Selecting a hotel in Amsterdam was very difficult, as there were so many mixed reviews. I finally picked this one as the negative comments were minimal and it had air conditioning, and we did need it! This hotel was located along the relatively quiet Singel canal. As we ventured out toward the Dam Square and the pedestrian shopping street, we... more

We stayed for 6 nights at this "canal house" hotel. It was perfect in every way from the canal side location, to its beautifully maintained and furnished interior, to its friendly and helpful staff. more

The bathroom was lovely with a big walk in shower, double sinks and a big jacuzzi. In the lobby guests are provided... more

It's a 10 minute walk from The Dam, a 30 minute walk from Central Station and a 40 minute walk from the Van Gogh museum. Almost all of the other museums are within... more

A friend and I stayed there during our 24-hour man-on-a-mission-trip to Amsterdam. We didn't spend much time at the hotel, but still managed to use most of its services/features (breakfast, free coffee/candy, internet in lobby, chill in the library). The ground floor is beautiful, just like the pictures, and the breakfast was good -- they serve it until 11 am... more
