Was a great surprise of how nice this hotel is. It was a last minute booking as were we delayed here. The staff wasa very friendly and the room came with a wonderful breakfast for our family every morning.
Staff were very friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome during our stay. When I come back to Amsterdam, I will book my stay here again!
This is such a unique property and I ended up just really loving it. I originally booked a two night stay but extended it to four, after discovering that luckily my room was available for the next nights. (Each room is unique. I was in the Cartographer Room, with its map theme and decorations. To be sure, there are things to be aware of: I am 6 ft 1, probably the maximum height for my room, as the beams from the 17th century ceiling are low (there were two places I needed to duck under). The ancient stairway is super narrow and a bit claustrophic. There is an elevator, but it is coffin-sized. I put my luggage in it, but there was no way I was getting in it myself. All that said, the opportunity to stay in such a historic building with amazing canal views and unique style and decor just made it a joy to stay here. My room had a bear claw tub in a small elevated area -- very relaxing. The breakfast they serve (included with room price) is ample and tasty. You can enjoy it in room or in a little eating area overlooking the canal. I really loved staying at the Craftsman. It is truly a unique and cozy experience.
This place was AMAZING. the staff was AMAZING. the hotel, the breakfast, the service, the location were ALL AMAZING. if we got back to Amsterdam, we are definitely staying there again.
This was easily one of the best lodging experiences in a long long time for this veteran, global, road warrior. The hotel is exactly as billed: the quintessential boutique hotel experience. We were only here one night but are already making an effort to return to Amsterdam if only to have The Craftsman be our primary destination and lodging.
From the quirky, unique rooms to the phenomenal fresh breakfast (holy cow they turn the typical dutch breakfast offered at other upscale lodgings on its head), the overwhelming memory was of the very personalized service. Claudia in particular, but really the entire staff.
Excellent place to stay.
Very nice and friendly staff. They have a whole package ready with suggestions of what to visit, where to eat and shop. Great location.
A warm welcome on arrival. Gorgeous and quirky rooms. Great location within walking distance of train station, Anne Frank House, canal boat tours, museums and shops. Lovely breakfast in the Gallery with fresh fruit and yogurt, meats, cheese and bread/croissants. All staff super friendly and helpful. We stayed in the Clockmaker Room in the first floor which had lovely views over the canal. Would definitely return.
Our stay at the Craftsman was so special. The room was wonderfully quirky, beautifully designed and felt luxurious. The breakfast was healthy and tasty. It’s the service though that really makes it stand out. The staff were so welcoming, friendly and seemed genuinely interested in sharing their love for the city. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for making our stay so wonderful.
Beautiful hotel in a great location, easy to walk around the city. We stayed in one of the lofts, which had a lovely view of the canal. Breakfast was included and delicious. They have thought of all the little touches to make your stay special.
