Great location with clubs (paradiso is an old converted church which has great lineups & I'd recommend looking up before you go, we booked tickets using the club website/ticket master/google translate before we went), restaurants, coffee shops, shopping etc all only a minute from the hotel plus only about 15/20 minute walk into the centre of Amsterdam. Plus it's really cool with amazing artwork on the walls in our room, plus 24hour access to hotel with your own room key so can stay out and come in at whatever time you want to. Plus it's got its own bar. We went as a group of 5 friends and stayed there as it offered a room to share for 5 which is hard to find & was a great find for friends travelling as a group, the room we stayed in had its own bathroom & was great fun staying in the same room as friends

Bethany, United Kingdom

Good and beautiful position, great design, very freindly staff! Bathroom perfectly clean all the time. Also for breakfast many fresh food and good coffee. Super suggested

Maiura, Italy

its a very cheap hostel style hotel, unfortunately, i haven't checked it before booked and assume I will get a decent room for 200EU, it was a clean but pretty bad hotel.

Gregor, Germany

Love the hotel and location staff were so nice and helpful even when we came in, in a drunken state

Danielle, United Kingdom

beds were nice and soft, happy for you to smoke outside, friendly staff

Paul, United Kingdom

The decor in the room was really quirky and different! The layout was good, even though there were 5 beds in the room it didn't feel to cramped.The staff were really helpful and friendly, giving us advice on where to go and booking airport transport for us.

Amy, United Kingdom

Location is perfect, Stuff is helpful by all means

눉Pretty noisy (indoors) if you're near a stairwell. TINY bathrooms that could probably be cleaned a bit more often given the fact they are shared.
눇The guys at the front desk are AWESOME! Incredibly friendly, helpful, and laid back. Location was perfect - close enough to walk about anywhere, but just outside the chaos of the more touristy areas. Pretty well-stocked breakfast option in the mornings.

눉There was nothing we didn't like, you can get a hotel with more facilities such as a restaurant or room service but you have to stay much further out which costs more in cabs & the hotel is clean, cool, friendly helpful staff, does the job & a fantastic location. It can be noisy as it's such a central location with taxi's beeping outside in the night but for the location it's in you'd expect that. The stairs are steep but we'd read this when booking & only had small weekend cases so wasn't an issue & again it is something you expect in Amsterdam with most properties apart from hotels which are outside the city centre
눇Great location with clubs (paradiso is an old converted church which has great lineups & I'd recommend looking up before you go, we booked tickets using the club website/ticket master/google translate before we went), restaurants, coffee shops, shopping etc all only a minute from the hotel plus only about 15/20 minute walk into the centre of Amsterdam. Plus it's really cool with amazing artwork on the walls in our room, plus 24hour access to hotel with your own room key so can stay out and come in at whatever time you want to. Plus it's got its own bar.

눇Everything was very clean, staff were fantastic. Room was as described. Breakfast in the morning was great, although it was €9.

눇The place was nice enough (very small and hot rooms though) and staff were really great but holy heck it was so expensive for what you get.. We spent more on a three night stay there than we did on proceeding nine nights travel across accommodation of equal or higher standard.

Disappointing

눉That was the worst hotel. The price was high. The room was in the 4th floor, no elevator, just extremely inconvenient staircase. Nobody from the stuff asked us if we need help with our big baggage... Also the bathroom was very small and the light turned off unexpectedly in less than 1 minute. To turn it on we had to "dance" inside of the room because of the sensor. I will not recomend this hotel to nobody.
눇Only the location was good
