The staff was really friendly, the hotel has a large kitchen that you can use to make your own meals and a nice terraza where you can hangout even when its raining since its covered.

Liliana Netherlands

It was a nice stay in a lovely little part of the city. The staff were very helpful and were also able to check me in early. A genuine kindness to a tired traveler. It is easily accessible by the tram if you don't want to walk your bags from Centraal Station.

Anna United States of America

It was not crowded, clean, warm, calm and just on point. easy access to city center like 12 mins walk thank you much!

Mostafa United Arab Emirates

it was very clean and cozy and has a great location. definitely would stay there again

Juan El Salvador

Close to the metro and tram, convenient location. Helpful staff. Free tea, guest fridge in the lounge.

Attila Hungary

It is worth for the money, friendly staff, 15 min walk to red light district, close to tram stations. WIFI is ok. There are coffee and snacks (with cost) at the property. They store our luggage due to early arrival. They have a kitchen but not sure if you can use it, worth to ask…

Josue Mexico

Heplful staff. Resolved an issue with the reservation

Michal Ireland

Loved the location of the hotel! We were able to get everywhere by foot and the breakfast in the morning was pretty good too! The rooms were nice and comfy and the host was super friendly.

Felicitas Germany

The rooms are clean but you don't have a private bathroom. Although the hotel was fully booked, the bathrooms were never occupied. The wifi was the fastest we had in Europe during our trip. The staff speaks English very well and is very approachable and helpful. Great and decent breakfast. No complaints at all about this place without mentioning the location - literally 15 min walk from all the important points in the city.

Caio Brazil

The staff was very friendly and with very good hospitality. the palce was very nice and clean and nice

  • How to arrive from schiphol directly to Hotel after midnight?

    To get to Amsterdam Central Station from Schiphol, take the train (they run approx every 15 minutes) direct to Central Station. The trains are located down the escalator inside the Airport. The price for a train ticket is EUR 4,30 one way. To get to the hotel from Central Station, take tram 14. The price for a tram ticket is EUR 3,00. Get off the tram at the Artis Zoo / Plantage Kerklaan stop. Cross the street and turn right, walking back in the direction you just came from with the tram. Turn left on the first street, which is our street, Plantage Parklaan. We are number 8 on the left side, directly across the street from the Hortus Botanical Gardens. You can also take any metro from Central Station and get out at the second stop, Waterlooplein. Exit the metro and turn right following the sign Nieuwe Herengracht. At the exit turn right. Walk along this street until you see a a small park. Turn left on this street, Plantage Parklaan. We are on the right side of the street at Plantage Parklaan 8. Taxi prices range from EUR 37 - EUR 60,00.
