Dikker And Thijs Fenice Hotel - Amsterdam 52.36502, 4.88411

Great Location, very central but in a quite street. Perfect for exploring all areas of Amsterdam. You may be it a bit apprehensive as you go up to your room as the corridors are a bit old and shabby, but the rooms arent. Really nice and spacious and such comfy beds! And we had beautiful a view over Prinsengracht canal.

Our room in this hotel was one of the nicest I've had in Amsterdam. We were on the fifth floor and had our own balcony, as well as a spacious bathroom with windows and a lovely bath - not common in Amsterdam hotels! The bed was comfortable and the room was well furnished. It's in a very central location but wasn't too noisy. There were only a couple of minor things I would criticise: 1 Hotel reception staff were friendly enough but seemed a bit hassled at times, as if they were understaffed. 2 Use of the internet on the computer in the hotel lobby was very expensive and it was quite complicated to log on initially. 3 Provision of tea / coffee in the room was quite stingy. This is quite common in Dutch hotels, with the exception of Banks Mansion where we usually go -it's a more expensive hotel, but drinks and snacks are totally free. Not that I'm saying this hotel should follow suit, but a few more sachets of coffee and tea would be welcome!

Very comfortable hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Nice location, 1 Km to Central station, close by the Museum area and Ann Frank's House.

The hotel was walking distance to shops and eateries and pubs and everthing else that we did.The room was very nice and clean. The only negative was no free internet.

Like the rating above, I was happy with cleanlyness, the room was nice - good size , reception service was ok, too, not overly friendly, but certainly not unfriendly. Location is good, lots of eateries around. But noise level from the street is extreme! To leave window open at night is impossible due to tram and people (and all night) , which is a bit a problem on hot days, as there is no aircon.

I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at the hotel and stayed for 3 nights. I asked for a room with a view, which was a great view of the canal outside the front of the building. Some have complained about the noise from the tram and people walking by outside, but I found the noise level to be quite acceptable and the bells from the tram were actually soothing in a way. I often left the big bay window open just to feel like I was a part of this bustling city, while cozy in my room on the third floor. The staff was pleasant and friendly, but in that particularly distant way that Amsterdammers are known for. However, they seem to lighten up a bit when you say "Dank u wel". Even if they look at you like you're out of your mind trying to speak Dutch. The room itself was fairly large for Europe and the bed was quite comfortable. And the bathroom was clean and modern. I think the best part of this hotel was its location. It's right near the Leidseplein with dozens of restaurants, bars, stores and coffeeshops nearby and a tram stop on the corner for when you might want to explore other parts of the city.

Hotel well placed close to both city centreand the museum district, very comfortable, big room, friendly staff and great value in comparison to other hotels I have stayed imn.

room did not have A/c, and was very hot and humid so we ask for fan we got a small disk fan.Finally we end up opening the windows, it was too noisey, we could not sleep because hotel was in the middle of bars and night clubs, so noise continued until 6:00am. Beds mattress were very uncomfortable we end up with a back pain every morning. Bathroom had only a stall showers not tub,and it was very small that only takes one person at a time. when we request different room we always hit with we do not have a single room empty and we got this room because we check in late and they give away most rooms, even though they know we would be in late. I believe this hotel did meet 4* status, I will give it 2*. Also we were asked to pay taxes for the room even i explained that hotel was paid in full in the state.they forced us to pay it, so we end up paying to avoid problem in foreign country.

Excellent Location! You are a short walk from good restaurants, shows, or quiet along the canals with a tram stop close by for ventures further afield. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We felt like we were in a very quiet small city (with all kinds of options no other small city would have).

Our room was basic, clean, good-sized but lacked any "old-world" charm that we anticipated. Location is perfect and made up for any disappointment in terms of the room. Tram and bus stops are right by the hotel, easy walking to most Amsterdam sights, and canal activity right in front of hotel was always interesting.

Lovely hotel in the Leidseplein area of Amsterdam, with a selection of bars and places to eat nearby and many high street shops on the doorstep. My partner and I stayed for 2 nights at the beginning of May 2009. Be sure to request a room with canal view. We were in room 307 and had a lovely view. The room was a decent size and no noise from other rooms could be heard. The staff on reception were very friendly and it was manned around clock. Unfortunately, we did not have breakfast included in the cost of our stay, so cannot comment on this. The price per night was average for a stay in Amsterdam, as hotels in the city are not cheap. There is a tram stop right outside of the hotel which is very handy, but walking to places such as Dam Square and Vondelpark is easy enough and takes around 10-15 mins. All in all a great stay and would definitely recommend to those looking for a comfortable stay in one of the nicest areas of Amsterdam.

Nice hotel. Close to main street and city tram. Great location. Definitely, I would stay there again.

Great Hotel Fab location Loved every minuted in Amsterdam. The Hotel is in a excellent spot. We walked everywere from the hotel muct asmit my feet were killing by the end of our trip but it was worth it to walk along the cannals. Our room had a cannal view which was beautiful. Everything we needed for a short break in amsterdam

Spotlessly clean hotel in an excellent location if you like to stroll, eat well and take in the views.

Highly recommended though make the short walk into town to avoid the high prices they charge in the bar and restaurant.

This hotel is right in the middle of all the action of Leidseplein, every kind of restaurant, coffee and smart shop is within easy walking distance. Pleasant front desk that will lend out umbrellas and adapters, which was VERY convenient.

The hotel is in a very convenient location. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable. The staff was a bit officious but fine. The big problem is that the hotel faces the Leidestraat which has trams and shoppers making noise on it all day long (the trams start clanging their bells at 6:00 AM and, worse still, when the bars close on the Leidseplein at 4:00 AM, the street is full of really noisy drunken people, who stop right outside at the all-night sharmwa stand.

