    The location was perfect, right next to the station, but the stairs were a real hassle, mate. Clean room though, so that was sweet as.

    steep stairs
    noise levels

    spotless cleanliness, easy access to amenities, convenient daily servicing

    The steep stairs are truly a hassle for bringing up luggage!!! It would also help if noise levels were managed better as guests above can be disturbingly loud!!!

    Basic Stay with Friendly Vibes

    Had a three-night stay as a solo traveler. The friendly staff made check-in smooth, and the comfy bed was perfect after a long day exploring. Be prepared for steep stairs! If you enjoy cozy meals, check out local cafés nearby for some delightful bites.

    historical gem
    old amsterdam charm
    perfectly appointed rooms
    steep stairs
    challenging access

    Staying at Van Gelder felt like visiting a historical gem! The lovely decor, reminiscent of old Amsterdam charm, paired with perfectly appointed rooms made me feel quite cozy. It was a short, pleasant walk to the central sights.

    Steep stairs can be quite challenging.

    great location
    comfortable room
    helpful staff
    steep stairs
    basic amenities
    noisy environment

    I had a pleasant stay for a few nights. The location was superb, with restaurants and shops close by. be prepared for steep stairs which may be challenging for some. The room was basic yet comfortable, but a bit cramped and lacked a kettle. it's a good choice for those seeking an affordable stay in a vibrant area.

    great location
    clean room

    i had a great time at van gelder! the staff were so welcoming and always ready to help with a smile. it was super convenient, being right next to the station, especially with the trains not running due to a strike. they informed me about the bus options for the airport, which was a lifesaver. the room was clean and tidy, making my stay cozy.

    the only downside was the steep stairs, which were a bit challenging with luggage.

    convenient location

    Charming, charming, charming.

    The location was a gem, just a five-minute stroll to the station, making it super easy to explore the area. The atmosphere was inviting, and I loved that I could store my luggage post-checkout to continue my adventures. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the reception was a warm presence 24/7.

    Would recommend! 😊❤️

    local pizza
    convenient bag storage
    walkable area

    Amsterdam's food scene is a feast for the senses! Don't miss Bravi Ragazzi for the tastiest pizza just a stone's throw away, and grab a quick burger at Burger Bar Kolksteeg – it’s a local fave! The hotel’s location also makes it easy to stroll over to the nearby canals, and the staff allowed me to stash my bags post-checkout. A small win!

    It was just a great match for a short visit in Amsterdam with best value. The view from the front rooms was fantastic and made the mornings special. Be ready for lots of stairs.
