The hotel's location is fantastic, very close to Amsterdam Centraal Station and major tourist sites. The rooms were a bit noisy but generally comfortable, lacking some unique design elements found in other Amsterdam hotels. The service was friendly and accommodating, making our stay enjoyable. The dining options were good quality but somewhat limited. The hotel overall provides good value for the price.

The hotel is in a great central location, a short walk from the main sights, and offers brilliant views over the canal. The rooms, though small, are functional, very clean, and comfortable. The staff is warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful, making the stay enjoyable. The dining options are varied and delicious, with an excellent selection. However, the rooms can become hot at times, especially without a channel view.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, enjoying the quiet ambiance and direct access to a small outdoor corridor, although the lack of insulation in the rooms could be bothersome. The TV placement was a bit inconvenient, but overall, it was a cozy experience. The service staff were helpful, but some noise disturbances and a particular staff member's attitude stood out. The location was great, striking a balance between proximity to the central station and calm surroundings, making it ideal for exploration. Dining options were decent for a day of visits, but not exceptional.

The hotel is ideally situated near Central Station, making it convenient for exploring the city's attractions on foot. Although the location is excellent, guests may encounter issues like getting wet after a shower. The hotel offers a quiet and relaxed setting despite a small dining area constraining seating options.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, just a stone's throw from Centraal Station and surrounded by the charming canals of Amsterdam. The room, located on the top floor, was a cozy haven with its high, beamed ceilings, impeccably clean, and surprisingly quiet ambiance. The service was top-notch, with a super-friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience was a delightful surprise, offering a good selection that saved me from hunting for food. However, the only drawback was the limited vegan options for my husband. Overall, a great value for money and a truly enjoyable stay.

The hotel offers spectacular rooms that are very clean and perfect for our needs, a mix of modern and antique decor exceeding the expectations for a 3-star hotel.
