Very cute room and balcony with view of the canal. Beware of difficulty getting ubers to and from hotel. After a certain hour theyre not able to get right in front of the hotel. Didnt quite figure out what hour that was but otherwise, everything was perfect.

Such a great hotel in a great location. The restaurant is outstanding! Rooms are clean and comfortable. Everything feels relatively new. Location is in the theater district and walking distance to the museums. Lots of public transportation options right in front of the hotel.

Amazing Hotel
Wow. This was the first time for us in Amsterdam and wasn’t sure where to stay but we wanted to be close to the museum quarter and Leidesplien, and that’s why we chose this hotel- but let me tell you the next time we go back, I’ll be choosing this hotel not only for the location but for the excellent service from every single person we encountered at the property. And about the property- it is one of the most beautiful buildings right on the canal, with a wonderful bar (they had the best biterrballen in town) and we had morning coffee at the attached restaurant with a great view of the city square. Take a canal cruise which is located across the street from the hotel. I can not recommend this hotel enough

I had such high hopes for this hotel. It was fabulous from the outside and reception was beautiful. They allowed us to check in early which was great. I had ordered a bottle of white wine for the room for my husbands birthday, and paid for it the day before arrival. They tried to charge me again for it on check in. We booked a deluxe double room but it was anything but deluxe sadly. Tiny room with a balcony, overlooking a nightclub. The carpet had stains on it. There was half a smoked cigarette butt on the table inside the room and the room smelt of smoke. I then went to use the bathroom which was small but really lovely, only to dry my hands on a towel covered in what I assume was make up stains. It had been washed but the stains were all over the towel. We rang straight down to reception to complain and they came straight up with fresh towels and apologies, I asked about another room but they didn’t seem keen to move us. Friday night (the day we checked in) I was kept awake all night by the nightclub noise across the road. So loud until 3:30am! Given this is probably a regular complaint I’m surprised that guests aren’t offered complimentary ear plugs. I had to go and buy some the next day. The bed however was extremely comfortable. On check out they tried to charge me a third time for the bottle of wine I’d already paid for. This just left a bitter taste! So disappointed as the area was perfect but really expected better from this hotel. I doubt we’d stay again.

Having never been to Amsterdam we randomly selected this hotel based off other Expedia user’s comments and we are SO GLAD WE DID! This was one of the nicest hotel I have stayed at in Europe for this price point. Super swanky and a great vibe. We had a wonderful balcony that overlooked the city which which we enjoyed with a bottle of wine people watching. 10 out of 10!

This was our 3rd stay here but this time we had a Junior Suite and the bed was on a mezzanine floor above the entrance and bathromm. This gave us the whole of the original room floor spae in which to lounge and relax. There was a balcony looking out ov er the canal, perfect for that 1st cup of coffee. All in all one of the best hotel rooms we've had. The staff were all very friendly and calm. the location is fantastic being only a short walk from several tram routes. It was always easy to get back to the hotel. Although close to the busy Leidseplein it was also near the Vondal Park and Museums so near less tourist orinted bars and restuarants. All in all the perfect location. My only complaint would be the standard lamp in the room. It was just too big and wherever I put it it was always in the way!

Hotel was great, had the standard room, which is a little small, recommend upgrading to larger. We too much to see. Balcony was looking at the fountain which was nice except that you smell everyone smoking below or in the adjacent balcony. Area is a little noisy, lot party people walking around but not offensive.
