I was charmed as soon as we walked through the breakfast room on the way to our room - there are wonderful paintings on the ceiling! Our room had small, realistic paintings of parrots at various and surprising places throughout the room. While the furniture is modern, the rooms are very clean and comfortable and the paintings bring the charm to the rooms that the furniture does not. The staff is very helpful and engaging, recommending good places to eat and even showing us some empty rooms near ours so we could view the paintings in them. The breakfast offers a variety of items from fruit and cereal to eggs, meat and tasty cheeses. The location is on a quiet street that is conveniently located. For the price this place is the best and we will definitely stay here for each visit to this wonderful city.

Me and my boyfreind just come back from a 3day break for my b-day, my boyfriend had emailed them before we went and asked if they could leave flowers or chocolates in our hotel room as a surprize! and they sure did, which was lovely. When we arrived we were welcomed with tea/coffee, which i hadnt experienced before,after a long day travelling from pembrokeshire you were dying for a nice cup of tea!

We read that the rooms were small but the one we had was quite Spacious,including the bathroom which i was suprized of after reading other reviews.
(ROOM 401)our room was nextdoor to the main entrance to the hotel and had a canal view. Rooms were warm and most of the windows opened.
We had a bath/shower with a a range of accessories (shower gel, shower cap etc...). Rooms were equipt with iron and hair dryer, no telephone tho. Rooms were cleaned everyday.

For breakfast, there were a choice of cereals, meats, bread and boiled egg. with many diff teas, coffee fresh orange juice and water. Coffee, tea and water was available 24 hours. There was also a snack vending machine in the breakfast area. We also had coffee/tea making facilites in our room.
The hotel is situated in a residential area which is 5-10 minute walk to the main streets and central station and within walking distance to the red light district.
Staff were very freindly and went out of there way to make you feel welcomed.
We highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in amsterdam.

stayed three nights at Hotel New Amsterdam in Jan 06; excellent location, handy to all sights and amenities without being in the midst of it all. Accommodation was very clean and modern, yet with great character (especially if you are on the third floor up three very steep flights of stairs!). Coffee on tap was very welcome after busy days out and about. Best point was undoubtedly the friendly informative staff who did all they could to make our short visit the best. Great accommodation at a great price. Would highly recommend this hotel for your consideration next time you are staying in Amsterdam.

My wife and I were for 2 nights in this well situated hotel close to all that happens in Amsterdam. On foot we could reach most of the buildings we wanted to see. The room was very snugly and had all we needed. The breakfast surpriced us with fresh fruit, drinks and all kinds of food in a clean and nice setting.
The people were very helpful. We were very satisfied.
