Rooms are small and very noisy. Hotel have renovations going on, so don’t plan to sleep after 7am, that’s when they start. Rooms are cold, no heat. Was offered portable heater.

Had a construction right on my window. Woke up at 7am because of super loud swirl sound. Also had to keep the curtains shut the whole time to avoid builders see me

Horrible experience at this hotel. We were not notified that there would be any construction, when we arrived at our room there was scaffolding on all of our widows with 4 men standing there. We immediately went back downstairs to complain and the team was “unable” to cancel our booking even though we were completely unaware that this would be the case. I urge you to book elsewhere

Unfortunately, I had a negative experience at this hotel due to early morning construction. Work on the roof began at 6:30 am, disturbing my and other guests’ sleep. Despite raising this issue with reception multiple times, I was informed that construction wouldn’t start until 9 am, yet it continued earlier than stated.The hotel offered a €25 voucher as compensation. However, given the impact on my stay, I felt this was inadequate.In terms of accommodations, the hotel felt more in line with a 3-star rating. The rooms were small, lacked basic amenities like a desk, and were dark, especially in the mornings.I hope this feedback helps the management improve the guest experience.

A beautiful hotel located close to Dam Square. It is considered the center of Amsterdam and close to places worth visiting. At the time of our stay, there was restoration work and workers were at the windows all day.

DONT BOOK HERE!!!! This was booked by my partner for my birthday. Upon arriving at the hotel , I had to come back at 3 as the rooms were not ready. They said to come back or we could pay for every hour we wanted earlier. On our return we were waiting a while to receive our key cards and we asked to sign something to say if there is any smoking we would be charged €250 which is fine as we have the same policy's in the UK.Some parts of the hotel are a little dated, but the room appeared to be clean but was smaller than expected...the bathroom was very, very cramped.The TV was not working, we rang reception to which they said nobody is around to fix it and someone will have it sorted the next day which never happened!On our last day we came back and couldn't get into our room, I went to reception and they said there were cigarette butts outside our window and Ash on the windowsill, which they decided to blame us, furthmore we have our window open therefore it was plausible for someone from a higher up room to be smoking however they were not interested, once they had charged that fee they didn't want to hear what we had to say. The worst part of this is that me or my partner do not smoke yet we have been charged and accused of this.Thereafter, I ran my finger across the skirting and it was filthy with dirt.I travel quite regularly and have never come across anything like this before, please be cautious when booking here.
