Our room was lovely. When I come back, I hope to stay in room 118 again. Nice size. We were surprised to have a large balcony. Great staff. Safe location. You can see the fireworks from the balcony. The bartenders Sarah and Roger made me and my daughter feel like family and /or very special guests. Grocery market across the street. At a bus location.

Wonderful hotel which would be amazing with a couple of minor tweaks. It was a superb location which a large room with a very comfortable bed. We really enjoyed having a drink in the bar. The shower was fantastic but the quality of towel did not match everything else in the hotel. It was a 5 star hotel with a 1/2 star towel - tiny and thin. The other thing I would have liked more control over was the temperature in the room. I found it too cold and I don't get cold easily. The air con seemed set at 23 however it was not this temperature as our heating is less than this at home. Overall however, a fantastic hotel!

I stayed in a corner room with a balcony and beautiful views of the canal. Room has a Bluetooth speaker that was fun using throughout my stay. The issue I had with the room was it's distasteful smell. I suspect some serious partying went on in the room. I couldn't easily change my room, beacuse the hotel was booked. Someone came up and sprayed the room. It did help but started to wear off at some point. I think the hotel needs to start renovating it's room. It's got a funky look, but kinda of outdated. Overall, i really enjoyed my stay, which is why I didn't change my room the next day. Fun location, helpful staff, large room and perfect views of the canals. I recommend eating in the hotel restaurant. It was very good.

We booked to stay at this hotel as we have stayed in leidesplein many times and always wanted to stay here. The room was not ready ok our arrival we were then told to come back at 3pm, i saw gran turismo was in town and occupied many of the rooms and they clearly had money and were uperclass. The drivers and camera crew were staying there that weekend. I noticed i had a missed call and voicemail. I checked it and it was from the hotel manager "call me when you get this".a cryptic message. We raced back to the hotel only to be told they are all of a sudden overbooked after taking our luggage all day, and that they have booked us in the marriot up the road. This was extremely disappointing since we have for many years wanted to stay here and because we clearly paid less for the room and booked in advance and more important clientele were in town, we were subsequently moved by the hotel. They threw in breakfast but thats not the point we wanted to stay at the clayton, had looked forward to the clayton but unfortunately they did not look forward to having us and decided to move us. In 2024 no computer system no matter how primitive would not be aware of double bookings. Although the hotel is beautiful and staff are nice we had a poor experience and would never book this hotel again.
