Not sure if in the description but it should be added if not. The stairs are difficult to traverse with large suitcases, pretty much a spiral staircase.

Great location, great Italian restaurant across the street.

Everything that was promised! Christian was great to deal with - unobtrusive but there to help if needed. And the property was great! Highly recommended!

Nothing. It was great! 3rd floor, so some stairs, but they were manageable, and Christian helped with the bags. It was not clear how to get the washer/dryer to just run a dry cycle, (my dutch is non-existent) but it was great to have to do some luandry.

Full Disclosure - I am not rating the Canal House Inn. The owner/manager(?) offered me a free upgrade to another property - an apartment overlooking a canal, close to the city center. It was amazing, and if you get a similar offer, I suggest you take it! Also, Christian - who was my contact (I think the manager, not the owner) was super responsive.

The Inn was comfortable, the location was close to everything we needed and the owner was friendly, helpful and always available.

Nothing I can think about.

The room was exactly as it was described and bigger. Extra clean and comfortable. Decor was simple, elegant and warm. It has two plants, and enough to be comfortable without taking unnecessary room away. There were sweets and good wine as courtesy. Smart TV with internet, premium YouTube and the possibility to connect your Netflix, Disney+, etc to it. Now the host, he was super!! Very attentive, flexible and kind. He told us of a very good places to go. Finally, the location. 10-15 mins walk from Central station, downtown, music center, and 5 minutes walk from main museum. The location was simply perfect.

Nothing really. A second bedside table would help though.

This is in just a lovely part of town, off the tourist trail, a long way from those things that, unfortunately, make Amsterdam a haven for groups of slightly debauched looking young men, yet only a couple of bus stops (or a 20 minute walk - the longer more picturesque way) from Central Station and indeed a nice walk into the centre by quiet roads, or a 14 tram from five minutes away. The house is modern, but in the manner of a typical small canal house, on what is still a working canal with lifting bridges. It has a lot of lovely bars and restaurants nearby and it's great not having to go into town in the evening with all its awfulness. We were concerned the room might be noisy, but with the window open on a Friday and a Saturday night there was almost no traffic noise and only the odd conversation from young people wending their way home. The room was very comfortable and clean; we were on the first floor with a big window looking over the canal. It really is a charming place. There was a good coffee maker, mineral water and even a half bottle of wine provided gratis.

The extractor fan in the bathroom was turned off.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff who also kindly offered to help carry our bags upstairs. Beautiful room with a great view of the canal. Excellent location close to shops, restaurants and metro. Very clean and neat.

Beautiful canal view. Restaurants nearby. Close to train station and lovely walk to museums. Christian was incredibly helpful with directions and suggestions.

Stayed in September 2023

Only minor thing was the bathroom was small but very clean and functional.

Location was great, very quiet street but walking distance to restaurants, museums, train station and many other things.

Stayed in September 2023

Perfect location, wonderful host, and fully equipped with everything a traveller may need. Although there were some road closures at the time of my visit and the bridge over the canal was being replaced, this spot was the perfect place to stay. Without knowing, I picked a spot very close to where my friends live, and following the host's recommendations, I was able to visit a bunch of really good spots for breakfast and lunch. I'd go with an option like this over a random hotel any time!

I would have liked a bed which could be used from both sides

Christian was the host par excellence. Even though he was leaving on holidays the day after our arrival, he made a point of spending an hour with us describing the neighbourhood and giving us tips on « best of » of all kinds. For a cherry on the sundae, he even called us from the airport the next morning just to check if everything was alright. His colleague, partner and replacement, Carlos was equally kind, effective and serviable.

Nothing .

We actually stayed in an apartment near as this property was fully occupied. But Christian was absolutely amazing with sorting everything out . I can’t recommend staying with any of his places enough. Perfect.

Stayed in July 2023

There was a technical error in the booking process and once we've completed it the owners, Christian, advised us it was double booked and our reservation is cancelled. He then immediately offered to move us to another apartment which was larger, better located and a great solution to the problem. Christian simply said yes to any request we had, including allowing us to checkout very late at the last day, which was superb. So while we did not get to see the Canal house our experience was excellent.

Canal House Inn is one of the best house-hotel in Amsterdam . As a couple we really appreciated cleanliness,something that is hard to find in Amsterdam. We appreciated the location of the hotel,the correctness of the staff and the useful information about the restaurants or bars around. It was a very pleasant stay for us.

Had to leave my luggage in a random Thai noodles bar😂

Everything

The hotel room was very cute and very clean. Christian was very nice and helpful, and his restaurant recommendations were fantastic. The hotel isn’t in the touristy part of town, but it’s still very easy to get to any part of town you want to visit. I will definitely be staying here again the next time I visit Amsterdam.

Stayed in July 2023

the suff was amazing. there is a bus a few meters from the house so it’s very convenient to get to the Center. very clean. small bathroom but it’s enough for a visibly in Amsterdam for a few days
