Anonymous Good small hotel in convenient location
8.8
+ All staff very friendly and always willing to help. Single room was quite small but very clean. Pleasant breakfast area with decent food selection.
- Some guests were very noisy till 3am but that can happen anywhere and was not the hotel's fault. Luggage can be left at reception but it is not stored properly and is just left in the foyer which is not very secure.
Anonymous The owner is very nice; Arnold is as well, and I'd stay there again.
8.0
+ Friendliness. Helpful. real close to humdrum but not humdrum itself. nice restful contrast to the nearby Leidsplein, etc. right on the park, too. Lobby and eating area are very clean.
- Must be ultra-quiet inside the hotel. My room was somewhat dusty when I arrived. Not a real big deal, but the desk-fan blades were quite dirty, so I took it apart and cleaned it.
Anonymous Nice hotel

9.6
+ Very!! frindly, helpfull and loveable staff. Nice familiy atmosphere. Clean. God location, quit but still in walking distance to city center, to a big park and grosery shopping etc. God breakfast. We would stay there again!! Room nr 15 is big and has a large balkon towards the garden side. We stayed there with a baby and the let us use the kitchen for babyfood etc at all times of the day, let us take the babypram up in the room etc., only asking if they could help more.
- Small lift and narrow stairs -but thats the way it is in Amsterdam, and part of the charm :-) The bathtub is a bit used, but you can just use the shower, with was good.(In general we think the price vs. quality is high in Amsterdam) No minus points from us.

Daniel Goulder Fantastic stay at Hotel Hestia !!!!!!!!!!!
9.8
+ I have now been to amsterdam three times and this was by far the best hotel i have stayed in. its not that the others were bad, it is because this just has a realy nice feel about the place. The location is perfect if you want to be leidseplein side of town, which is by far the best side to be (plenty going on).i stayed in a triple room with 2 friends, the room was perfect, plenty of space, clean bathroom and plenty of room for clothes etc. the staff were excellent, willing to immidiately sort anything out, like get you a plate, help with directions etc. i would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. Thankyou to the staff at hotel hestia !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- no minus points

7.2
+ nice quality hotel, even had a lift so you dont have to walk up and down loads of steep stairs. very easy to get trams to red light area and station.
- not really the part of amsterdam i normally do stuff in, but was perfect for this night as i was going to an event over the road,
Mario Cabezas Location and breakfast are good but expensive, no free internet.
8.6
+ Close to points of interest in a quiet street. Good breakfast.
- Internet wireless is not free. At this time and age internet connection should not be charged anymore. What will be charged next, toilet paper? An average of 90 Euros per night is too high: 75 would be the ideal price.

+ Lage, direkt neben dem Stadtzentrum, aber sehr ruhig und sauber. Öffentliche Verkehrsmittel nur 3 min. zu Fuß. Schöner Park in direkter Näher. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten - 5 min. zu Fuß. Schönes Gebäude von Außen.
- Die Einrichtung in Zimmern schon lange nicht mehr frisch. Möbel teilweise kaputt. Bad sehr sparsam eingerichtet.. Badetücher ziemlich alt und abgenutzt. Zimmer nicht besonders gemütlich.

+ Very good location. Friendly and obliging staff. Good breakfast included in price.
- Smaller rooms are very small i.e. room 35. Bathroom extractor not working. Very small lift. Very steep and twisting staircase.
Anonymous Overall would recommend this hotel
8.4
+ Friendly helpful staff. I found location perfect, quiet at night but just 2 minutes walk from lively Leidseplein. Trams easily accessed and just a few stops from Central Station. Room cleaned daily. Breakfast typical, cereal, hams, cheese, boiled eggs, breads tomatoes/cucumber and fruit salad.
- Single room was small and basic for price but included breadfast and felt safe. Bed was comfortable but quite soft. If you are a big guy then will find it a bit of a squeeze to fit into this single bed.
Michael Overall nice hotel
7.8
+ close, convient to tram, rijksmuseum, nice cosey hotel. Hotels mascot is a cat!! Nice little garden in the back. Staff very helpful, answered all questions!!
- It was a little loud...I picked this hotel since it was a little futher out from the centrum...but still noisey. Get a room in the back away from the street and on a higher floor so you don't hear people climbing up the stairs all night.
Anonymous Excellent location in the heart of Amsterdam! Excellent Service!!!

+ Very helpful owner and staff -- helping us with lift and storing the luggage, serving us early breakfast, suggesting nearby Indonesian restaurant. Location very near Vondelparken was a delight.
- Not luxurious by any means -- cramped lift; our double room was small but adequate, but the single room had hardly space to turn around, nowhere for luggage.

+ The room was a nice size as we had chosen one of the larger unit. It had access to a small private deck which a pleasant extra. The area is quiet but very close to main activities and transportation.
- Rooms are very plain and the stairs are a challenge. The elevator is meant for one person with a couple of bags only.

8.6
+ Very quiet and clean area. Close to trams and busses, and good connections with public transportation. Friendly, willing staff, partly very competent. Proud tomcat Gregory and colourful wild birds in a tiny green, lush courtyard.
- Wrong infos given concerning public transportation. We just about missed the plane, even thogh we started 90min earlier than recommended. Price of the room: I thought it was quite expensive, but I have no comparison with prices of other hotels in Amsterdam.
Kathleen Great location, great little old Dutch Hotel
