Quiet location away from the hustle of Central station. Within walking distance to all major attractions. Not far from the Rijksmuseum. Many places to find food or drink just off the Main Street around the corner from the hotel. We would most definitely come back to this hotel. Very clean bathrooms with great shower.

Beautiful boutique hotel at the edge of Amsterdam Centraal, right by canals and tram, easy to get to fr transit, super accessible walking but also quiet area. Friendly staff at front desk always, incredibly comfortable single beds in a 3-person room. The one thing I will say: shut your toilet lid before flushing, the bowls are SHALLOW!
