Never has my review of a property been defined almost entirely by 1 person working at the property. But this review is different. This review is about Camilla… the one-of-a-kind owner and host of this stunning boutique hotel. Camilla’s reputation precedes her. If you don’t believe me, just read a dozen reviews for this property and count how many times guests rave about her. She’s a gem. A true gem and undeniably the best host of anyone I’ve ever come across in my 25 years of traveling the world. The room we booked was huge and luxurious. The attention to detail was impeccable. The bathroom was enormous and cozy. She helped my father and I book a boat tour that she highly recommended and we thoroughly enjoyed. This morning, she prepared a breakfast fit for a king, or a pair of kings in our situation lol There were countless options and although I didn’t have a large enough stomach to try them all, I tried as many as I could and each one was a perfect 10/10. Camilla, YOU are the reason for this review. YOU are the reason soooo many people rave about your gorgeous boutique hotel. And YOU are the reason so many of us will return one day. Thank you for making us feel like family, we adore you.

A beautiful, historic house with unparalleled and beautiful decor... So amazing and wonderful! The hostess (Camilla) was gracious and friendly, and the breakfasts were truly fantastic. We can't wait to visit again!

Beautiful large space with lovely garden and an amazing, interesting host who goes well beyond to offer hospitality.

I recently stayed at The Breitner House, a small establishment known for its exceptional service from the owner. After booking, Camilla, the owner, promptly emailed me to ensure a smooth arrival. This charming house is located in the art and literature district and has a rich history, once being the workplace of two famous Dutch painters in the 19th century. The room was spacious and classically decorated, with a very comfortable bed and a clean, well-maintained bathroom. The highlight of the stay was Camilla's outstanding service, especially her breakfasts. Each morning, she prepared a fresh, surprise menu that was both exceptional in quality and taste. It's worth noting that you shouldn't leave early for a tour without enjoying her breakfast, as good food takes time to cook. Our room was thoroughly cleaned every day, and when time allowed, Camilla shared detailed stories about the house's history. This house is highly recommended, though it may not be suitable for seniors due to the numerous steps and steep stairs.

Amazing, one of a kind property.

We had a most enjoyable stay at Breitner House! It was the highlight of this trip to Amsterdam (which is saying quite a lot). Camilla is a charming hostess! She proudly told us the history of the house, and served a sumptuous, delicious, and beautifully appointed full breakfast. (She thoughtfully accommodated our dietary restrictions.) The suite was “as pictured” with art-filled walls, beautiful fabrics, and interesting accoutrements. Centrally located for connecting to public transportation, the bedroom was quiet with a comfortable bed. The Breitner House deserves it very high rating. We would definitely stay there again!

Camilla was an amazing host! She made us feel right at home and truly works to perfect every detail of the guest experience. Her artistic touch is evident throughout the entire stay. The Isaac Israëls room is breathtaking and had everything we needed. To top it off, Camilla prepares the most delicious, beautiful, and thoughtful breakfasts! Thank you so much, Camilla!

Camilla was a Fantastic host and her bed and breakfast was Magical! The perfect place to stay when you are experiencing the delights of Amsterdam!

Great property. Amazing rooms and breakfast. Unique experience.

Lovely quiet area and the owner Camilla is a gracious charming hostess. She delights in preparing the most lavish and delicious breakfasts we’ve ever had. All around a delightful experience.

A wonderful romantic stay in a beautiful house. Our host was incredible and made our stay so special - would recommend this to anyone looking for something really memorable.

Staying in the Breitner House is not anything like a normal hotel where you simply get an accommodation. Instead, it is a full experience where you can soak in the history and culture of Amsterdam up close. The spacious suites are gorgeously and artistically decorated, and the property itself sits in a wonderful neighborhood. But perhaps the best part of staying here is the opportunity to sit and chat with the proprietress as she welcomes you with tea and Dutch pie upon arrival and then provides you with an absolutely sumptuous breakfast the next morning. Travel isn't just about seeing the sights, it's also about meeting people. And for those who might be hesitant because the price is a bit above that of a standard hotel, I can only say that for what you actually get for the money, this place is an absolute bargain (the price per square meter of living space is much less than a standard hotel and obviously the Breitner House offers more than just a bigger room...). This was easily the most memorable hotel experience of my life. Highly recommend!

Good

It was an excellent stay! The service was outstanding, and very personal. The building, decor, and views were memorable. It all combined to make our stay in Amsterdam unforgettable. The breakfasts were delicious and customized. The owner of Breitner House goes out of her way to make guests feel welcome and very well taken care of. She is an ambassador for Amsterdam.

Beautiful property. Camilla was fantastic!!

Camilla estuvo atenta todo el tiempo, el servicio es 6 estrellas, el desayuno impresionante, la casa un palacio y excelente ubicación. Muy recomendable !

an 1870 house with only 2 amazing suites large comfortable and impeccable service. it can not get better than that.a unique experience. Camilla the host and owner was perfect. witty , polite , always with a good word , an amazing personality . breakfast as we never have had and we have traveled a lot ! The suites intrigue you with the history they are carrying.

Camilla is amazing. Breitner House is amazing. We've literally NEVER stayed somewhere we loved more. The soul of the house is warm and artistic. The breakfast was somewhere between a dream and a Dutch still life painting. If you're thinking of booking, book now, and add extra days. We never wanted to leave!

5/5/2020 My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and cannot overstate what an unbelievably wonderful experience we had. From the moment we met Camilla we knew we were in for a stay unlike any other and she did not disappoint. Camilla was so warm, friendly and entirely selfless throughout our stay, always armed with directions, a thoughtful recommendation or simply a kind word. Accommodations left us speechless in both their originality and cleanliness. When we eventually plan our return to Amsterdam, if we cannot stay at The Breitner House we may reconsider/reschedule the trip, it was that fantastic. If we somehow go anyway, you can bet we will at least stop by to say, "Hello!" and "How we've missed you!". A beyond Five Star location.

The Breitner suite was very spacious and homey. The included breakfasts were very beautifully presented and the quality and quantity of food far exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed visiting with the owner every day as she is very friendly and helpful. The house was close to a tram station which made getting around very easy.
