A couple of steps above a dump, really. Mirror light over the micro sink didn’t work, safe didn’t work properly, Light switch at door didn’t work. There was one pillow on the twin bed which was as thick and hard as an upholstered chair pillow. Paper-thin walls with thumping and screaming children. Breakfast was pretty decent, with hot items, but coffee was horrible. I would give it 2.5 stars, but not 3.

Great but be careful about choosing your room.
Wonderful place with friendly and hard-working staff. My only issue was that my room was on the first floor, next to the janitor's closet and dining area. At night, I heard someone pull things from the closet, making a loud noise from either the dining area or the closet. I woke up several times. So, you would request a room not next to the dining room and maybe upper floors.

Great location for a budget hotel. No air conditioning but a fan was provided. If window was open, you could hear some traffic. Staff were very polite and helpful. Tram on the corner. Only negative was the hard pillows. They took some getting used to.

Walking distance to museums
Very clean hotel close to Museumplain (Van Gogh Museum and Reiksmuseum) with a good breakfast and friendly helpful staff. Room and bath were very tiny though- and no hotel lobby or sitting area , no extra frills . Fine for a night or 2 in Amsterdam.

Small hotel, with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Nice clean room, with modernized bathroom. Ultra convenient, located near main museums and major tram lines to take you to the rest of the city. Streetside room was a little noisy due to trams going by. Wish there was more storage for clothes- we had a small armoire with only 1 shelf for clothes that were not on hangers. A chest of drawers would have been handy (although hard to fit in such a small space). Overall, a good hotel that I would go back to.

Amsterdam has expensive hotels. The Bad We paid US$330 per day which included breakfast. The hotel is old Europe and the room was small. The mattress sagged and was uncomfortable. There is no air conditioning. We were happy to be there when the temperature was in the low 70s (F). The Good Great location of museum and supermarket. The staff was nice and English is spoken.

Avoid the single room at ground floor!!
The hotel locates at a nice and quiet neighborhood, also within very short walk to the museums. The single that I stayed was small but very clean and cozy. However, the nightmare started at late night when I was about to get a good night sleep for the long-haul flight next day. Divided by a very thin wall & door, all the footsteps, conversations, laughing and guests asking questions to the reception desk, early morning staffs cooking in the kitchen happening outside.....making my sleep impossible. I ended up putting on my noise-cancellation headset and set the cancellation to maximum. In short: this room should never be sold as a hotel room (for staffs only maybe), let along with local long weekend holiday, I ended up paying over 300 euros for such a nightmare. It's a ripped off and this should not be the right way to run business.

Good location near museums. We did not like: tiny room on top floor accessed by walking up to the top while lift stopped at floor below. Above all. we HATED the hard-as-rock pillows - when we complained the next morning, they said that they have softer ones, but those were not in the room when we needed them.

Nice hotel, room allocation a bit of lottery
I wrote a review elsewhere here after my last visit saying how disappointed I was with that stay. This visit, booked before my last stay, was far better. I was in room 32 which was small but perfectly fine, in contrasf to the truly dreadful room on my last visit. So it seems to be a bit of a lottery as to which room is assigned to you. Staff are helpful, location is excellent, and couldn't be more convenient for museum area. Only 2 minutes' walk to Concertgebouw concert hall. Hopefully this visit is more representative than last one.

Disappointing visit by regular
Very disappointing, sadly. I have stayed here 7 or 8 times previously, all of which were fine, and I mentioned I was a regular at check-in. Also brought a small box of biscuits as thank you to staff for help during last visit in August. Despite all that I was given the smallest room I've ever stayed in. The shower 'room' was so small the wash hand basis was installed outside it. I'd to do various contortions to get into the room, the door and bed were so tightly close. Dreadful experience. I'm a realist, I know rooms at this price in Amsterdam are modest, but this was crazy. So sad, after previous good stays, and the staff are very nice, room size not their problem!

Great hotel
We were really happy with the hotel it was better than expected for the price we’d paid. Situated in quiet area, very close to museums. Rooms were clean, breakfast was included which was an added bonus. Only suggestion is a bigger toaster (2 slice toaster meant a long wait for toast!). Staff were pleasant & helpful.

My husband and I were disappointed when we arrived and more so when we were assigned our room. We arrived early due to overnight transatlantic schedule, not expecting early access to our room, but a place to relax while waiting. The receptionist gladly stored our bags but reluctantly told us we could stay in the rear garden if we wished. We opted to walk around area. Hours later and exhausted, we returned to the hotel to learn that the lift only went up 3 floors and we had to climb another flight of stairs to reach our tiny room on the top floor. We are seniors who should have been notified in advance. We were physically unable to carry our bags up those stairs. The receptionist helped us. The room was tiny. My husband couldn't even fit in the shower. Breakfast was varied and okay if you arrived while food was still hot. Very crowded dining area. Some people had to sit outside. Overall, hotel is 2* at best and we would not return.

Great location, wonderful, helpful staff
First return to this hotel since Covid. It's a great location, perfect for the concert hall and main museums. Small rooms but typical of this city. Coffee facility in room a real plus. I'd a problem getting my room cleaned on second day. The cleaning staff said they'd do it straight away so I went for hour-long walk and coffee to let them do their job. Three hours later I was still waiting for them. Frustrating and ended up not getting room cleaned. That said, reception staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly, really nice people who make the stay that little bit extra. Apart from the cleaning glitch I'd a great return after 2.5 years and look forward to my next stay in 2 months.

Charming hotel, near main attractions. Breakfast is served for a price, if you are interested but there are so many options in town, you don’t really need it. Room was nice and clean. My only unhappy comment is the room was on the 4th floor and the elevator was only to the 3rd floor. Not the end of the world

Concert Hotrl is placed on great location close to Museum with good connection to public transportation. All rooms were always clean during my stuff and all personal great and helpful. Some rooms have a bit annoying shower and sometimes you can hear you neighbours, but personal is doing great job if there is any noise in late hours.
