We stayed in the Posthoorn for 2 nights over a very sunny May bank holiday weekend. While I had studied in the Netherlands for a year while at college (a long long time ago!) my wife had never been to Amsterdam so it was a good excuse to reacquaint myself with the city after more than 15 years absence bar...

This B&B is on the Prisengracht, one of the nicest areas of Amsterdam, close to the Jordaan and only ten minutes walk from the train station, yet well away from the trashy touristy bits of Amsterdam. Francois, the owner, is a perfect host; he was full of information on where to go and where to eat and we visited several... More

We had a wonderful week at the Posthoorn and will definitely return. It is convenient to the central train station, yet well away from the trashy touristy areas. The location on the Prinsengracht is very scenic and convenient to the Jordaan, Anne Frank House, and the seven streets district. Breakfast was delicious and ample.

My partner and I stayed in this BnB for two nights on our first trip to Amsterdam in February this year. Following Francois' clear instructions to get us on foot from the train station to The Posthoorn, we were warmly greeted and shown to our Canal View room. The room was spacious, warm with a wonderful bathroom and bed. Despite... More

The B&B was amazing! The room was clean and quaint, beautifully decorated. The friendly host, Jasper showed us the incredible historic building, explaining the tunnel under the canal used by the underground church! He delivered a lovely picnic basket to our door in the morning full of breakfast items and the room fridge was stocked with drinks, even beer and... More

We stayed at the Posthoorn late December 2012 for a romantic short holiday. The location was fantastic, very close to everything...train station, Square, Tourist attractions, markets etc. The room was very comfortable, breakfast very nice and fresh. The staff were excellent, informative and friendly I would certainly return, very highly recommended. Ajay
