We had the Dream Room which I believe is the smallest of the rooms at Amstel Corner. It was small but it was cozy. Comfortable bed, efficient kitchen and the bathroom shower was luxurious. We will definitely stay there again!

Wonderful stay at Amstel Corner!!
We had a great stay at Amstel Corner! The owner was very friendly and flexible when our train was going to arrive later due to a delay. He even gave us a map and pointed out places to see before we leave. The location is perfect, a short walk from transit, as well as to many sights in the city. Our room was clean, and the space was perfect for two people. I would recommend Amstel Corner to anyone looking for a more authentic stay in Amsterdam to explore the city!

My husband & I just stayed in the Play Room for 4 nights. The room is small, but cosy and clean. It was great to have a kitchenette. The bathroom is small, but beautiful. The hotel is quiet, there are only 4 or 5 rooms. It’s close to everything, including supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, pubs, trams and the metro. The only downside to this hotel is the stairs! They are steep and narrow. We were on the top floor so we had 3 flights of stairs to climb. However, unless you have physical limitations, it’s really not a dealbreaker. It was good exercise! We enjoyed our stay. The room was clean, comfortable and cosy. We would definitely stay here again.

No lift and stairs that are as steep as ladders.
Our biggest concern was that this hotel did not have a lift in it and our room was on the 3rd floor. There was no way we were going to carry our luggage up to our room so we had to leave our luggage down stairs and only bring up each time only what we needed which made it an inconvenience. The stairways were straight up very steep they reminded me of a ladder more than stairs. I felt the outside of the hotel along with the other hotels on the street could have been cleaner. This was a typical old style dutch hotel with no lift.

Fabulous Hotel & Stay
We stumbled upon Amstel Corner Hotel and fell in love with the photos that we saw online. We promptly booked our one night stay for our last night in Amsterdam and were very pleased with our decision to do so. The hotel is located near some great squares such as Rembrandt and Leidseplein square, which was great for our needs! Upon arrival at the hotel, we found that it was actually a house that had been turned into a hotel with several suites for rent. The owner of the Hotel, Fokko, was very much accommodating and gave us information about the area and a lovely map for navigating to restaurants, shops, and local bars. Fokko also lives at the hotel in his own private suite and is available anytime if needed. We had the Duke's Suite which was very spacious and the description matched perfectly. Our suite contained a King sized bed with a fully equipped kitchen and large bathroom. There was a couple flights of stairs to climb to get to our room, which we were ok with. Fokko has also written a lovely book about his home and its history that we enjoyed reading during out stay. We very much enjoyed our time here and would recommend Amstel Corner to anyone looking for a peaceful, luxurious hotel that still offers a fabulous location. The bed was also amazing and the best sleep that we have had during our trip! We look forward to visiting Amstel Corner again on our next trip to Amsterdam.

Lovely apartment,balcony view of the Amstel/canal
Our third stay in Amsterdam was all the better because of our stay at Amstel Corner. It was our first time staying in an apartment and the location was just close enough to the city's main attractions and far enough for a quiet sleep. The Honeymoon Suite with its beautiful decor, great balcony overlooking the Amstel River and canal and all the right things to prepare a continental breakfast were just perfect! The best part of our stay was Fokko. He was always available for questions and very helpful. If you're looking for a beautiful apartment away from the hustle and bustle, but within walking distance to the museums and city center with a personal touch from the owner, then look no further.

Very comfy room, away from the crowds
We booked the honeymoon suite, and it was wonderful! Huge soaking tub, rain shower, heavenly soft bed. Small balcony with seating for two, overlooking one of the canals. It is a bit of a walk to the nearest tram stop. If you want to be away from the touristy areas, as we did, then this is an excellent choice. It is more of a B&B than a hotel, as it has only 4 rooms! Our host emailed us shortly after our booking, with his contact information and a request to keep in touch for check-in. You can not just show up, as this is not a full-service hotel. Our host let us know this up front, and we were warmly welcomed and offered a nice bottle of champagne. It was a fantastic 3 day weekend in Amsterdam, and I highly recommend this hotel if you want peace and quiet. If you want to be where the action is, you may want to choose another hotel closer to the desired neighborhood. This one was kind of in between, which allowed us to go one direction to the Red Light district (once was enough!) or another to get to the shops and restaurants we were looking for.

We very much appreciated our studio (Play Room) at Amstel Corner. -we requested and got 2 single beds (even though its easily reconfigured into 1 bed) -excellent location, with grocery store very close, in a safe area, and easy walk to centraal, red light, attractions -complete kitchen (fridge, microwave, stove, Nespresso+cups, cookware/dishes, etc) -studio was clean, high-tech(internet worked very well), felt safe(cameras in the hallways, proper lighting) -quiet and cozy and classy, very well designed and furnished. This particular studio doesn't have a balcony but that worked fine with us. -it`s true that the stairs are very steep, but take your time, there are two ramps, don't rush it and you'll do just fine, and well if you do trip, it's thick, nice, fluffy carpet, you may survive. -soundproofing was good! we could barely hear people in the corridor or next door, anyway there is only 2 rooms on this floor. -the staff also very positively contributed to our stay and was always so very kind and eager to help or suggest great things to see or do and they were not invasive at all.

Fabolous hotel
We stayed for 5 nights at Amstel Corner.The hotel overlooks Amstel canal. This hotel is amazing with various rooms. We had the Play Room and it was such a nice stay with everything you could possible need for a short break. It has a little kitchen area and Fokko provides a little coffee machine for you. There is an apple tv so if you have Netflix then you are definitely sorted! The bathroom is nice and a decent size. Finally Fokko the owner is absolutely lovely, he met us on arrival and made sure we were satisfied with everything and answered some questions about the area which really did help. We had a fantastic time and we are definitely going to be returning!!
