Very comfortable

This is a perfect hotel for a first trip to Amsterdam. Its location is in a quiet area but close enough to everything if you like to walk or tram stop just outside front door.The staff are very friendly and helpful tickets for attractions or trams con be bought at reception.The living room in hotel is very comfortable and whats not to like about free drinks and snacks.Rooms are comfortable with nice large bathrooms and all amenities you require.I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting this city and look forward to returning sometime.

Perfect hotel!

All other hotels should take not of how to run a hotel from the Banks Mansion: 24/7 access to food and internet included in the room, helpful and friendly staff, and an amazing location within walking distance to everything! Would stay here again in a heart beat.

ideal city hotel

Hotel staff were very helpful right from our arrival. We checked in early and they got our room ready as soon as possible. The bedding and pillows were all duck down, which I am alergic to and they came and changed them immediately. The all inclusive policy is a lovely touch they will even lend you an i pad2 to use during your stay!

Dissapointing

Put lipskick on a pig and it's still a pig! Nice older redone property. Upon arrival found bathroom sink clogged and would not flow. For 3 days staff made excuses that they could not find maintenance man (but would get on from another property if necessary) and sent a sucession of dest clerks to verify it was still clogged. Manager never returned message left for him. Not a pleasant stay!

Love this concept!

We loved the "all-inclusive" concept and hope it will catch on with other hotels in this chain. We met so many people staying at the hotel since the open bar and snacks brought people to socialize and linger in the "living room" area. The staff was fantastic, the breakfast was delicious, the room was large and comfortable, and the hotel is centrally located. Slightly more expensive than other hotels but the extras and the comfortable atmosphere more than made up for it!

A Dutch treat

The all-inclusive feature (breakfast, snacks, drinks) of this hotel made it a splurge, but it really enhanced our stay. Central sights were all within a reasonable walk and the staff was friendly and more than willing to assist with suggestions, directions, dinner reservations, etc.

Nice Hotel

The hotel was very nice and clean, free breakfast in the morning was very fresh. I only wish the front doors were not locked after dark or someone was constantly at the front desk to open them. The location was great as well.

Fantastic hotel - what a find!

Great hotel in a convenient location - easy for tram stops to take you wherever you need to go in the city. Complimentary drinks and snacks were a great feature - perfect for a nightcap. Have stayed in many hotels in Amsterdam and would definitely stay here again.
