Hotel hortus .... A big big thumbs up! Would certainly return to stay here ! Fantastic location, excellent service and lovely choice of breakfast. The Americans who run the hotel are cool and friendly and make you feel ever so welcome! Big love to you Brent ;) More

My husband and I stayed here on the last night of our month long trip all over Europe. The staff was friendly and helpful, the facilities were clean, and the bed was comfortable. I would actually give this a "5" rating, but that would be misleading to other reviewers. It was better than what we expected and we were pleasantly... More

i would like to recommend all of you this hotel. The room was clean, staff were friendly and the location was very good. The rooms werent so modern, they are simple but there were all important things. How Jim Carey said: ,,it´s goooood":-)P.S. Breakfast are so tasty More

The Hotel is okay for budget and short stay. I only stayed for 1 night and skip breakfast since I have to leave early. The room is not very clean but the shared bathroom is clean. They gave me the room on first floor as requested since I am with big luggage and quick response on my email. They have... More

We stayed here as a large group, taking over 4 rooms, so ideal for a large group willing to share. The beds were surprisingly comfortable and the rooms warm. The stairs are alarmingly steep but saying that after a couple of days, you get used to them, even like us upto the third floor! The staff were pleasant and helpful,... More

Ok the stairs are narrow and neverending, but it's Amsterdam. The toilet door smashed a hundred times a night, but it's a cheap hotel. Gipsum wall divideng space into super tiny rooms, but's the guests are happy to stay not in the suburb. BUT a nonstop party taking place at night at each floor is too much for those not... More

That being said, this place is a bargain. It used to be a hostel, so expect to share a room if you don't make reservations. If you're an American, this place is probably not for you. The staff is friendly and a walk from whatever you want to see in the center of Amsterdam. You can walk to the Centraal... More

I'd like to apologise in advance for the possibly excessive use of upper-case letters. My sister and I stayed here for 3 nights. It was SO AWFUL and uncomfortable, there was nothing we could do but cry with hysterical laughter. It was like we were in a situation comedy. First of all, the infamous stairs - they're ridiculous and treacherous.... More

myself and a male friend stayed here a couple of nights ago for just one night. I had requested a twin room however we were given a double. seeing as it was for one night we could cope with this. we paid for the room then climbed the neverending stairs to the room at the top. There was barely enough... More
