The best thing, or amenity about Hotel Nes is its location; it’s perfectly situated in Amsterdam. It’s within walking distance to everything from museums you don’t want to miss, Anne Frank’s House, Rembrandt’s home, the Jewish History, Van Gogh, MOCA, and Rijks museums. I don’t know about other rooms, but the single rooms are as small as I imagine a jail cell would be. There’s no room to put your clothes away if you don’t like living out of your suitcase. There’s a small three shelf attached to the very narrow desk that has a textured surface that makes it difficult to write post cards on or to add travel journal entries. The small chair and the bed are all you can sit in. The bathroom is also tiny, but very well designed. I stayed on the fourth floor and used the elevator rather than navigate the tiny spiral-like staircase (typical for any residence in Amsterdam because they’re very narrow in width).
Breakfast was fine; a wonderful coffee maker allows guests a big menu of coffee drinks, as well as a standard cup.
I stayed at the hotel for 7 days and my room was not cleaned until I complained on day three. There are decent restaurants nearby, but across the canal has two very good options located within pricey hotels.
The Flower Market is a five minute walk away, so don’t miss it!
