Hotel & bar Royal taste Amsterdam

We had the superior room, with the view of the canal. It was roomy, and had everything we needed. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the location was great to walk to various parts of the city. We especially enjoyed the Van Gogh museum.

The property is very close to a large number of bars, restaurants, museums, and, of course, the red light district. Everything in the room worked well but unfortunately this property is very old and we were on the third floor and there is no available elevator. The only big detractor from this property, and it's not their fault at all, is that you are immersed on a very busy street with lots of bars, and as mentioned, the red light district. Which makes for boisterous late night noise and goings on until as late as for or later in the morning. Also, as a result, in the mornings the streets are strewn with trash and other debris. The staff was awesome and having the small bar in the ground floor of the property was hey welcome amenity.

Super friendly staff .. it’s an older hotel and its decor reflects that but everything was clean and we had no issues. It can be loud as you are above the bar but I personally wasn’t bothered by it. No elevator but a staff member helped my elderly friend up and down the stairs with her suitcase. It’s about a 10-15 minute walk to any public transportation but there’s a LOT to see on that walk!

Amazing staff, great location- perfect to explore Amsterdam.
