Love this little boutique hotel, but be warned... no elevator and steep flights of narrow stairs. The staff were amazing though. Helped me with my suitcase every time. I stayed here about 20 years ago and it was lovely to return and see the changes. Historic property. Fantastic location.

It's Amsterdam and very few hotels have elevators. Ask for room on first floor if like me you have bad knees.

The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, from the moment we arrived. The location was perfect, offering a beautiful view that added to the overall experience. The hotel's rich history and unique character made it truly special, while the spacious room provided both comfort and relaxation.

The hotel was generally clean, although it could have been a bit more thorough in some areas. The reception was not open 24 hours, which caused some inconvenience during our stay. Additionally, the beds were quite narrow, making it a bit uncomfortable. The wardrobe was very small, and the stairs were difficult to navigate, whether with or without luggage. While the hotel had potential, these aspects could definitely be improved for a more pleasant experience.

Hotel Amstelzicht is a very old Dutch house and has the traditional staircase. To modern eyes the staircase is steep like a ladder. This adds to the charm of staying here. The staff are super friendly and helpful and have good advice. Due to the steepness of the stairs we were asked if we preferred ground floor or top floor - up 3 flights and we chose top floor. The room was a very spacious attic room with 3 lovely big double glazed windows facing Amstel canal. Great views and no noise. One window could be opened. The bathroom was spacious and very clean. We loved staying in an authentic place and so centrally located. The bed was comfortable and the whole experience was very positive.

For us everything was great. However if you find normal stairs difficult or you travel with a lot of luggage, then this place is not for you. You must be totally self sufficient- no lifts and no bell boys.

The location was fantastic. We had a beautiful room that overlooked the water. Just behind the line of buildings is the Rembrandt square with hustle and bustle of restaurants, quick bites, souvenirs and grab and gos. I loved the charm of the building and ease of access getting in and out with the keys. Our room had a TV, a fan, storage, on suite bathroom. I also liked having a mini bar option as well as being able to store my own water in the fridge. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Although the hotel backs up to many bars, the room was very quiet. I really liked this hotel.

The beds. I wanted to give this place the highest rating for an older hotel but the beds are unbelievably soft. When we sat on them, they sank down and it was very challenging to sleep. When I say soft, I mean worn in. The stairs are very steep so you have to be able to climb them well and carefully. Personally loved the stairs but felt it important to draw attention to these as they are very unique. Update the beds and this place is fantastic.

Location, location, location. The chance to stay in a historic row house was important to me and this definitely fit the bill. Very large and comfortable room for four of us. Blin Queen restaurant next door is great too, quaint, cute and delicious!

Being on the basement floor, we had to put toilet paper into the garbage can because the old plumbing can't handle bringing it up from that level. (This is not the case on the higher floors). Being a VERY old, historic and beautiful hotel, however, meant we didn't mind doing this. We were a group of four so had to have the larger room down there.

Location was perfect. Shops, restaurants and night life few minutes away. The triple room was spacious with a nice view over the river. The room looked the same as on the pictures.

Our room was on the 1st floor and there was a very steep stairs up to it, that was ok for us. It is a little noise in front of the hotel as there are pubs and very lively. It did not bother us, but you have the window closed in the nights at weekends, it is a dbl window so you dont hear much if the window is closed. I think the price for the room is rather expensive compared to what you get.

The building historic features were fabulous and the view from our room was superb! I would stay again just for the view. We were on the 2nd floor, room 207. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was brilliant!

There isn't a lift and when your on the upper floors and with the steepness of the stairs would have been nice if the staff offered to assist us getting up the stairs. I'm not complaining about there being no lift as the building is listed just lack of assistance. The rooms are looking very tired and need updating. Especially the furniture. Lights were very low voltage and so hard to see anything in the room. Some of the power points didn't work. Bits of plaster flaking off. Needs some TLC.

Room: We stayed in a triple room (203), and we were fortunate enough to have a canal view. The room was very spacious and clean, and the beds were comfortable. And as for the view, it was amazing! We were blown away!! Staff: Every member of the staff was friendly and attentive. You could tell they wanted us to have a great time in their hotel and in Amsterdam. Location: Everything is within walking distance of this hotel (if you don't mind getting the steps in) and if you don't want to walk it, the tram stop for the 4 and 14 is right behind the hotel at and the metro is a 5 min walk away.

The staff was amazingly helpful. We had a last minute booking (after running into an issue at the place we originally had reserved for the night) and the location and the room were great! Worked well for us and our 20-yr old daughter, would work well for two couples as well. Spacious. The family room in the souterrain in the front. Surprisingly quiet too, for being in the middle of things. I forgot my laptop bag and computer, and the hotel called me and then held on to it for me for two more nights until I could pick it up on Monday. I would give an eleven if I could.

This property is a fantastic and unique hotel with decent rooms and an excellent location. It’s next door to an amazing pancake cafe and Irish bar with nearby pubs and supermarkets out the back. Central area was a short walk away but anything needed was close in all directions. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. The stairs (which we didn’t need in the end) are incredibly steep and windy but manageable as an able bodied couple. Nothing to complain about :)

We upgraded to a double room from a twin which was well worth the money for the difference and view. Only problem is the double bed was still two mattresses pushed together which, as a couple, wasn’t comfortable.
