Our room was in the basement. It was a good size and clean but the only window was onto the pavement so that all you could see was people's ankle's walking by (and don't be fooled, from the pavement passers-by can see much more of you!). I asked whether it would be possible to move rooms. I was shown to... more

Amsterdam is definately one of our favorite places in the world, and we like to come here often. Friends that came over in december recomended this hotel, so we booked for 4 nights. We were very surprised by the earlier comments made in another review, because we had an AMAZING time in hotel Vondel! Yes the rooms might be a... more

Overwhelming sewer stench in prison cell size room. Indifferent staff. Is there a manager? In hiding? All requests for help ignored. Predatory pricing of these substandard rooms. Pickpockets at entrance can easily take the lift to upper floors and attack anyone in the dark winding corridors. For health and safety, try one of the many clean comfortable hotels in the... more

The stairs up to the room are so steep to begin with u can barely walk horizontal up them!!u have... more

The hotel had a really nice vibe. Staff were friendly and helpful, location great and the decor pleasant. However, our room was miniscule and could have substituted for the hotels sauna. There was no A/C, which in a modern hotel charging those prices is unforgivable. For that reason alone, we would not recommend this hotel in the summertime. more

This is a great hotel. Great location to see the museums and enjoy Vondal Park a must. We traveled with our 6 month old and were treated very well. We booked on the Hotel web page which I would highly recommed, "small double room" with a child cot. On our arrival we were informed that the small double room is... more

My partner took me to Amsterdam for a surprise birthday trip & we stayed at the Vondel for 2 nights. It certainly looked the part, stylish & secluded, down a rather pleasant side-street. It's also certainly well placed in Leidseplein, 10 minutes by tram from central station & near to museums & numerous bars & restaurants. The basement room we... more

This is really a nice and very calm hotel. The whole style is very modern and the rooms are quite trendy. The restaurant is good even if you come with groups of 15 people, same counts for the breakfast. more

It doesn't matter how deco the lobby, bar & resto are of a hotel if the walls are paper thin & the doors slam for each guest room. My first night was a TERRIBLE night being woken by the people next door (talking, coughing you can actually hear thru the walls!) AND hearing guests in the hallway at 1, 2... more
