This is a well run and friendly hotel. It is very convenient to walk to all the major attractions. The only downside is that it is right in the middle of the city which has bars playing loud music u til 4 am.

Centrally located hotel. Room was a bit small but was adequate. The shower was large and had great water pressure. The noise from a nearby club mentioned in other reviews did not bother us as we faced the canal.

Great

Excellent location, staff very friendly and helpful. Loved the coffee machine. Rooms are a bit tight, but lovely view of the canal. There is a nightclub on the next street which backs to this hotel. Can hear the base through the walls. Would last till around 3:00 a.m. but if you ask the front desk they will give you ear plugs. Would stay here again.

Hotel Oscar is a great hotel, very clean and right in the center of Amsterdam BUT, I was woken up around 10:30pm to loud music that went on till 2:30am. I will not stay at this hotel again, nor do I recommend it, especially if you are a light sleeper. It is unfortunate, because it is a great hotel--just can't handle the music at night during sleeping hours--maybe the hotel needs to give their patrons ear plugs to help with the loud noise.
