Quentin Hotel - Amsterdam

Hotel staff was friendly and helfpul. There is someone at the front desk 24/7. Our room was very very small, but we weren't in their much so it didn't really matter to us. The shower is not separate from the rest of the bathroom so you basically flood the entire bathroom floor each time you shower, but other than that, we thought the room was fine. […] The bed was very comfortable. The hotel is in a convenient location if you're looking to do all the tourist attractions. Short walk to the National Museum and Anne Frank House, and Leidseplein Square, which is an ultra-tourist night life area. Read more

Hotel is nice and the lift is fairly new and well-maintained. The rooms are very, very small and hard to move around in. Also, very difficult to get luggage up and down the front steps, which are very steep, to get to the lobby area. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and great service by cleaning staff as well.

The room was tiny. Like very small. But it was in a good location. Definitely walking distance to everything. Staff was nice and helpful, room was clean, and we only got one pillow each, which was irritating. Otherwise, great hotel. We would stay again, but not if we planned on being in the room much

Ive stayed here 4 times in the past 7 years. Always clean, a good price and close to the museums and some great coffee shops and food as well. Tram, canal bus, and bus stops just about 100 feet away. Very convenient!

I can't say enough about this hotel. It was my first stay and I could not have been more pleased. It's around the corner from the Liedesplein, but far enough to get a good nights sleep if you know what I mean. Walking distance to the major museums, shops and numerous restaurants. Lots of canals and picture taking opportunities. Also on the same street […] as a movie theater and a performance theater with a very nice restaurant. Lots of trams going in whatever direction you need to go. The hotel itself is very clean with very friendly and helpful staff who speak various languages including english of course. It has a lovely breakfast room overlooking a canal. Great view! I have visited Amsterdam many times over the years and have stayed at various hotels. The Quentin Hotel will be my first choice in the future. Read more

It was very close to the cafe's, restaurants and trams! The hotel was lovely the only thing was that our room had no window, apart from that lovely hotel and close by to the cannal and beautiful sights!

I have been to a few lousy hotels but I had never seen a toilet with containing the bloated fecal matter of the previous occupant. After complaining we were moved to the room next door, where the water in the toilet was stale, but at least it didn't contain human waste. Not to mention the lack of fridges, the unbelievably small size of the room, the […] rotten carpet, etc. I regret not taking a photo to deter people in the most convincing way possible. Stay well away! Read more

Hotel exceeded my expectations! Close to the train station and right around the corner from plenty of pubs, CAFE'S, and restaurants! Everything else was a short taxi ride/tram ride away and canal tours were conveniently a few steps from the hotel. Only complaint was that the luggage room smelled really bad. Overall, I would definitely recommend this […] hotel and would return again! Read more

Location is great for seeing Amsterdam. Easy walk to park, museums and trams (that can get you anywhere in city for 7 euro per day). My room was small, basically a bed closet and desk - that was all I needed as I spent very little time there. Facility was clean, read previous reviews that the lift was not functional, burt worked fine during my stay. […] Nice view of canal. Breakfast was simple, but served my purpose. Read more

People there were very friendly & helpful; besides staying on 4th floor, everything was fine. We loved the location & it was walking distance to everything plus beautiful view of the canal. Breakfast was simple but satisfying w/yogurt, & local breads, coffee & juice. Also, need to know that the stairs were a very steep spiral & elevator out. For the […] price, nice clean room w/good water pressure in shower & comfortable beds, along w/wonderful view if you get canal view. I loved Amsterdam & will stay @Quentin Hotel again hopefully soon when I return. Read more

Room was small and had a view of another wall two feet away. They were working on the elevator while we were there and it was pretty obnoxiously loud in the morning. Also considering that the elevator was broken, the hike up 4 flights of stairs as steep as ladders was kinda of winding. I know typical lazy american. Overall my stay was good with this […] hotel, ht eare was perfect, loved the staff and would stay again with a better view and the elevator working. Read more