I was very unhappy with the service at the hotel. The people who worked at the front desk were extremely unhelpful with city information (just one small example - we asked about an internet cafe and she sent us to one about 22 blocks away when we later found out that there was one two blocks from our hotel). We were unable to receive calls from the US late at night because even though there was supposed to be someone at the desk 24 hours a day, there wasn't, and they don't offer direct calls to the rooms. And most offensively, they came in to clean our room every day, even though we left the 'do not distub' sign on the door (I am very particular about not having strangers move my clothes and other items, and they came in the room and moved things around completely without our permission). The hotel itself was nice, but I was very dissatisfied with the staff and their support.

The rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. The staff was knowledgable, but not too friendly. The breakfast, which is included, was varied and delicious.

1. Hotel is currently under construction- not mentioned in the hotels.com review 2. No desk services such as currency exchange 3. No in room safe 4. Breakfast was a continental breakfast 5. Room view was an industrial street-not senic street as promised 6. rooms were dirty 7 showers had mold

This is a great hotel that is located close to the popular museums in Amsterdam (Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh). Also walk to Heineken brewery. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Right next to Prinsengracht tram station is very convenient!

I was impressed by the staff's attentiveness, their attention to details, and their all around friendliness and willingness to help a tourist at any time of the day. When I asked to not have my room cleaned one day they insisted I get everything I paid for - I was impressed they didn't take the lazy way out some other hotels do. This was the perfect location to suit my needs. It's right on a canal, public transporation is EASILY acessible, and good restaurants/bars are only steps away. Their light breakfast spread is the perfect start to the day. I planned my stay far in advance, so it was a great value! I will always stay here when I return to Amsterdam...no doubt about it!

The hotel is nice central both to the museum and downtown. Room We stayed at was very large and delicious, with views of both the canal and pedestrian. Around the corner are many lovely cafes. Moreover, stop right outside the door for not less than 3 tram lines.

très bon rapport qualité prix

Perfekt läge. Lugnt men ändå mitt i. Lite dyrt i förhållande till standard men det mesta i Amsterdam är dyrt. Helt ok rum mm.

Bel hôtel d'un prix raisonnable comparé à ses concurrents. très bien situé. Les chambres sont spacieuses, très confortables. Un bémol pour la climatisation très bruyante (bourdonnements toutes les 5 minutes) dans la chambre où nous étions.

Bästa läget, största rummen, otroligt fräscht, och trevlig personal. Kommer helt klart återvända till detta hotell nästa gång jag besöker Amsterdam.

Service de très bonne qualité, de très grandes chambres dans un cartier animé et propre d'Amsterdam. Facile d'accès à quelques pas des musées.

Lækker placering og stort og rent værelse

très bel hotel, bien situé, très calme et de prestations de grande qualité

Hotellet är beläget i ett lugnt område men ändå väldigt centralt och nära till allt. Mycket hög standard på rummen.

Et helt greit hotel i Centrum av Amsterdam.Kort vei til serverdigheter,barer og restauranter!.Litt slit hotel,men bra standard paa rom.Rent og pent.Savnet endel elementere ting som stryke muligheter.Et heltgreit hotel til en meget overkommelig pris!

Lett å finne. Tram 1, 2 eller 5 fra sentralbanestadjonen går rett forbi hotellet. kort vei til utelivet og butikker.

værelset var stort og havde en god udsigt. Komforten var fin. Receptionen var imødekommende og venlig. De fysiske rammer for denne var ikke noget at råbe hurra for. Væerelset behøver et gensyn.

Schönes Hotel direkt an der schönen Prinsengracht. Fußweg in die Innenstadt, Geschäfte, Museumsviertel und nette Restaurants und Bars direkt um das Hotel. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Sehr nette Rezeption.

perfekte lage direkt an einer tram-haltestelle, alle zentralen ziele auch zu fuß erreichbar (anne-frank-haus ca. 15 min., Rijksmuseum ca. 10 min.); sehr sauberes bad, feines bett, tee und kaffee gratis am zimmer;

Dette er et fantastisk bra hotell, i et flott område, og behagelig langt unna tulleplasser som red light. flotte restauranter og barer rett utenfor, enorme rom, topp standard, og veldig hyggelig betjening. Hit kommer vi garantert tilbake!

Schönes Hotel , mit teilweise sehr schönen Zimmern im Herzen von Amsterdam , direkt an der Prinsengracht .

Notre chambre était exposée au bruit. Chasse d'eau défectueuse et pas réparée malgré nos demandes. Propreté moyenne (poussière dans les placards). Sinon chambre assez grande et hôtel bien situé (proximité centre).

Hotel très bien situé, à quelques dizaines de mètres de tous types de restaurants. Quartier animé mais hotel très calme. Grande chambre avec vue sur le canal, c'est très agréablele matin au réveil et le soir avant d'aller se coucher. Personnel aimable et compétent.

Zentral gelegen (kaum steigerungsfähig), beste Nahverkehrsanbindung; dennoch ruhig (bei Zimmerlage zur Gracht); Nichtraucherzimmer - insgesamt angemessenes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis

Das Hotel liegt hervoragend an einer Straßenbahnhaltestelle direkt an einer Gracht. Das personal war sehr nett, das Frühstück hervoragend abwechslungsreich und das Zimmer groß, sauber und mit tollem Ausblick.

Perfect location right downtown. I use to leave in A'dam for 5 years and picked that hotel based on my knowledge of the city. I highly recommend this hotel.

super zentral gelegen, ein wenig laut, aber damit muss man leben, wenn man mitten drin sein will. super schönes grosses zimmer mit aussicht auf die prinsengracht.
