Amazing property. Very traditional Amsterdam with a twist. Excellent breakfast. Very engaging and helpful staff. Unbelievably quiet rooms. Great courtyard.

Danielle Germany

Very clean and very near sites like The Anne Frank House. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Yvette United States of America

Everything about my stay at Canal House was absolutely lovely. The decor is dramatic and charming, the room was large and the layout smart, the staff were incredibly hospitable, and the location is excellent! They even have a digital key system which I was skeptical of at first, but ended up being very slick. My room also had heated bathroom floors, which was such a pleasant surprise in November! I only wished I had booked a longer stay.

Erin United States of America

Lovely boutique hotel with a fantastic location. Staff couldn't have been more helpful.

Beverly United States of America

Very kind staff who went out of their way to help us. Room was sumptuous and beautiful bath products to use. Breakfast was wonderful and very abundant.

Louise United Kingdom
