Great hotel, close to restaurants and venues

Medium-sized family-run bed and breakfast. Strengths were newly renovated breakfast room, quiet area, lovely fellow guests, nice details (e.g. free apples) and short bus ride to airport (Amsterdam itself is also connected by bus or tram, although journey takes about 45 mins). Rooms, although recently redecorated, are already showing significant signs of wear and tear (I rejected two rooms before an acceptable third was found) as were some of the common areas in the main house. Local options for dinner are also limited. With this being said, overall, it was clean, safe, comfortable and came with charm at a fair price.

Everything is quite simply ideal for the leisure traveler. You couldn’t ask for a better location, in the heart of one of the best neighborhoods without feeling crowded or touristy. The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful, and the amenities are excellent. If you plan to do a canal tour, definitely plan to do this through the hotel’s boat, The Tourist, which boasts a historical link to Winston Churchill. We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experiences as well.

Izabela in restaurant area was amazing . What a wonderful human being . Had one issue, my son brought in food and bar tender told us we could eat in bar. We were only people in bar. Then some rude manager came in and told us to leave. Fine . Now no one in your bar. Make sure you are ok same page as workers .
