5 minute walk from Centraal Station. Great little place. Just right for 1-2 nights. Bed was comfy. Love the location and bar downstairs.

Ginger, United States of America

A person should attend the heavy luggage to carry over to higher floor bcos property is without lift.

Sanjay, Colombia

The bed was quite comfortable, the room very clean, the bathroom modern and the innkeeper very helpful!

Nancy, United States of America

Perfect location for someone wanting to stay in the middle of the buzz and close to RLD

Jad, Lebanon

I stay at the Old Nickel every time I go through Amsterdam if it's available. The location is easy access and I really enjoy the bar downstairs. The upgrades have been great and it's always clean.

Teresa, United States of America

We stayed on the first floor facing the street. The room was very clean and right in the middle of the city blocks from the red light district. The beds were comfortable. Lots of restaurants close to the hotel.

Betti, United States of America

The location of the hotel is great and at center of things. From it you can walk basically to the main attractions you need. It is also close by very good restaurants. The staff are kind and communicative.

Majd, Israel

Very central location, comfortable and clean rooms

Ieva, Germany

Know that you are paying for location not luxury and you will be satisfied with this hotel. Its got the basics, bed, toilet, shower, locking door. You check-in in the small pub on the ground floors and rooms are a steep staircase or two above. Ideal if you don't mind stairs, looking for a good location and plan to spend most of your time outside of the hotel exploring all that is Amsterdam!

Melinda, United States of America

Best location ever, right next to the red light district but not in it. Tons of restaurants, tattoo parlors and shops. Five minute walk from Amsterdam Centraal - making it easy to get to the hotel from the international trains as well as making it easy to explore further around the city. The room was clean and the bedding was changed daily. Can’t tell you how much we loved the location!
