We booked at the Amstelzicht after having a 3 week adventures trip in Morocco. We stayed on the top floor with the view of the Amstel river. So worth it. The view was everything to us . The two blond girls and dutch -moroccon girl that we met at the front desk were great.,very friendly , professhonel and sweet as... more

We travelled in a group of 10 people and had 3 different rooms. I can easily say our room was by far the worst. Our room was at the back of the hotel and faced onto another hotel, in the morning bottle bins where emptied and staff from the other hotel / restuaruant would stand out back smoking and chatting... more

The best things about this hotel are the very friendly and helpful staff and the great location but that's as far the good things go. We booked a quad room for a long weekend in early October and although we knew that we wouldn't be staying in the main hotel and that there was a noisy club nearby, we didn't... more

The hotel building is one of the traditional old Dutch houses, right in front of a pretty canal. The hotel was better than we were led to believe reading certain reviews of other travellers. We had to go up about 57 steps to reach our bedroom but we knew that the hotel did not have lifts. Our room was on... more

The rooms was realy large and clean, 3 windows overlooking the canal. Room was cleaned everyday. The room and service felt like staying in someones home. The room had a minibar, telephone, TV, radio, Coffee and tea making facilties, I loved the curtains, after closing it became realy dark, we could sleep long in the morning. The stairway was very... more

We stayed at Amstelzicht for 5 nights, to celebrate new year. We reserved a canal view apartment. We were doubting after reading some reviews but we have to say we were very happy. We checked in at apartment number 22, the reception told us the apartment was just renovated and we loved it, the stairway was very small and narrow... more

The hotel is located in a really great area, close to the trams and some good restaurants. The view from the front is of the Amstel canal and was really beautiful. I found the reception people helpful and pleasant. The room was kind of creepy. I was a little scared to sleep in the bed (I've heard bad stories of... more

This was a real disappointment. The staff were friendly and I found the ultra-steep stairs a curiosity rather than a hindrance. However the room, which was supposedly one of the best, on the first floor with a lovely view of the Amstel, also overlooked a deceptively small but noisy road while the proximity of an even noisier gay bar on... more

Read the whole write-up please. The hotel location is really central and the view out to the Amstel canal is spectacular - that was the positive. The apartment side of the hotel is in desperate need of upgrading. The first unit we stayed in had no heat (no one was prepared to fix it but they did supply us with... more
