My husband and I stayed here for a week beginning Nov. 7 and we would recommend it to anybody! The Owl hotel have a great location near Vondel Park and close to canals. Our room was very clean and nice if a bit small. Very comfortable bed! Staff was very polite and helpful. We enjoyed having free breakfast each morning.... More

We stayed her one night, 2 adults and 2 kids, and had a lovely room with a beautiful bay window that looked out onto a nice street view of Amsterdam. Very well located (walk to major museums). Breakfast was about average for a 3-star hotel, but the breakfast room is really pretty and the overall ambience is well above average... More

Great location just one block from Leidseplein (behind Marriott Hotel). 10-15€ taxi from Central Station, depending on whether driver uses the meter or makes of a fare. Also Trams 1, 2, and 5 run to/from the station for about 3€ and there is usually space to hold luggage at your feet. Friendly staff offered tourist maps and directions. Unlike the... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in Nov 11, my first visit to Amsterdam. I chose this hotel based on the reviews from trip advisor. The location was within walking distance of several desirable attractions. The staff were very friendly and helpful when asked directions.The buffet breakfast was fine and saved us some money instead of eating in a cafe.... More

Based on reading reviews on Trip Advisor, we decided to stay at this hotel for 2 nights before embarking on a Netherlands river cruise. We took the city bus from the airport into town, but unfortunately we got off at the wrong stop and ended up wandering around for a while with all of our luggage. All we knew was... More

We have just spent three nights at the Owl Hotel for a friends' reunion. The hotel is family-run and consequently has a lovely, friendly atmosphere with extremely welcoming staff at the front desk. The rooms are simply furnished but spotless. We had a bath with great shower over it. The breakfast in the morning is typically Dutch, with one or... More
