Hotel Nes Amsterdam

Check in was late because the room was not ready. We were exhausted from traveling and slept in the lobby. I was online with another hotel when the owner (didn’t know it was the owner at the time and he never introduced himself that first day or subsequent days) finally told us there was an issue with the room and it would take another 30 minutes! He offered us a drink and snacks for compensation but didn’t inform his staff so we were charged. I said forget it. I will put it in the review The staff was wonderful! The owner not so much. He is in the hospitality business but has no hospitality or people skills. I would NOT stay here again

Phenomenal location very close to tram drop off in middle of canals, restaurants, shops. Great view of canal. Small room, as expected for price in Europe in prime location but has everything you need. Very good breakfast. Uber/Lyft will drop or pick up right in front (this is not true of all streets). Has an elevator. Very friendly and helpful staff. Safe for a solo female traveler or kids. Range of visitors from families to older couples to single professional age travelers. Had some city noise that comes with any city hotel. No restaurant on premise if you need a late night meal but lots of options all around. Good toiletries like both shampoo and conditioner but did not have body lotion. No fridge in room but they can store small things for you (like cheese). They will send an automated WhatsApp message you when you reserve, which is very nice as a back up to this app.

The hotel was small, but very clean. The bathroom was lovely, it has an hairdryer, and shampoo and liquid body soap, next to the sink was liquid hand soap. We had a double room which was very very small probably no bigger than a 10ft x 10ft room. It just fit a double bed it had the smallest wardrobe ever, only 3 hangers, the TV didn’t work and a tiny desk, which women would use as a dressing table. There is no mirror, there is a mirror at the back of the door, but there’s no light in that area, there is also a mirror in the bathroom which is quite high, and when you have a shower that mirror steams up so there’s no way you can put your make-up on. it needs a mirror above the desk/dressing table. There is a shelf above the sinks x 2 . The bed was comfortable and the location of the property was brilliant. It was in the middle of everywhere. it can get noisy at night but not that bad that it bothered us. It might be different during the summer months.. We heard people shouting at 3:30 in the morning on one night only, we stayed for four nights. All the Reception staff were outstanding so helpful the breakfast was okay. It was a continental style of breakfast. There was boiled eggs and scrambled egg. The breakfast lady needs to smile a little , when she asked for our room Number every morning instead of saying “good morning, what’s your room number, please?” It was “room number “ very blunt and to the point, but the rest of the staff were very very friendly.

Everything

Breakfast was delicious and the staff were exceptional.

Lovely little hotel centrally located

Excelente

loved the staff, super helpful and friendly, happy to be there early mornings or late at night super impressed. 5 stars for staff. Hotel is in a great location, no luxury but clean and functional and as modern as you can be in an old building in downtown Amsterdam.

Great hotel in excellent location. Staff were great, room was comfortable

Denise and Rick and the whole staff were wonderful! They were very informative and helpful especially for us 1st timers to Amsterdam! The hotel is located in a great area able to walk to all the sights! And the price was reasonable! Can’t wait to come back!

Happy with our choice

Breakfast was excellent..staff were great..fantastic location..room was a little small

Perfekt läge och väldigt trevlig personal. Inget lyx, men en familjär känsla. Om man söker ett genuint hotell med Amsterdamkänsla så boka Nes!

Posizione perfetta, staff grandioso e per essere ad Amsterdam struttura pulita

Ok

Personnel agréable et serviable.

Everything was amazing! Thank you, staff, for all the suggestions about things to do. Our room was big, spacious and charming.

location of the hotel

perfect size room for a single traveler, the stairs were a bit steep but thank goodness for the elevator, and what a great location!!!!

The staff was all lovely, the room was clean, housekeeping came daily, great location.. the only negative I can say is the room was small but that never made a difference to our break
