We were escaping a nasty Airbnb situation around the corner and they heard our tale of woe and upgraded our room. Excellent location and unique historic vibe. Close to museums, cafe, Vondel Park and transit, yet off the main tourist trail. Beautiful, functional closets, spectacular windows, mini fridge, and bike rentals — all greatly appreciated.

Debra United States of America

Interior, atmosphere, and the restaurant was amazing!!

Jetty Canada

The location is really nice, and the terrace of the wine bar is amazing for a sunny lunch. The rooms were also quite nice.

Selin Netherlands

The hotel was beautiful. The room and bathroom is very modern and spotlessly clean. I wouldn't stay anywhere else when visiting Amsterdam

Harry United Kingdom

The location is perfect for business in the southern areas (RAI etc.) while slso being close to manh cool restaurants and attractions, and far enough of the horror that is the very central Amsterdam.

Antti Finland

We loved the atmospher of this old school building, the restaurant/bar Shiraz, and close proximity to public transit (right out front).

Kristen Germany

Nice and cozy rooms. Goos breakfast options. The light in the room was fantastic.

Alexandra Romania

Location is perfect if you want to stay away from the center's crowd. Rooms are comfortable and staff is very helpful

Gur Netherlands

The staff was fabulous, especially the people behind the desk and the weeknight bartender (really engaging person who knew wine really well)

The location of the hotel makes it so easy for you to ditch the car and walk to get to where you’re wanting to go! My boyfriend and I were needing a place to stay that was in close-ish proximity to the airport (17 minute drive) and it worked out great for us! They don’t offer parking on site, which I was concerned about.. but there are so many nearby streets that make it easy for you to find something! We had awesome interactions with the hotel staff and we loved everything about the hotels look! And for that price?? We highly recommend.
