We were in the annex building. The rooms were exactly what we needed. The coffee in the lobby in the morning was lovely. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the museum district. So many food options nearby too. Absolutely recommend this hotel! And it has an elevator for those with mobility issues!

I really liked my stay here with one exception… no A/C They did provide an oscillating fan which was helpful but I still found the room too warm for a good sleep. The staff went above and beyond to help me stow my luggage for the day as my departure wasn’t until late. Cute place! Great location. Very peaceful and easy to walk wherever you want to go

The location of this hotel was amazing! It’s right by a tram stop and just close enough to the action while being quiet and peaceful night. The staff were so kind and helpful. The rooms were bigger than most I’ve had in Europe and were very clean. I would definitely stay here again and I recommend you do too!

Easy to get to from the airport within 100 meters of the tram line and a Metro station. Shopping, restaurants and grocery store just as close. Despite being conveniently located we never heard street noise. Before we even entered the hotel we were taking pictures of the gorgeous plantings they had in front of the building. The staff was always friendly and helpful. They have a nice reception area with drinks, snacks and games. The room was very clean and comfortable and best of all an elevator so we didn’t have to lug our bags up the stairs. Certainly worth the price and we will be staying there again on our next trip to Amsterdam
