Velvetamsterdam

Perfect location, everything is on the doorstep. Great host, very friendly and helpful. Allowed us to leave our things there on check in and check out days. The room was very clean and had everything you could ever need. Given how close it was to all the nightlife you really couldn’t hear much which was great. Couldn’t fault it in anyway, if I were to go back to Amsterdam I’d 100% stay there

The Velvet Amsterdam is wonderful from the comfortable beds, canal view room, excellent choice of teas and coffees to make in the room, a large closet, extra charging cords, and an excellent location to all like the train station and trams, to restaurants and sights such as Dam Square. Recommend you check out his accommodation options. We would stay here again.

Good location. 17 steep narrow steps to get to your room and carry your suitcase, no lift. Not suitable if you have mobility issues. Owner lives upstairs, can hear footsteps every time and early morning. B&B as advertised, however no breakfast offered. Queried the owner, explanation is he cannot advertise accommodation under Hotel, instead advertised as B&B which can be misleading. Owner is friendly, overly priced. Not suitable for elderly people and with huge and heavy suitcases.

Our second time at this absolutely wonderful place...we've gotten the canal-view room both times (lucky us) and David does everything to make your stay so comfortable. As everyone says, location- that short walk from the train station and the fact that you can walk to all the main attractions, just perfect, the room itself - AC, comfortable bed, windows you can open, great room darkening curtains, a killer shower with plenty of hot water, everything provided - and then some - plus so nicely decorated, again just perfect. And David is a wonderful, thoughtful host. So from our perspective, all Pros and no Cons...2 mentions that didn't bother us but might be considered by some - it is one flight up and stairs might not be your thing and the current restaurant on the ground floor is a tad noisier (outdoor tables). If/when we come back to this lovely city, this would always be our choice.

The only thing that beats the location is the quality of our stay. It’s walking distance from just about everything. David was very nice. The room was spotless and had everything we needed. He even left extra electrical outlet adapters in the closet. Without question, we would stay here again.

Great host. Central location. Beautiful room.
