This is a very unique hotel and it is in a great location. Right in the heart of the Red Light District, this hotel is within walking distance from all the main sites. While traveling with my wife and two adult children, we got a room for four and we each had our own twin size bed, which worked out well. The bathroom is very small but I got the feeling this was just an Amsterdam thing and locations make the best use of their space there. The only drawback is due to the location, in the heart of the nightlife, it can be loud at times if your windows are open. But, that comes with the great location. Would definitely return on our next trip.

We booked a room with shared bathroom. The room was extremely clean. The weather was hot but the hotel kindly provided a fans for us which made it very comfortable to sleep throughout the night. It's nearby the train station and it's strategic location makes all the restaurants or cruise or anything you look for accesible and within your reach by foot.

I would give this beautiful place TEN stars if I could!
The hotel staff was fantastic… every one of them so pleasant and helpful (Sammy, Natalia, Anna… there were two others whose names I forgot).
The location was incredible… Close to everything: train station, tram stop, canal tour boats, restaurants, delicious local “fast food” places, quiet streets, landmarks, and beautiful canals.
The canal view from our room was spectacular, especially at night.
We enjoyed local snacks/delicacies while we sat on the bed just looking out.
It was really special.
The room and bathroom were super clean.
There is a restaurant and bar right in the hotel, that looked wonderful; but we were so busy exploring beautiful Amsterdam we found other places to try.

Thank you all at Hotel Old Quarter, for a wonderful stay! We’ll be back!

The room was fine except my partner got some bed bug bites! If that didn’t happen, I probably would have rated a 4/5. The room is ok size, single beds when asked for a double (but that worked out great for me given the bites)! Lots of stairs, as expected in Amsterdam.

Did not realize it was a shared restroom- which actually means a small closet on the stair landing one floor down that is divided into a toilet and decidedly uninviting stall shower with curtain for unknown number of guests - toilet stall was compromised with vomit in early am. Shower was a no-go without shoes which we did not have.
Room was in an annex across the street and few doors down-and a six floor walk up with tiny spiral staircase.

Convenient location. Cute bar. Nice staff.

Be prepared for the steepest, narrowest, most dangerous stairs imaginable. I actually thought I was going to die walking up and down. If you book, insist on the lowest floor! Also, there is no air conditioning, and the fan they provided make squeaking noises throughout the night.

We did not have a good experience here. The room was WAY too small and nothing like the pictures. We were there for 2 nights and asked if on the second night we could book 2 rooms for the same price (our reservation made with hotels.com a month in advance was $400/night, but at that time it was only $150/night) and were told no. It was a very very disappointing experience to not get a view, be in a cramped room, and listen to people vomiting in the alley our room overlooked both nights.

I cannot fault the lovely, helpful and friendly staff, the whole hotel was clean, linen, towels and such all spotless. Room service, when I chose to use it since only one change of towels needed, was excellent . BUT, I stayed in a single room, I doubt if you could swing a kitten in it, let alone a cat. To walk between the bed and the desk you had to turn sideways! The bathroom, again immaculate, was tiny - if you used the shower it flooded the whole bathroom floor despite a shower curtain. To dry yourself you had to do this in the room entrance lobby area, even then it was not easy, hardly room to turn round. My room, at the front of the hotel, an historic original town house, was broiling hot, I do mean broiling! I could not open the window further so with the curtain closed I had to use the supplied fan on maximum speed to keep the air circulating, air con is really needed. Their breakfast for me was great and, as it is a bar then this was ideal for a thirsty tourist - it was really warm outside so was I thirsty! A terrific location for tourists, easy walking distance to Centraal Station, trams, buses, Metro etc. Almost in the Red Light Area. Next time I will book a larger Canal view room. OH, sorry saying kitten - when I arrived they had just lost their elderly cat so were looking for a new kitten - hope you find one.

The staff was friendly and the hotel cat is adorable. Unfortunately the boiler was broken and our room had no hot water. My family and I had cold showers during our 2 day/2 night stay. The options we were given were to have use of a room’s shower downstairs, or to move to another location. After lugging luggage up to the 3rd floor, after having lugged it down and up to get to luggage storage, that wasn’t palatable. Honestly, some sort of refund was in order but that wasn’t offered. On another note, I want to ensure individuals who have never been to the area know that where the hotel is located is very touristy, full of men, in particular, who are seemingly there to party and be raucous. The street felt like a bad carnival catered to those who are there for the red light district and weed. It was loud and dirty and an abomination of the Amsterdam one sees in pictures. If you want a more beautiful, calm, and relaxing experience, my recommendation is to go to the other side of Amsterdam and avoid the area where this hotel is.

Nice old-style Hotel with its unique charming setting.

It was a perfect location with plenty of options nearby to find something to eat, shop, and centrally located for sightseeing. I can see that the summertime would begin to heat up and the rooms might be a bit warm without any AC. I was there during June 22 - 25 and these were the first warm days in 2026. My room was facing the water canal (back of hotel), and the sun heated the room in the late afternoon. During this time of year, it would be best to have a room facing the street (front of hotel) if possible.

The cleanliness was good, friendly staff, and standard buffet style breakfast.

I liked the charm of this hotel. The view from our room was great. We didn't need one and maybe other rooms had one but, there was no mini fridge for waters or whatever in our room. They either don't serve dinner or it just ends early. They do have a baggage hold area in case check out time is before your next travel time BUT, it is down an impossibly steep spiral wooden staircase. If you don't travel lightly, this could be a real problem for you. After a little talking to from the woman at the desk, which felt like berating, we were able to put our bags on the main floor in their cleaning closet which was most appreciated.

We booked into the hotel and expected to stay in the hotel with a chance of overlooking the canal, but when we checked in we were sent across the road to a seperate building which felt unsecure, and as we were on the first floor we could hear everyone walking past our room and loud voices and doors slamming constantly all times of the day and night. The room was clean and basic but ok. Bathroom was good and clean. Would not have booked this property if we knew we would be staying separately from the main hotel. Other to that the location was great and couldn't have been more central. Just would've liked some transparency about possibly not being in the main building, as the building we were in was so noisy and disrupted our sleep every night.
