Hotel Nes Amsterdam

The hotel is well located near the downtown area and very close to restaurants, bars, bakeries and anything else that you may need in respect to food and drink. The desk personnel were extremely friendly and very helpful when we needed directions. Many attractions are within walking distance, 10-30 minutes. The coffee maker in the room was a welcome touch. The shower in the bathroom was strangely placed as it was basically open to the rest of the room and the entire floor got wet when using it. Personally, I found the bed to be very comfortable although my wife found it hard and said that it hurt her back. It was also placed almost directly on the floor so being 65 and 66 years old we found it a bit difficult getting in and out of it, especially myself as my side was up two steps and therefore lower to the ground than my wife's side. All in all, the hotel is in a great area and understanding that this is Europe, the rooms are small and sometimes strangely constructed. I would still recommend this hotel.

The view was spectacular! The beds were very comfortable. The location is close to excellent bistros and boutiques that we enjoyed. The front desk is awesome! They made us feel welcome, gave us great service and hospitality. They even held some luggage for us for 1 week while we visited Kenya, and when we came back in the early morning until check in. The daily breakfast is delicious and healthy. Definitely try the coffee! We stayed here twice and would do it again.

Helpful staff

This hotel is an older property located beautifully walkably in the historic district. The rooms are small. There is an elevator, which is recommended because in old Dutch buildings the stairs are amazingly steep! But yes, a perfectly good elevator. The staff is very helpful , The front desk is open 24 hours. The breakfast is good. There is a common sitting area with books and you can store your luggage for free as a guest. I highly highly recommend the location !
