Nice hotel in Amsterdam.

Perfect place to stay while exploring Amsterdam. Very convenient for a family. Clean and tidy, right in the city center.
Yaara, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very Clean room. But the stairs are tough to walk. Only for young people to walk up and down with small luggage. No Lift.

4/10 Fair

N elevator

Good location. There is no mention of no elevator i was given a room on the top floor and had to climb a ridiculously steep and narrow sets of spiral stairs with all my luggage. The desk clerk helped me with my suitcase on my arrival and I carried my own bags down when I left. Never again
FREDERICK, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

As a solo traveler, I love to stay here. It’s very centrally located and the rooms are comfortable. I usually only stay a couple days in Amsterdam so the Hotel Van Gelder is a great choice. If you want a simple stay and don’t need a lot then I highly recommend staying here. Good prices and nice staff.

No regrets about staying at van Gelder hotel, the staff massive friendly they always willing to support and make your stay comfortable. The hotel is tiny but clean, and its location is great (walkable ) near to central station, with many restaurants, coffee shops, coffee and shopping centres near.
Gabriel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good and not so good

This is a mixed review because some of my stay was excellent, and some of it was challenging. The good: Great location… Close to everything! The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful… Going above and beyond. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The not so good: this was, I suppose a typical Amsterdam building… In that, there were very steep stairs and My room was on top of a very, very steep Spiral staircase. Fortunately, the Gentlemen at the registration was able to carry my suitcase up all the stairs for me and the staff was able to bring it back down. Also, although my bed was very comfortable, just know that it’s a very basic room… It Was the right place to stay if you just need somewhere to sleep In a good location…And that was the case for me.
Gail, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A no-frills hotel choice. Functional and good location. Very tight quarters, but so is everything in Amsterdam. The staff are helpful and friendly, and provide fresh towels and room cleaning everyday. Other tenants staying here can be noisy, but this is not hotel's fault. Overall good, and I would use again. Very affordable as well.
David P., 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great central location

Hotel was very close to Amsterdam Central Station and very convenient for the city centre. Rooms recently updated, very comfortable and clean with good facilities. Only word of caution is the property has very steep narrow stairs so if you have any mobility issues request the lowest floor.
CHRISTIE, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely room, room had recently been upgraded. Comfortable beds & nice bathroom. Only down side was on the top floor without a lift however the stairs were manageable.

jamie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location, clean hotel.

The hotel is conveniently located. Our room which was on the top floor was very clean, comfortable, equipped with air conditioner. Bathroom was modern and clean. No breakfast but they gave 10% coupons to nearby restaurants. The only downside are the stairs which are too steep and look kind of dangerous and we were not looking forward to going up and down. But I wouldnt fault this to the hotel.

EXCELLENT location if you come in by train. Short walk from station, and right on the main tram line. Amazingly quiet given that it is on the main street coming from the RR station. Very comfy bed. Able to store luggage before check-in and after check-out.
