+ I've stayed in many different hotels in Amsterdam over the years. Piet Hein is good value for the money. Nothing fancy. Decent hygiene. Friendly staff. OK breakfast. Good location.

Anonymous Goed, schoon hotel

+ Het bed en de douche waren heerlijk, het hotel ligt op steenworp afstand van het centrum en alles is makkelijk aan te lopen. Ook was het een schoon hotel en er werd niet moeilijk gedaan over roken. Ook kregen we een paraplu van het hotel omdat het buiten aan het regenen was.

- Het enige minpuntje was dat er 's ochtends een meneer, neem aan van de roomservice, kwam binnenlopen zonder te kloppen. Dat was een beetje vreemd..

+ My girlfriend and I have avery enjoyable stay at the Piet Hein Hotel in Amsterdamn during the last weekend in Janauary this year. Initally we were choose the hotel due to its excellent location but we were also extremely impressed with the service, breakfast and comfort as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. i think its an excellent choice for couples or a group of friends looking for a great and affordable hotel during a weekend stay in the city.

- It would be harsh to be too critical however the only two points I could make are: the bathroom was surprisingly quite cold and instead of a doubel bed that we requested we got two singles put together (but that happens at most hotels so no real grounds to complain about that). Over all a great stay in a great hotel.

+ It is a comfortable hotel in a very good location. Easy to get around with public transport and walking distance to the art museums. Staff is very helpful and friendly, it is clean, nicely decorated and breakfast is good and plenty. I would come back.

- It is small but to be expected in an original Amsterdam house. (space is used efficiently tho). The only real minus point for me was the mattress; it was awfully soft.

+ Before arriving correspondance regarding getting to the hotel was prompt and helpful. The location was perfect, close enough to the city to be able to walk everywhere but also on the adge of a peaceful park. The service was of a very high standard and the abitity to leave luggage greatly useful. The room was clean and the bed very comportable. Medical advise from the night staff was also most appreciated.

- Breakfast was expensive with an additional suppliment for room service.

Romain Simple but nice.

+ Professional and friendly staff, clean scandinavian style rooms, good location next to a beautiful park and central location to everything.

Tzveta Ivanova Good hotel for weekend break

1 June 2010

8.6

+ The hotel has a good location within the museum and shopping district of Amsterdam. The staff was very helpfull and accommodating ~ the reception girl lent her own umbrella to me as they have run out of hotel ones.

- The room was a little on the small side, we could fit our 2 suitcases and be able to walk around+ no room for toateleries make up in the bathroom.

Ellen Konig Excellent hotel in great location

4 January 2010

9.2

+ Fantastic location right in the Vondelpark and only steps from museums and shops. The hotel's interior is very stylish and cozy, with comfortable and beautiful rooms. The hotel bar is a lovely place to relax and meet with friends. Service is very helpful and friendly. Guests have free access to the internet and the hotel has printing facilities. Staff helps with booking museum tickets to avoid the queues.

- Can't really think of much. The bathroom ventilation system seems to draw in smoke from smoking areas outside the hotel (as the hotel itself is non-smoking), which is a bit unpleasant. Switching off the room A/C caused the room temperature to drop steeply overnight, while leaving it on means some noise. We didn't try the breakfast as it was not included in the rate.

Maria Fernandez Perfect for a romantic stay

13 December 2009

7.8

+ It is a nicely situated hotel with a serene room decoration, which offers a pleasant neutral atmosphere for everyone's taste. The very high ceilings and long windows with the beautiful view over the park (I stayed on 3rd floor) with its long dark heavy curtains give a romantic touch to the room. Nicely aired, fresh and clean room and bathroom, a comfortable bed. The lift was barely heard from my room which was a definite plus point. In summary, a good traditional Amsterdam hotel, which puts you in the same mode as the city, you'll feel like you belong.

- Only the size which actually is part of Amsterdam and can be quite cute. I could say that the double room was a bit too small for two people, with one of the bed sides against the wall and a tiny bathroom with hardly any space to put down toiletries. As I stayed by myself it was perfect, and so it would be for a fresh couple, I'm sure. If planning to stay with a friend then I'd suggest you request a double room with twin beds for more comfort.

Anonymous Charming hotel close to Vondel Park

+ It was great location if one wanted to visit the museums and wanted to be a quieter section of the city. The hotel was clean and quiet and it was nice being near the Vondelpark. I would definitely recommend it to my family and friends if they visit Amsterdam.

+ Very friendly staff, especially Martin behind the bar. Great location, tasteful furnishings and Christmas decorations

- 1. It was very cold weather outside during our stay, and it felt quite cold in our room at times. 2. No on-site parking - the nearest car park is very expensive

Agnieszka Kulinska Nice hotel close to the centre

+ Location, nice lobby

- Walls could be re-painted, the room looked a little shabby.

Andre White Nice Hotel in Museum Area

7 December 2008

8.2

+ The price of a two night stay in a single room wasn't too bad. Location is good as it is near Rijksmuseum and Van Goh Museum as well as Vondelpark, Casino and Leidsensplein area. Modern-style lobby area was appealing.

- Single room was a bit small - not ideal for a stay of more than a couple of nights. Breakfast was not included in the room price.

Riel Gloriani Samoy Almost excellent except no free Wifi even at the lobby

1 December 2008

7.6

+ Great Staff. Fast Service.

- No free Wifi even at the lobby. There are some business emails that needs to be checked and the customer need to pay extra for it. I think this is the only thing that lacks in this Hotel.

Anonymous Great Value, Good Location.

30 November 2008

8.4

+ Nice location by the Vondelpark on the edge of the centre of the city. Professional, friendly staff. Clean and seemingly well maintained facilities. Bar/lounge open late.

- Drab decorations in the rooms don't match the reception area facade.

Aaron Nice hotel, good location. Small rooms only drawback.

5 November 2008

8.2

+ Hotel is in a good location near to the lively Leidesplein area. Trams take you to Dam Square etc in only a few minutes. We stayed in October when it was very cold outside but the hotel was lovely and warm. The general areas (reception/bar/dining) were very modern. The staff were helpful and friendly.

- Room was very small. We stayed for 4 nights. The only aspect of our double room that was suitable for 2 people was the fact there were 2 beds. However, there was only room for storing one suitcase and the wardrobe was only large enough for 1 persons clothes. No air-con may be an issue in summer but wasn't for us in October. All in all we would stay here again but would try and get a larger room.

Carlos Marcucci Good choice

Andreas Nice and cosy hotel

19 August 2008

6.8

+ very nice and uncomplicated staff / stylish interior / cosy atmosphere / free internet in the lobby

- breakfast wasn't included, elevator looks trashy (in comparison to rest of the hotel;)we would like to recommend that towels are only renewed when signaled by the guest by placing them on the floor, instead of everyday (this would be more economic)!

William Mitchell Very impressed!!

+ Excellent. Very good value and great location. My room was spotless, modern and very comfortable, not like many run down places in Amsterdam. I was genuinely very impressed. Bathrooms were excellent. The overall hotel was of an equally high satndard. Would certainly recommend staying here. Before arriving my room requests were also met with no fuss - very good!

- The room could have been bigger (as always) though was by no means small. A single room with Desk, chair, wardrobe, bathroom - was ample.