This place was good for the money and a 2 star rating. My husband and I were on a 2 week backpacking trip through Europe, Amsterdam was our second stop. The room was small but the bed was right up against a window and raised off the floor so it felt big and was nice. The bathroom was small but we thought we were going to have to share so it was great […] to have a small private bathroom! The location was great, in a cool neighborhood and with a tram that makes going to and from the train station and major sights very easy. The gentleman at the front desk was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. I recommended this place for 2 nights max, we had a great time here! Read more

great location to Leidesplein area... however, cleanliness of room & bathroom is definitely more than a "maintenance problem" ...we booked this hotel as a 3.7 star ....I don't think so! there are many choices for accommodations in Amsterdam that are far more appealing...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

On the plus side, the location is convenient, about a block off from the Rhine river (no river view), and right near the main shopping area. Also, within walking distance of many small attractions such as the castle and the aquarium. They have parking in back of the hotel at no extra charge which was a plus. The breakfast spread is good and includes […] fresh fruit cut up daily, a variety of cereal, rolls and sliced meats and cheese. Better than I expected. On the minus side, the shower swings from hot to cold constantly, no matter what time of day, which takes a bit of tolerance. Also I tried having breakfast near the window in their small 20 seat dining room. No one else was there when I arrived (nor there while I had breakfast) yet I was told I couldn't sit by the window and was usherd to the corner tables. I'll never understand what her problem was. So note to single travelers, don't try to sit by the window and eat breakfast. Read more

The location was great. The elevator was not working and the stairs were very steep to walk up especially with luggage. The wifi was not working either, they wanted me to walk to their sister hotel to use the internet. there was hotel renovation that was going on. Maybe a better experience if elevator was working. Could have been cheaper if all those […] things were not working. No compensation at all. Very basic- good only if you need a place to sleep and when traveling light. Read more

You can't beat the location -- Liedesplein, very near to Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, easy walk to downtown Amsterdam. And the price is good. But my, what a coffin for a room. Elevator's been broken forever. Amenities are nearly nonexistent. So it's all about the location and the price. If you figure to be too drunk or stoned to care where you sleep, […] you'll do fine; otherwise, shop around and spend up. Read more

This hotel is 2 blocks away from Leiseplein. There is a canal stop a block away. Fabulous location!!! The room was insanely small! The bed was a fine size, but it was pushed all the way to the back of the room and it touched all 3 walls. The remaining part of the room could MAYBE have fit another bed - that was the room. The elevator was broken and […] we were on the 4th floor. The staircase was a bit of a death trap. it is a curving staircase that is really narrow and SUPER steep - you kind of feel like you are scaling a mountain climbing those - especially with your luggage.

I think this hotel doesnt meet anyones expectations, the daily fee was high, not at all meeting the kind of service I have been offered. the hotel has no elevator, the room is very tiny ( for example the bathroom door hits the bed when widely opened) and had 2 big cracks is the wall al least 1 cm wide. And no breakfast offered included in the price […] which I find extremely high. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Well, first thing let's just mention the stairs. They are very steep and semi-circular. If you are the type of person who has to go back to the room four or five times a day, make sure to get a room on the first floor. But if you approach the stairs like it is a very easy to climb ladder, then they are not so bad. The janitor was kind enough to bring […] my heavy suitcase up for me when I arrived and was duly compensated. The room was clean and neat when I arrived and although there is no A-C was fresh and cool with cross-ventilation. Outside was the view of the canal and a stop for several canal boat services, one of which allows you to get on (first boat was 10:30 AM) and ride all day, getting off and on at your leisure. You can change to several other boats that cover practically every canal in the city. It's a great way to museum hop (or bar hop). Things are somewhat quiet at night outside around the Quentin, but right around the corner is the area known as Leidseplein, one of the hippest parts of town. It's a big square that is beautiful and bustling with activity day and night. Dozens of great restaurants, shops and bars. Several nice coffee places that are friendly and lively. The people in Amsterdam, (especially in the area around the Quentin) are so friendly that it really seems to be the safest place on earth. Also it should be noted that the hotel is about as far away from the infamous red-light district as you can get and still be in Amsterdam. If you're going there for the hookers you might find it inconvenient. At Leidesplein you can also hop on a trolley that will take you anywhere in town. Amsterdam is a city of bikes. Lots of visitors rent them, and as there are few hills in Amsterdam practically anyone can manage it. The staff at the Quentin was very friendly and helpful. The hotel does not offer a lot of services, but you know that going in. There is no room service but the desk does stock a cooler of beverages. It is a clean, comfortable place to cra Read more

