EXCELLENT location if you come in by train. Short walk from station, and right on the main tram line. Amazingly quiet given that it is on the main street coming from the RR station. Very comfy bed. Able to store luggage before check-in and after check-out.

Forewarned there a lot of steep stairs and no elevator. Elderly with big bags is a no-go. Rooms were tiny but neat, clean and comfortable.

The room was conveniently located a few minutes from Centraal Station. The difficult thing we experienced was lugging up our luggage several flights of stairs. Staff were kind and allowed us an early check in. There are lots of shops and restaurants in the area. Don’t get up too early and walk around as I encounter some scroungy looking people.

It's a nice hotel with helpful and friendly staff. Close to Amsterdam Centraal station and lots of cool shops nearby. Only downside is it's not wheelchair accessible.

The staff were very nice and accommodating. I had mostly no issues besides the stairs leading up to the room. But, the room was very clean and after the renovation it looked great. The bathroom was excellent but the room seemed to keep the humidity and warm which made it hard to stay in it during the day. There was an air condition but it was too much to use it. I did enjoy my stay there overall.

There were hiccups for the first 24 hours. However, this was remedied by placing me in a room that matched the photos shown online.

I stayed there 14 days. Hotel was very clean and cleaning crew was very thorough. Desk staff was outstanding, professional, friendly, helpful. I had a health issue beginning day 5 through end of my stay. Desk staff knowing this, brought a tray with hot tea and cup of ice to help with inflammation of my lungs each evening. The most amazing thing was when I went to checkout. A young man about 24 was behind the counter. He knew my situation and insisted to bring my 2 40 pound bags from my second floor room to the lobby. Once he did, he said his shift was over in 20 minutes and he was going to Amsterdam Central as well for his 45-minute train ride home. He insisted on taking my bags for me all the way to Amsterdam Central, a 15 minute walk. The young man not only wheeled my bags to the train station, but he took me to the kiosk to be sure I got the right train ticket, and even though it would make him miss his train and have to wait 35 minutes for another train, he took my and my luggage to the very spot where the train would pick me up and where I could be assured to get a seat. Where do you find such people today? Hotel Van Gelder. My deepest thanks and gratitude. If I ever return to Amsterdam, Hotel Van Gelder would be my only choice.

We loved the location of the property, and our room was comfortable. But when we went to shower in the morning, the handle came off and water shot horizontally at us. We were jet lagged and had slept in too late, so we didn’t have time to find an alternative. So we left with no showers.
