This was one of the worst check in experiences I have ever had. The check in associate was an intern and being trained. He inadvertently gave us false information. This can be expected from a trainee from time to time. However, the hotel staff, especially the front desk manager will not own up to the mistake that was made and is instead calling us liars.

Fell short on expectations
We considered many hotel options in Amsterdam and landed on Banks Mansion due to location, ratings and provided amenities (included afternoon snacks, drinks, breakfast, etc). Location of hotel was great, providing easy walking to many attractions, bars and restaurants. Beds were comfortable, room was very spacious, toiletries had a lovely scent and staff were friendly. For us the mark was missed on cleanliness and general condition of the property. Carpet in our room had stains, there was something spilled down the inside of the bedroom door, bathroom grout was visibly dirty and the bathroom door handle plate had fingerprints/visible "stuff" on it. We went to breakfast our first morning, where our shoes stuck to the floor, which just didn't land well in an environment you're going to eat at. Additionally the living room area is quite small, and seats are limited during the afternoon/evening, so arrive early if you want to hang. Again, we really wanted to love everything about it, but just didn't meet expectations and would not stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Banks Mansion. The staff were welcoming and friendly and the hotel was clean, comfortable and relaxed. The hotel is central and within easy walking distance of many of main attractions including the Rijksmuseum and Ann Franks House. We particularly liked the free snacks and drinks served everyday in the lobby and the breakfast is excellent. Special mention has to go to Sandra who takes great pleasure in cooking you eggs, from scratch, in whatever fashion you prefer. All done with a smile. All the staff really do out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as possible.

This property offers a great location, friendly staff, and a unique open bar concept. The rooms are clean and comfortable, though a bit small. While it may be slightly overpriced, the overall experience is enjoyable. The staff is particularly helpful, with Sandra providing excellent breakfasts to start your day and Samir offering valuable local insights and booking assistance. The open bar and evening snacks create a social atmosphere, allowing guests to connect and share experiences.

Not worth the splurge
I stayed here because of all of the great reviews. It was a splurge for me on my last night in Amsterdam, and honestly, I was so disappointed. During check-in, I felt like I was imposing on the staff’s time. I didn’t get told about the cheese/wine service in the family room which should be a highlight. My room was small, had very well used furniture and some nasty, large stains on the curtains. When I returned from dinner, I spoke with another staff member who promptly offered me a new room, which was lovely and included large windows that opened onto the canal. It is a great location and has sound-proof windows, but in my opinion, it is not worth the premium price of a luxury hotel.

Love the made to order breakfast by Sandra and the all inclusive bar was very nice. The hotel is close to most tourist attractions or a short Uber ride. Thank you to Samir, Demetrius and Shafani at the front desk. They were very helpful with recommendations and helped us navigate the city.

Very accomodating staff. Convenient location. Wonderful breakfast. Beautiful Frank Lloyd Wright inspired furnishings. My sister and I had a room with twin beds and my only criticism is that the box springs were too small for the mattresses causing an unsafe situation of the mattresses overhanging.
