The room was very large by European standards had a wire mesh patio looking over a courtyard. Near a small grocery store. Near metro line 52 so it is easy getting to train station and central shopping area. Very clean and comfortable. The bathroom had an enclosed toilet area the hinges were still there but no door. The door would make the bathroom more functional But otherwise we had a great stay.

Hotel Asterisk was absolutely incredible! The hotel room was a very generous size, clean and tidy. The staff were extremely kind and even gifted us a free room upgrade upon arrival! The metro station is only a 3 minute walk from the hotel and most attractions/city centre are within walking distance. I can’t recommend Hotel Asterisk enough.

As a solo traveller the hotel could not have been better equipped or situated for me. The hotel is very homely and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and courteous. The rooms were spotless and beds were lovely and comfortable to sleep in. Shared bathroom when I found it was very spacious with plenty of hot water. Altogether a fantastic stay and I would highly recommend this hotel Hope to see you soon. Maxine

We stayed in the building on the other side of the road from the hotel. The stair chase steps are very narrow and step but there is a 2 man list, which I would recommend using. The rooms are very nice and seem to be recently modernised. Would recommend.

A Very Well Run No Frills Hotel
Asterisk is a very well run hotel. It is a combination of simplicity and elegance.The management and staff are very helpful and friendly. Johan a member of the family that owns Asterisk and Augustine a staff member are particularly helpful. They are both very familiar with the surrounding area . Asterisk is well situated and within walking distance to many of Amsterdam’s museums and restaurants. I have stayed at Asterisk on two occasions and intend to return there on my next visit to Amsterdam.

Wonderful hotel and wonderful family run staff. My only recommendation is that they have something available for breakfast; i.e. a fridge in the lobby with juice and yogurt - and/or have free coffee available downstairs. Breakfast restaurants are 10-15 minute walk away and didn't have fridge in hotel room to store food.
