Room was Spacious, got more beds than I had expected which was a bonus. The staff very helpful and friendly. Location was perfect for us, wasn't in a really busy street of Amsterdam which was ideal, but only 10 mins from the main street outside Amsterdam Centraal and 2 minutes from a busy street where things are going on.

Clean room, would have been 5 star rating except for the smelly bathroom, clean but smelly, and the lack of a view. The staff were fantastic, friendly and looked after our luggage after check out while we enjoyed the last day sight seeing. There was a free drink for us in the snug friendly bar.

Great Stay But tiny rooms

The location is excellent, close to the Anna Frank House, restaurants, the Dam Square, and more. The hotel is cute, modern, and clean, but the rooms are tiny even for European standards. The staff are ok, some nicer than others, and not always so helpful. In general, I would recommend the Sebastians.

I’ve stayed in Amsterdam nine times and have never experienced anything like this. My stay at this hotel (Oct 21–26, 2025) became a nightmare when my room started to smell strongly of sewage. The first night was fine, but by the third night, the smell was unbearable. Staff acknowledged the odor immediately and took apart the shower, then sprayed a harsh chemical scent to mask it, which made things even worse. When I returned later, the smell was stronger than before. The staff admitted they had been discussing the issue in a group chat all day, yet they did nothing to properly fix it. One even tried to gaslight me by saying it was “normal because of the rain.” I asked to speak with the manager but was told they were unavailable and only communicating by text. The hotel was fully booked and refused to move me, offering only a free drink and breakfast if I stayed in the same room… which was completely unlivable. I had to leave two days early and find another hotel at my own expense (about $750 CAD more), plus an Uber, and I had to pay city tax again since they refused to refund the unused nights. They eventually agreed to refund the final two nights, but the amount offered was less than what I paid. Their follow-up response focused only on “fixing it for future guests” and showed no accountability or care. The room was uninhabitable, my clothes now smell like sewage and chemicals, and the handling of the situation was appalling. I will never stay here again.

If you’re looking for a beautiful little boutique hotel in a great, quiet, safe neighborhood, that’s close to everything, this is the spot. 10 minute walk to central station, less than 5 minutes to great restaurants, bars, coffee shops. Interior decor throughout is sublime, especially the bar/lounge area which offers a lovely peaceful retreat to reflect on your day with a canal view. Staff were both welcoming and knowledgeable. I loved Sebastian’s so much that I booked again for my last night in Amsterdam after being in Belgium. I was greeted with a handwritten note, welcoming me back, and the t-shirt I’d managed to leave in my room the week before, which they had offered to ship back to the states. My only regret is that I couldn’t stay longer. Thanks to all at Sebastian’s.
