Definitely a nice place to stay. They are not big on checking in early. I visited in mid-July. Even when I returned to check in after, I had to wait and was given a room next to the elevator which is not ideal since it gets loud. Room was very clean and comfortable with black out curtains. No view. Same for my friend who stayed on a different floor - same room, different side, no view but nice room. Staff were on and off. Some friendly, some awkward. I really liked the location. I don’t like to stay in central areas. I prefer off center in clean and less touristy but nice more local neighborhoods. Lovely neighborhood. Ubers and taxis did take a while the 3x I tried during the weekend.

Upon checking my bank visa statement It appears charges are accurately done first . However, there were two unknown charges in my bank statement that can’t be reconciled with the receipt they printed out for me. A week after we are back from our cruise I wrote to the guest services to enquire about the extra charges, looks like they are in no hurry to answer my questions? Until now, I still have not received good explanation from them to resolve this issue, that I am charged over C$ 500.00! For two mysterious charges In my 4 days still stay. This is not an average hotel, for 4 days two superior rooms cost me over C$5000.00. Although I like the hotel, Pestana cannot randomly charge my visa like this. I am not happy about it! If they don’t give me a good explanation of that, I would say —beware of your visa bill. Don’t leave the front desk until they explain everything to you. Otherwise, a nice surprise will be followed later…just be careful! Keep all your receipts ! Now depending how they handle my situation that will determine if I would recommend or use this hotel in the future!! Thank you!

Overall enjoyed our stay. There was a mix up and our room we booked was not available first night. Placed in a smaller room but they made up for it. They put us in the mezzanine suite next day which felt much bigger than the first suite. The only downside was the upstairs bed did not seem to circulate air. The vent is on lower level. The bed was not as comfortable as it could have been. We rented some bikes from the hotel and the first one we rented had a broken back wheel which really put a damper on our plans as we had to ride back. The next bike had a broken child seatbelt. Overall the staff were kind and helpful. Hotel was clean and really pretty.

* Polite, super attentive staff. * Clean, calm vibe with a light touch of elegance * The primary builiding of the hotel is nestled in a historic building, which brings such charm. * Easy Uber/Taxi pick up/dropp off. * The beds were comfortable and the shower worked well with good water pressure abd temperature.. * De Pijp is a lovely neighborhood for walking, light shopping, libations and meals.
