The Concert Hotel

“Adequate for a few nights and the breakfast had a lot to offer.”

The location is close to the Rijhk museum, Van Gogh museum and other art galleries plus you are quite close to the bus stop when you arrive from the airport.

The location is close to the Rijhk museum, Van Gogh museum and other art galleries plus you are quite close to the bus stop when you arrive from the airport. Also the tram is near by that takes you to the train station. When we arrived, the overall appearance in the entry hall was tired, soiled old looking carpeting, and generally shabby looking, however out room was clean overlooking the street. The window opened giving us a breeze but I’m betting that the third and fourth floor are warm during summer. The two or three staff were very kind and friendly and they put out a fresh breakfast each morning that gave you ample to choose from before going on your way. We had to laugh at the elevator as it just barely held the two of us and our suitcase. Better than a walk up so it did the trick. The nice thing is that it is located in a what felt to be a safe area tho street noises sometimes went on into the night. By then we were in bed. If you are just in Amsterdam a few days this hotel did the trick because it had breakfast available. We didn’t note restaurants in the immediate area open for breakfast.

Not bad, but be aware that the elevator (small by current standards) only goes to the 3rd floor. We were given a room on the fourth floor. We asked for a different room but were told that none were available, so we had to lug our suitcases up a flight of stairs. Our room was small and had limite… more

Not bad, but be aware that the elevator (small by current standards) only goes to the 3rd floor. We were given a room on the fourth floor. We asked for a different room but were told that none were available, so we had to lug our suitcases up a flight of stairs. Our room was small and had limited closet space and no chest of drawers. The shower floor was at the same elevation as the rest of the (small) bathroom, so closing the shower curtain and putting down a floor mat was necessary to keep the water contained. There was no A/C, just a large fan kept in the closet. The hotel was very clean and was within walking distance of all the major museums. Breakfast was good and had a good variety to choose from. However, we would not go back. It was relatively expensive and the price/quality ratio was not that good.

“Family trip to Amsterdam ”

The hotel is somewhat worn and there is more to be desired from the cleaning. However, the location and the breakfast buffet is great and the staff is friendly. The ”family room” with four beds works out perfectly for a family with two kids.
