It was an ok hotel. Well placed in central Amsterdam, not far from the main station. My only gripe was being asked to pay a 50 euro deposit for my room. No mention of this at the time of booking so if you don't have the 50 euros, you're in trouble. That's a rotten way to do business.

Excellent location for all main attractions. Hotel basic & clean but room very small and as we were on 3rd floor with no lift the steep stairs were a bit of a challenge. Reception staff were very helpful and would stay here again.

Stayed at this hotel for four nights over a long weekend just there, went with 3 friends and we had a quadruple occupancy room on the 1st Floor, non-smoking. The check-in went fine, had to pay city tax of nearly 50 euros but would have had to do this anywhere. However, we were charged a 100 euro deposit for the... More

This really is the perfect low cost hotel in Amsterdam. It has everything you want especially if you are only in town for a few days. Excellent location allows you to explore everything Amsterdam has to offer within easy walking distance and the friendly reception (which is 24 hour) is helpful with anything else you need. After a busy day... More

1 minute walk from Dam square, it cannot be more central. The room was perfectly clean, the bed was comfy and front desk people was friendly. PERFECT for the price I've paid! I recommend this hotel for everyone who doesn't wanna pay much but still be in a very clean place in central Amsterdam.

I had a single room on the first floor facing the road and it was very neat and well kept. As it was facing the road at times it was a little noisy because it is a very busy street but the noise wasn't bad. You're definitely in the heart of Amsterdam and can walk just about anywhere or ride... More

Dear Sir, I am sorry but we don't really understand what you mean with your reply? We are indeed not changing the towels daily since we care of our environment but if you like them to be changed, you just place them on the floor. Best regards, the management More

On a very last minute trip to Amsterdam, we were after somewhere that's good for the budget and comfortable; Hotel Damrak fit the bill. The good: hot private shower, free wifi, reasonably tidy twin room, baggage holding space for the few hours after you check out and nice staff (especially the man we first spoke to, I forget his name...
