Hotel Torenzicht

I’m giving it three stars because it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea. It’s certainly unique, and you’re right in the heart of Amsterdam, close to everything and literally in the middle of the Red Light District — yes, with a view of the ladies. The atmosphere is unlike anywhere else. There’s a bar downstairs that feels like something from the Peaky Blinders era, where smoking ban rules don’t seem to apply, so it’s quite an experience to rate. If you want luxury, this is not the place — the rooms are very basic, and not everything is in perfect condition. But if you’re looking for something different and want to see and feel Amsterdam’s atmosphere right from your window and doorstep, and you’re not too bothered about where you lay your head at night, then it’s perfect. And honestly, next time I’m in Amsterdam, I think I’ll return for the nostalgia and the beauty of its simplicity.

best value for your money, not looking for a 5 star hotel, just a clean safe place to get some sleep and freshen up. They have a nice breakfast included in the morning and the bar is open 24/7. Location is right in the middle of all the action. Have been here before and will come again

Yes the room was clean, the staff were very helpful, but the big attraction was the very central location.

Personnel au top. Chambre spartiate mais propre, équipements ok.

Common bathroom and common restroom Very narrow room etc…

This place is run down, shoddy, loud and dangerous. What a terrible stay. You’ll be lured to book it because its rates are lower but you will regret that as I now do. The stairs are so steep that you could literally fall to your death trying to struggle a heavy suitcase up there. The step treads are barely 6 inches. No doorman to help. The rooms are tiny and broken down. Like the tiny single table in my room that was falling out of the wall.

If you want to be knee deep in the filth and the debauchery, look no further! Clean, pleasant and no frills board and breakfast! Enjoyed my stay very much!

Excellent value for m

We had an amazing experience as a tourist very convenient and staff is very friendly

Fijne locatie,

Great location if you don't mind the crowds. Friendly staff. Secure. Nothing fancy.

Een unieke ervaring wegens het compactheid van de kamers en elders is het een uitstekende plaats voor een weekend alles is binnen 15 min wandel afstand zeker voor terug te komen

On the plus side, the reception/bar staff were friendly. Also a fan was provided in the room. On the minus side, the room was small, had a shared bathroom and toilet and the promised toiletries amounted to one small bottle of body wash - for my entire three nights. The decor was dated and the shelf inside the wardrobe was stained. The television was minuscule and placed at the head of the bed, making it impossible to view when in bed. The main problem is the constant noise. I knew the “hotel” was in the Red Light District, so was expecting noise outside, and in fairness the windows blocked out most of it. It was the noise inside the hotel that ensured I did not have one good night’s sleep. The rooms are so crammed together that anyone entering a room is going to disturb neighbouring occupants as there is no way of closing the doors quietly. As a result I was woken throughout the night and every morning at around 07:30 by multiple banging doors. On my final day the cleaning staff appeared to have started at around 08:00 adding to the noise preventing anyone from sleeping in. The “hotel” is more suited to be a hostel for backpackers. I would not recommend this place to anyone wanting a decent night’s sleep.

El ingreso a la habitación es super empinado, super indomodo subir las escaleras. La ubicación si esta super buena, en el centro del barrio rojo y centro

It's in the red light

Todo bien, el único tema , nos tocó 3ra piso

The staff were very kind and accommodating.

Cool spot right in De Wallen! Great for back packers and adventurers!

Extremely pathetic staff.

I was very, very upset and disappointed in this hotel. It was not an accurate description. It is a hostel, and it's a one star at a Max and definitely not worth it. And it lies it says, there's air conditioning, there's no air conditioning. You open a window, and that's it. The bathrooms and the shower are down. The hall and they're nasty. So needless to say, I wasted a lot of money on a p o.S hotel
