This is a very charming and historic building which I happen to love. The modern decor is a wonderful complement to the old features. The staff was great -. Esp Melanie who did dinner reservations for me, booked taxis, and even made a to go breakfast bag for me when I had to leave very early for the airport. I had a room facing the garden and you can hear church bells — it didn’t bother me but some people may not like. Easy walking to most of the major tourist spots. Would definitely recommend.
Staff was very friendly beginning to end. We got great local recommendations. Room was clean, bed comfortable and loved the dark vibe. In a quieter area but walking distance to everything. Definitely recommend!

It was a quaint European hotel in the heart of town. Convenient for walking and seeing the views. However, the air conditioner did not work efficiently in my room. After i spoke with management, i was given a ton of excuses that were not true. Then i was given a small fan. Management never checked with me again, nor offered any other assistance or help.

I love the original of the hotel overall. The very classic look of every walls, doors, ceilings, lightings etc. Love your bed and pillows. This is a big plus. ❤️But the room with the tub is not very practical.
Amazing hotel. The staff greeted us at the door, opening the door like we were visiting someone’s home. Our room was fantastic. Great hotel & service. Would definitely stay here again.
It was my first visit to Amsterdam; I stayed in Canal House for four nights; this is historic building, total 23 rooms. Staffs are very professional and nice, helpful. Great location for walk around the city, also enjoy the canal just front of Canal. I will select this hotel again for next visit.
We booked the room at the top floor. It's beautiful and HUGE, with a great view of the canal. Loved it. Very romantic. Included breakfast is wonderful, fresh and yummy. Just one weird thing, the first cup of coffee is free but they charge for a second cup of coffee. At the price of this room why ask guests to pay for a second cup of coffee. Seems a little petty.
We are so happy we chose to stay here. I booked a 4 night stay in October 2024 for my boyfriend’s birthday trip and everything from the moment we checked in to the moment we checked out was perfect. Wonderful hospitality, gorgeous room, super comfy bedding and the best location. 10/10.
A romantic escape from the bustle of the elctric city of Amsterdam. Situated in the historic district, and a five-star boutique hotel experience!

The room was nice and had good bathroom but location of our room was above the bar/kitchen area so the noise of loud voices and slamming door went until 11pm or slightly after. Great patio and location and was clean. The room got warm at night and we had to have window open.
