Excellent experience at Hotel van Gelder

The location of the hotel is perfect, just a few meters away from the central station. Additionally, the staff was very kind, solved all my questions and the room was very clean. Price-quality was amazing and would love to stay there again because of the service.

This is a basic walk up hotel- bed and bath. Steep staircase to lobby one floor up. Next floor staircases are curving and narrow. Lounge has a nice lookout onto Damrak. Friendly staff, not much flexibility in rooms. Close to downtown train station. Walkable to everywhere. Suitable for a short stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel boasts a fantastic location, just a short stroll from Centraal Station, making it incredibly convenient for exploring Amsterdam's attractions. Nestled in the heart of the city, it offers easy access to numerous sights and experiences. The staff were exceptional, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout my stay. My room was peaceful and comfortable. While the bed could have been a bit softer, that’s just a matter of personal preference. Overall, I would definitely return and stay here again.

The staff was extremely helpful and very pleasant. Location was easy to get to from the airport and convenient to many places we wanted to visit. The stairs to our 2nd floor room was daunting but very picturesque.
