1/1 found this review helpful

We originally booked our room there because of it's location and it's price, but we have found that there really is nowhere else to stay while in Amsterdam.
The Staff: Always called us by our first name. They gave great recommendations on where to visit, and were extremely friendly.
The Location: Right next to the Red Light District, but was extremely safe. Only a 5 minute walk from Centraal Station.
The Rooms: Very adequate. We had rooms w/ private showers, and public restroom. The rooms were fine in size, and were very clean.
The Price: For 40 Euro a night (for a single) you can find cheaper, but certainly not better. I witnessed a couple stop in and were quoted a price, they viewed a room and said "we may be back". 2 hours later, after I'm sure higher prices and worse rooms, they came back. They should have saved that 2 hours!
The Bar: Wonderfully stocked bar, great service. Every request was met with "Certainly sir".

In conclusion, you may find cheaper, you may find more extravagant rooms, but you will not find a better deal w/ a better experience w/ Hotel The Crown! Highly reccomended. Ask for Mark!

I found The Crown on my first trip to Amsterdam after I was unable to book another night at my $120 a night hotel. It was great and I have stayed there on my past 3 visits to Amsterdam.

The best thing is the bar. You can drink late and it is "smoke" friendly. The bartenders are cool and they have remembered me from one year to the next. It is centrally located around several coffee shops and the red light district.

For the price, you will not find a better location. The rooms are small but have everything you need. They are very clean as well.

While I do usually stay at higher end hotels on my trips, I will never stay anywhere else in Amsterdam. I love the Crown!!
