The Amsterdam Canal Hotel

If I knew ahead of time that there is no air-conditioning I wouldn't have picked the hotel. There was a dehumidifier in the room that kept making noise I had to attempt calling the front desk several times but no one would answer so I had to go down to ask them to check it out and they said nothing can be done. The bathroom was very clean and spacious but the room floor was stained. There are no elevators wasn't a problem for me but for others might be. I would not stay again in the hotel during this time of the year.

I absolutely loved this hotel. If you're looking for boutique-style hotel with an authentic Amsterdam feel, this is it. It's a smaller operation, but the staff is so friendly and works to be as amenable as possible. Robbin, the hotel manager checked me in. I arrived early in the morning because of a red-eye flight. Even though I was early, they cleaned a room for me quickly, gave me complementary breakfast, and I was in my room within an hour. My room was smaller - most European hotel rooms are - but it was lovely and had port window views of the canal. My room was on the ground floor. Many of the rooms are up steep Dutch stairs. If stairs are an issue for you, you can request a ground floor room. You still have to take stairs to get down to the breakfast/bar/lounge area, though. If you're not prepared for this, then you shouldn't stay here. The breakfast bar area and lounge is lovely. The breakfast bar is included in your rate, but you can ALSO order something off the menu, too, that is also included in the rate. They serve wine in the late afternoons/evenings. The view is spectacular. The only downside is that you can't take food or drink onto the patio because of strict regulations. This hotel really made my stay in Amsterdam unique and gave me a true "Amsterdam experience." The staff, although young, was so helpful and friendly, and everyone speaks English so that made my life easier!

There for 4 days. Weather was amazing. Much hotter for all the days and staff went out of their way to find solutions for the heat in the room. They'd upgraded us and then shifted us to another room due to the heat. Great staff and lovely building.

Lovely hotel. I was upgraded to a suite which lovely although it did overlook the road and there was some tram noise. however, the quality of the room and service made up for it.

Location is central, we walked everywhere up and down the canals taking different routes each day to see all the neighborhoods. The staff is intelligent and extremely helpful. The upper level rooms are not suitable for mature folks but the staff helps with the luggages. All one need to do is ask. Wonderful breakfast with cereals, warm bread , cold cuts and cheese, also hot items made to order. Prosecco is chilled and ready for mimosa with your breakfast.