Over all, I would consider this hotel to be good enough for the price that I paid for it. the room was small, but clean. The bathroom was small but also clean. I have OCD about the cleaness of a hotel or room. and I thought the Bathroom and Bedroom was up to my standards. The hotel staff was helpful and nice. The only complaint I have about this hotel […] is the fact that their WIFI is broken for the three days that I was there. The stairs was an unique experience, It was steep, but I felt that it contributed to the european experience. That's just my opinion of course. With regards to travel, It is closely located near the tram stations, you have the option of taking the number 5 or 2 train, if I remember correctly to get to the city center. It is also very close to the musuem district. We simply walked to the musuem district with out taking any form of public transport. Hope this helps, Safe travels. Read more

No frills but a perfect place to stay if you want something very basic, close to many attractions (minutes from Leidplein), and cheap! The staff was very helpful and nice. Everything was very clean and it was definitely worth the price.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Pros: 1. non-leaky roof over your head 2. no bed bugs 3. excellent location 4. walking distance to hot spots CONS: 1. the room does not qualify as a 'room'. it is a bed and a door. 2. the hotel commenced construction around 8AM! 3. You are lucky if you get rude customer service. 4. 20EUR deposit for a hair dryer or a remote control 5. how do you work […] the heater?!?! 6. no lock box! (not even at the front). IN SUM: I feel like I paid too much for a hole in the wall. Although the hotel was in a great location and was close to a lot of attractions, I will not revisit this hotel. Read more

We stayed in an economy double room to begin with and it was the smallest hotel room we have ever stayed in! Once we realised we could fit bags under the bed and got used to climbing over each other to get on and off the bed it was ok. We also had a night in a standard double room which was much more spacious and comfortable. If you can afford to pay […] a bit more it is worth it! The staff were ok. Some more helpful than others.

The hotel room was dirty and extremely small. I booked an economy double room and whilst I expected it to be very basic, for the price I at least expected it to be clean-AND IT WASN'T!!! Dirty Sheets, unclean carpet, sink and shower tray was dirty. Towels and toilet were unclean too. We were also situated just off reception outside the lift, so we could […] hear everyone entering and exiting the hotel all night. This was the worst hotel I've ever stayed in, I'd have rather stayed in a brothel!!! If you are after any sort of comfort during your trip....stay away. We booked Holiday Inn for the rest of our trip with free breakfast, Clean power shower and clean bed...HEAVEN!! Read more

Quentin Hotel is well-placed for sights, shops, restaurants in a lively part of Amsterdam. The staff are friendly and helpful. The room in which we stayed, however, is tiny,the width just accommodating the length of the double bed which was pushed up to the window-end of the room, so that you could only get in and out of it from one side. It was very […] clean, although the linen was changed only after two days and drain under the shower was very slow, so that the bathroom tended to flood when you had a shower.

As long as you're OK with step narrow stairs this is a great location and clean rooms. Not the most comfortable matress you'll ever lay your head on however.

for reasonable price staying in heart of dam was excellent location but for the room it was adequate except for four flights of very steep and windy stairs,hotel should invest in repairing lift that has been out of action since 2008.no kettle in rooms that was needed as has to go out just to get coffee.

I stayed in the economy double room and it was very small but comfortable enough with a good shower and comfy bed.

