Nice boutique hotel in a great area of the city if you want to be close to the train in a nice neighborhood but away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy centrum area and main boulevard. It was our 4th time staying here. The staff is great and knowledgeable, and the decor and rooms are charming, but small, as are the bathrooms. There’s someone at the front desk 24/7 which is a plus. The lobby has a nice sitting area and bar. The 1st and 2nd levels are fairly accessible, but be prepared to climb steep narrow stairways if you’re on the 3rd or 4th level. The staff is ready and waiting to assist with your bags if needed, so not an issue.

Charm wins in Amsterdam canal district
Super little boutique hotel in one of the loveliest spots in the canal district. Welcoming staff and sweet rooms although very small, as I suspect many rooms in such a district would be as the buildings are so old. However, if you like charm, proximity to the most beautiful parts of Amsterdam and a relaxed vibe, you would love Max Brown Hotel, Canal District. Also very close to Amsterdam central station so saved money on taxis.

No air conditioning and room was hot at night, although 50 degrees outside. Windows open but no airflow. Staff was great and very helpful. We had steep stairs to climb to room, fine for us, but some may find difficult with luggage. I'm sure the staff would assist though. They were very kind.

Clean, cozy and in a beautiful location
I really enjoyed my stay here. It is located on a beautiful, quiet little street but is only steps away from numerous shops and restaurants. It is also a very short walk to Amsterdam Central Station. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable, and the fan and electric kettle were both nice touches.

The property was very close and walkable from the train station. It's about a 20 min. walk to the museums. There were great restaurants in the area. The staff was excellent - young, friendly and spoke perfect English. One thing we didn't consider was how hot our room was. It dropped to the 50s at night, but we had no air circulation with the window open. There was a small fan in the room, but it was loud and rattled. Wish I'd booked a hotel with an air conditioned room in hindsight.

We stayed here our first night in Amsterdam. Our room wasn't ready when we arrived but we were able to freshen up and check our bags before exploring the city. The staff gave us recommendations for restaurants and helped us navigate the train and tram app. Although the room was small, it's exactly what we needed for our stay.

We loved the area around the hotel. Close enough to train station to walk to but still in a quieter area right on Canal. Close to lots of good little cafes. We got a great room with view of canal but be aware of steep steps 3 floors up. Friendly staff helped tote our bags up and down which helped!
