The room was small, not even enough to open my luggage bag easily. The staff at the reception when I checked in was somewhat rude. Location was great but other than that no reason to stay here again.

Location was convenient for public transport. Cleanliness was ok (carpet and walls were a bit dirty to me). Very nice staff. Overall a decent hotel in Amsterdam, you get what you pay. Travelled as a couple.

Good location but the hotel itself is quite dated. Small, stuffy room. Linens not too clean. Lousy breakfast. Staff was very nice. Not a good value for price paid.

Very nice location of the hotel, in the city center, however it was in a street that was not very busy so perfect to rest since there is not much noise. Friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast.

Perfect. Highly recommend.
Great location - very close to multiple tram/bus stations. Very easy walk to numerous clubs/cafes/restaurants and stores (including a grocery store). Quiet and safe little neighbourhood despite being so close to a bustling part of the city. Safe is super friendly and helpful. My room (solo traveller) was EXTREMELY small - however immaculately clean and comfortable. If I ever came back to Amsterdam, I would absolutely stay here again.

Disappointing
We had 3 rooms. There were mosquitos in 2 rooms and 4 of us got properly bitten on both nights. There’s no aircon which made the nights very humid and uncomfortable. The fans provided just moved hot air around the room. Smelt of cigarette smoke. The bathrooms were very old and no shower cubicle, just a shower curtain which made the very small bathroom floor wet. Had to sit on the toilet sideways as the wall in front left no room. However the staff were friendly but that didn’t help with our rooms.

We loved the location of this hotel. Unfortunately our room was so hot and it made for comfortable sleeping almost impossible. If we open the window there was little air flow and the street noise made it even more difficult to sleep. Oh well, we still loved our trip. But a small air conditioner would be ideal and the noise would help with the street noise.

A pleasant, walkable space with affable staff! If I could offer suggestions for improvement, our room was very warm without the window open and we were surprised our bathroom door could not be shut due to being oversized. Overall a pleasant stay!

Comfortable and Well-Situated
Second time at the Prinsen Hotel and would definitely recommend to other travelers. Just outside of the busy Leidsplein area, the surroundings are quiet and low-key. The day/night and housekeeping staff are very friendly and helpful. The room is clean and, while small, contains everything you need to be comfortable. The outdoor seating area is very appreciated. I will definitely consider this hotel again when visiting the area.

Location was excellent, could walk to virtually all the sights, and also close to Vondelpark. Buffet breakfast also very appealing, albeit a bit of a lottery as to whether a table was available when we went. Reception and breakfast staff were charming and helpful. Our room was nice enough for us, though some might have found it small.

Good location, but beware of room size.
The hotel was tidy and it is very close to major attractions in the city of Amsterdam. The breakfast was reasonable too. However, my only complain was that I was given a very, very small room, about the size of two single beds. I was surprised that the charge of this room is the same as my friend, who had a room twice the size. I think the hotel should be fair and charge less for an attic room.

The Good The Bad And The Ugly .
The Hotel staff are nice and helpful. No drinks at the bar it was closed and no draft beer we went down the road to the Marriot. We had room 17 which is far too small for 2 people as one has to climb over the other to get out of bed and the sink is in the bedroom . Def not worth what it cost us. The room is very hot at night ( without the heating on ) so we had the window ajar but the noisy drunks wake you up outside coming back from clubbing between 3 and 5 .30 am . Next time get a room at the back of the hotel .Breakfast is not great either !The bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean and nice cotton. PS no kettle in the room. Sorry I will not be back !

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Sadly my room was extremely small and extremely hot… at least 6degrees C hotter than the outside. No fan was provided. So overall the room was not comfortable. The toilet was very difficult to use due to the lack of space. My room was made up, bathroom supplies replaced but bed was not made which I found strange. Breakfast was okay just toast, pastries… some eggs or bacon would’ve been nice. Enjoyed the cat.