The hotel location was great but the rest was totally unacceptable. You are hit with steep stairs on the entrance to the hotel and you think that this is the only ones, think again !! The reception is clean and looks nice, the front staff are friendly and let us check in early which we were very pleased about. We where on the fourth floor , no lift […] , its broken and apparently it has been for some time and they have no intention of fixing it, in fact they have started to cover the lift doors with posters etc to desguise it. The stairs to the rooms are spiral tight and short dangerous steps, all the way up to each level. Whist trying to carry bags and people trying to squeeze past each other this is so dangerous and no health and safety considered what's so ever. If you are un- fit, older generation or have children this is not the Hotel to stay in Trust me, you couldn't possibly manage its exhausting going up and scary going down the stairs. The rooms are run down with paint on curtains, the bed spread is tatty and full of cigarette burns and holes, the carpet is flithy and the shower room the pole actually came off the wall and hit me on the head, its held in by a saftey pin and screw. I have stayed in many Hostel and many hotels and this resembled a run down Hostel for the price of a hotel. I know that you don't live in your hotel room you come to see the city and experience the culture etc but this is not worth spending your money on find some where else. Read more

The postive points were hotel location, which is in the heart of the city, and very friendly staff, whiich is pricelss. The negative points are: room size is less than small! It was realy a private cell! No elevator, not any facility in the room, extra deposit for hair drier and TV remote (will be return in check out), no phone in the rooms, NO Internet, […] It is a clear lie in their promotion!! It was dawn when I arrived and was less than dawn when I left!! The worst thing eas very very dangerous steps! It might be a clear risk for senior or even young travellers (seems it is a credit in the Netherlands!). It was a kind of ladder instead of steps! In my country it is the case of compliance order, and must be changed ASAP!! I said that as a certified health and safety officer. Ther rate is not match with the service,, If they got me 20 Euro per day it might be reasonable to stay here... But not for this price for sure .. I got a great experience that when I am not sure about a hotel it will be better to pay a little more and being comfort and safe. Read more

Lift did not work and we had to walk 5 flights of extremely steep stairs which were not to Standards and the handrails were also loose. On booking it said we had free Wi-fi in rooms. It did not work at all, not even in the lobby. Ideal if you just need a bed and not spending time in the room.

Exactly what we expected at a great price. The room was small (as expected in the Netherlands) but clean and in a convenient location. Just around the corner from the Leidseplein square so it wasn't loud at night but walking distance to some great sights. Hotel staff was nice, helpful and spoke great english. They even let us use their front desk […] phone to make a few local calls for free (all the payphones in Amsterdam seem to be broken). Our only concern: paper thin walls. We were unlucky enough to have some very loud neighbours in the next room. We would stay here again. Read more

For the price I payed for 4 nights here I wasn't expecting much, but I was very pleased. Sure some people would say its basic but my twin room had 2 beds, a toilet and a shower which were all fine and all I really needed as it was just a place to lay my head, the staff were friendly and spoke excellent English, they even provided free tour guides and […] gave us directions when we needed them. The hotel is in a great location right next to the Leidseplein which has a great night-life and loads of restaurants & coffee shops, it is also only a 20 minute walk from all the high street shops, Dam square and the Red light district and is surrounded by the beautiful canals and main attractions such as the Heineken experience, Anne Frank Huis, Vondelpark etc. Overall I would rate my experience here an 8/10 and would definitely stay here again next time I come to Amsterdam.

Rubbish, absolute Rubbish. We are absolutely disappointed with this hotel right from the moment we entered it. To start with 1] The lift was not working and we been given the 2nd floor room, so I had to take my all bags manually to the 2nd floor. There was no help or assistance offered by hotel staff. Addition to this the staircase was spiral so one […] can imagine how difficult to take your luggage up. 2] The room was dirty, if you dare to call it a room because it was supposed to be the double bed room but the size of the room was 6' x 9 feet and it was triangular. It was more like a match box. 3] The furniture was broken so the door of the wardrobe was not closing. 4] There was no mattress in the bathroom, so there was water every where. 5] There was a problem with the drainage so the water was not draining in the bathroom. In spite of complaints nothing been done. 6] We asked for the front room and been given the back room with only the walls facing in front of your window. 7] The only good thing about it was they let us check in before 2 o'clock. 8] There was no phone in the room, not even intercom, so no room service. 9] There was a problem with the extractor so the air in the room was not fresh, I will never recomend this hotel to anyone. In fact this hotel spoiled my entire amsterdam trip. Read more
