We have just returned back to Canada and I wanted to get this review written...
Seven Bridges is for those who want to experience Amsterdam in an authentic artistic way. There is a lily above the sign outside and there was a scent of lillies as we walked into the hallway. Oscar Wilde and the art deco movement immediately came to my mind...
Seven Bridges is a canal house similar to the type Rembrant lived in - a definite visit if you have the time. This is a great opportunity to experience something very unique. The furnishings have been selected with love and care. It is very clean and comfortable. The beautiful breakfast is supplied on exquisite china with plenty extra if you want to pack a little for later (these are heavy trays, but nothing is compromised for the sake of beauty)
The hotel is tasteful, conveniently located to the Rembrant Square, where there are buses and cafes, clean and very elegant. We would definitely recommend it. We took the Garden Room number 4 as we had fairly heavy cases and it wasn't far to go up the stairs. A small passage is part of the room and makes it very convenient to put the luggage there with a glass door that closes into the suite.
Our hosts were very kind and caring... we were very grateful to see some other rooms. Each contains a uniqueness and elegance of its own. I would suggest if you are chosing a room going up the stairs to bring light compact luggage as the stairs are winding and narrow. This is a characteristic of all canal houses, but good to keep in mind.
We would love to come back, and wouldn't hesitate to stay at the Seven Bridges... I would definitely spend more time getting to know local people. Everyone we met were so friendly and kind. I felt a bit strange as we didn't speak any Dutch, but English is used everywhere and nobody makes you feel bad for not speaking their language.
It was a truly unique and authentic experience.

We stayed in Room 7 in September and had a wonderful stay. We especially enjoyed watching the goings-on outside by the canal while having the amazing breakfast and delicious coffee in the morning; or relaxing in the chairs, with the sun pouring in the open windows in the late afternoon, after a day spent walking all over Amsterdam. It was peaceful, lovely, and we will not stay anywhere else when we go back to Amsterdam. Gunter, Erik, and Pierre were great; they had very helpful suggestions about everything we asked about, including what platform to catch our train to Bruges on when we finished our stay with them. We can’t say enough good things about our experience. It was the best place we stayed during our 24 day, 4 country trip to Europe. Pack lightly would be my advice if you’re worried about the stairs.

Great location. Within walking distance of all sights/places of interest. Quirky and interesting decor (antiques, original paintings, etc.) and every room is decorated differently. You can choose the room of your choice online if you book well enough in advance - unfortunately we didn't and ended up with an attic room. Lovely room, but a long way up with bags, etc (no lift!) Friendly service. Great breakfast delivered to room every morning that kept us going all day. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would have no problem returning here. Overall, good value for money.

Many thanks to Gunter, whose hotel provided an appreciative couple with the perfect venue in which to relax for a long (but still too short) weekend.

We stayed in Room C, on the first floor of the town house next door but one to the hotel. It felt like our own private hideaway, with a handsome lounge area separated from the comfortable bedroom by a wood and glass panelled partition.

The beautiful furniture and lighting really made a difference to the atmosphere, and you get a sense that real thought and passion has gone in to this hotel; it's a world away from the bland anonymity of most hotel accommodation.

The room was excellent, and really made our weekend; we looked forward to heading back there after a long day walking the streets of the city, knowing that we had a great place to relax in before heading out for a meal in one of the good restaurants along Utrechtsestraat.

Highly recommended, especially if you want privacy and the space to unwind with a glass of wine after a day exploring Amsterdam.

We stayed in room B a spacious room with a Kitchen cupboard
Separate grubby entrance.
The sheets were not ironed, the paint was peeling and the walls cracked. The crockery had not been washed and the milk had been left in a jug leaving a conjealed rim.
The photos are highly flattering don't be fooled. Very friendly staff Highly overated hotel
