My friend and I were looking for an inexpensive place to stay in Amsterdam, preferring to spend our money out and about than on a fancy hotel. For this, Hotel Kap rated pretty well. It's on a relatively quiet street that isn't a terribly distant walk from the centre, and was indeed inexpensive. I would note that other travellers should... More

As readers of my other reviews of Amsterdam hotels will already know, I tend to keep my expectations low - and still have them dashed. Unless you're paying big bucks, you'll be faced with poorly-maintained, insecure, often bed-bug infested dives you reach by something closer to a fire ladder than a staircase. What a pleasant change to find a clean,... More

The good: quiet street, close to tram stop The acceptable: narrow, steep stairs. We expected this. Kap seems to be proud of their dangerous stairs. The bad: WiFi never worked (we stayed 4 nights) - a cardinal sin, as the availability of WiFi was one major reason I picked Kap (I have to be able to connect to work, in... More

The hotel Kap is on a one way street, quiet and not very busy. Tram and bus stops within 1 block and the Carousel restaurant in the park down from the hotel. Rooms were clean and fresh , the staff were also very friendly and helpful except for one and he knows who he is I am sure his aloof... More

Well located. You can go walking almost everywhere. Very good breakfast. Excellent internet (paid but reasonable price and always working) and comfortable rooms. The day we left, we needed to have breakfast very early in the morning, so they prepared a breakfast-box to take the previous night to our room and have breakfast early the following morning. Highly reccomended. More

Our family of four spent 7 nights at the Kap Hotel in July. It was a great base for visiting Amsterdam. The breakfasts consisting of fresh rolls, home made muffins, cold cuts, cheeses, cereal were ample and kept us well fueled for sight seeing. Our family room with bathroom was very comfortable. The very steep stairs ( not unusual for... More

No-frills but conveniently located for museums and restaurants. Nice down-to-earth staff, one lady especially kind, Good breakfast. Phone at reception available for outgoing calls, even overseas, but not from room. Shared toilet is right outside your door, but makes for noisy nights due to inconsiderate guests slamming doors. If you need to stay for a week or more, spend the... More

I stayed at Hotel Kap in March 2011. Room: I stayed in a single room which was quite sparten and basic, but clean. It included a single bed, a wash basin and a shower but without a separate toilet. A communal toilet was located along the corridor not far from my room. Admittedly it was a bit depressing returning to... More

all premises were worn out, like time has stopped there long time ago. breakfast was average (somewhere I read they offer nice rich dutch breakfast, but then half of the world is offers that "nice dutch breakfast) Room was clean but oldish. I stayed on top floor and climbing up was quite experience. I have not seen so steep steps,... More
