Amazing stay
Location was great, wakable distance, yet not in the caos of city Center. View from room amazing. Staff súper friendly. Details such as cava as a welcome present, ir free happy hour in the afternoon were amazing. Breakfast delicious. The only con las the stairs. Heretage building with sharp stairs made it very difficult with bags.

A great hotel, in a great position. Located in the south of the city, near a metro station (for links to the rail network and the airport) and near the market. The more touristy/central area is around a 15-20 minute walk. We plan to visit the city again and will definitely look to stay at this hotel again.

The best of the hotel is its location. The subway is in walking distance; it is close to the museums. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and gave good advice about the city. There is a happy hour in the hotel with free drinks between 4pm and 6pm every day. The stairs to the rooms are steep; you need to be able to navigate them.

I like how it is conveniently located close to the Van Gogh museum, the Heineken experience and the boat tour that we signed up for. All other tourist spots are 1-2 train stops away. Room is clean and has the essentials. Will book this hotel on our next visit.

We had a great stay. Nothing fancy but clean, easy Metro access, walking distance to all attractions. Would definitely stay there again. There is no elevator so you may have to climb the stairs to the 3rd floor. Wasn’t a big deal.

We had a wonderful view of the canal from our window. The breakfast in the morning was very handy and the eggs cooked to order were good. There was a rare heat wave (high of 87 F) and the air conditioning was fantastic. The room was cramped for 2 people ( sit on bed to use laptop) and the bed a bit lumpy and hard. Overall very pleasant.

Charming hotel but not for everyone
The Amsterdam Canal Hotel boasts a fantastic location and beautiful historical charm. The staff were genuinely nice, which was a definite plus. However, our stay was significantly impacted by a broken air conditioning unit, leaving the room uncomfortably hot with no effective solution offered beyond opening windows. The bed also wasn't the most comfortable. While the building's historical aspect is lovely, the overall decor felt quite outdated.
