The highlight for us was the complimentary happy hour from 4-6pm for all guests. They have beverages and snacks including beer, wine, charcuterie board snacks, and nuts. They offer free coffee and water, including sparkling water 24/7 which was very helpful and saved us a bit of money. Very helpful and friendly staff.

We loved the balcony room overlooking the canal we stayed in. Staff were friendly and so helpful with any questions. Stairs are steep and narrow and there is no lift which was fine for us but may not be for others. We would definitely stay here again.

We were so happy with our accommodation. Sasha at the desk was very helpful. Morning coffee on the patio on the canal was a dream come true. We loved the “happy hour” Provided by the hotel- it was a great way to meet other guests. The room was historical, romantic and well maintained. We loved Amsterdam and would definitely stay there again.
