Clean, air-conditioned hotel with a very good continental breakfast. Located very close to the Dam Square area, which is incredibly crowded at almost all times. Within a short walk of Amsterdam Central Station and tram and metro stops.

The hotel was exceptionally clean & its location of 1 minute walk to Dam Square & the Palace was brilliant. All the expected attractions spread out from Dam Square making the choice of visiting other locations on foot so easy. The staff at the hotel remained low key yet accessible at all times. The hotel was very clean & the continental breakfast was lovely. We would definitely recommend this hotel for it location & facilities.

A decent three-star hotel with a great location. It's situated in a historic building that captures the character of the city. The decor is minimalistic, but the place is very clean. The staff is well-trained and attentive to the needs and concerns of travelers. I would especially like to highlight the excellent breakfasts and the cozy restaurant.

It was difficult to find with Google maps. So heads up, it’s right behind the old church, off Dam Square, on a charming little street, full of restaurants and a Chinese massage a few doors down to help your traveling feet recover.

Great Location

I have traveled to Amsterdam numerous times. This time as a 70 year old man. For me, now, I prefer a more comfortable stay. The location is ideal. The room borders on being small since we had to layout our two suitcases on the floor. The bathroom is adequate though small and the shower is small. If location is important this location is great.

Best Western Dam Square was a great choice for us in Amsterdam. Typically, we try and book into a local hotel (vs chain) This BW is unlike any north-American hotel... and is definitely a great hotel to stay at in Amsterdam. It's location "(10 min walk to Central Station) is great. It is also a unique, old building, along a typical narrow cobblestone street. Amazing shopping and restaurants are immediately accessible. Staff were friendly and helpful. The available breakfast was very good, with good variety. Our room was very comfortable and had everything we needed! So happy to have stayed here!
