Bed and Breakfast Amsterdam

We stayed a week here and enjoyed it very much, Our host, Paul, was very attentive and we especially enjoyed our private canal tour in his boat with a lovely assortment of delicacies and drinks. The apartment is very spaceous and bright. Very comfortable bed and we enjoyed both the canal view and the deck from which we enjoyed the evening sunshine. We would definitely come again if we return to Amsterdam.

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying in Paul and Karen’s canal suite for 4 nights in August 2023. It was the perfect place to call home while traveling! The suite was spacious and spotless with attention to any detail a visitor may need taken care of. Paul spent time with us at check-in to review all that the suite had to offer, local transportation, grocery shopping options, restaurants, attractions and more. The daily ‘treats’ were beyond delicious and so very much appreciated. We walked everywhere – center city began a mere 20-25 minute walk (through Vondelpark) away. Trams were readily available nearby and easy to navigate, but walking afforded us the opportunity to get a real feel for each neighborhood we wandered through. We loved coming back to a quiet neighborhood after a full day of touring. Restaurants are abundant both in the city and near the BnB, but we enjoyed relaxing in the suite’s solitude with take-out and a bottle of wine! A perfect end to a wonderful day. For everyone and anyone able to navigate an admittedly steep set of stairs up to the third floor, look no further - the canal suite is heaven. We were not able to take advantage of Paul’s boat ride through the canals because of rain. We look forward to booking that tour when we definitely return to our ‘home away from home’ at Paul and Karen’s one day.

Absolute perfect with so many nice and cute little touches which are appreciated. From a few days before I called to check all is good and we can drop luggage off early ( and we could) to last minutes in person goodbye. Arrived in morning and Karen welcomes us when we dropped off luggage. Walking distance into centre, tram is also very easy. Lovely walk though the park. Nice to be near but could get away a bit in the evening. Nice to just walk around and relax. Loads of different restaurants around. Low to high prices. We stayed in one night and cooked. Supermarket about 200m away. Kitchen is simple but enough to make a simple meal. Also a HEMA shop a further 100m away in case you need any other daily essential. Nice little cakes in the afternoon to welcome us from a long day of walking. No complaints at all. Will definitely return and recommend.

I cannot rave enough about my stay at Bed and Breakfast Amsterdam. This room was amazing and delivered all that the description had of it. This was by far the most romantic room I have stayed in. Fine attention to thoughtful detail coupled with some little extras I did not expect was just the beginning. The hosts were available for any questions and offered up suggestions that I was greatly appreciative of. There is a book in the room that gives you a breakdown of all of the must see places while there that came in very handy. I felt I really was able to maximize my time there with the book helping me to be sure I hit the must see item! I am planning another trip to Amsterdam and will most certainly be staying at Bed and Breakfast Amsterdam again.

Our stay at Bed and Breakfast Amsterdam could not have been any better. We had the upstairs family flat for our group of 5 friends and it was perfect. We loved the canal view, neighborhood stores, bakeries, restaurants and location. We added the “fridge fill” so we were able to make our own breakfasts each morning. When we came home from a long day of touring, it was nice to find some yummy treats left for us. We also took advantage of the canal tour on the owner, Paul’s boat. The tour, info, and snacks and drinks on board made it a delightful experience. The only hesitation we had was the steep stairs up to our unit, but the owner carried our bags and none of our group-all 70 years old!- had any trouble with them.

Paul and Karen are spectacular hosts...they left us with Dutch treats each day. The space, bedding and towels were very clean. The area was walkable and had everything you might want. This accommodation may be difficult for people with mobility issues due to upper staircase. There didn't seem to be an outlet in bathroom for hair dryers, etc. Overall, we very much enjoyed staying at B&B Amsterdam.
