    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.

    Perfect little and brand-new room, fairly clean hotel in general.

    Everything was perfect, very good service, amazing location near to centre of Amsterdam as well as the channel, in the Amsterdam downtown. Plenty of food for the full English breakfast. A really good way to end my trip.

    steep stairs
    noise levels

    super clean cleanliness, easy access to amenities, convenient daily servicing

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

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

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

    Steep stairs can be quite challenging.

    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 good bites.

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

    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.

    cute staff
    great location
    clean room

    The staff were so cute 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, a lifesaver. The room was clean and tidy.

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