Independent, Museum Quarter Hotels

Very nice quite location. Plenty of wonderful restaurants / bars nearby

We can't speak highly enough of the Hotel Fita. From the moment we arrived, when we were greeted with a friendly smile and hearty handshake by the owner, Roel, we felt welcome and at home. It is in an excellent location, about five minutes' walk from the Rijksmuseum. The rooms are clean, comfortable and warm and the breakfast is ample and delicious - particularly the pancakes! Roel gave us a map and spent a few minutes pointing out the location of several tourist attractions, told us the best way to get there and gave a few tips on other things to do, places to see, etc. There was also an excellent restaurant recommendation - the Seafood Bar, just a few minutes' walk away. Our visit coincided with the visit of St Nicholas and as the hotel is over the road from a kindergarten, it was lovely to watch the little children as they greeted him and his helpers. And the next morning was my birthday - made even more special by the fact that my boyfriend proposed to me that morning. When we told Roel, he was delighted - and when we returned to our room, there was a huge bouquet of flowers waiting for us from the hotel staff. Sadly we had to leave them behind, but we took wonderful memories with us and would heartily recommend the hotel to anyone.

We had a very enjoyable stay. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly with information on local restaurants and booking the return shuttle journey. Will certainly book this hotel on our next visit.

Couldn't be happier with our stay. Hotel was clean and friendly. Excellent location, close to nearby shops, canal tours, parks and restaurants. The free mini bar was handy, however Lidl was just around the corner (5 minute walk) so we did choose to stock up on more refreshments. The view from the deluxe room was beautiful and would recommend you upgrade, you won't be disappointed. Cannot wait to go back.

This hotel met my needs wonderfully. The room is small but had everything I needed. The staff was very friendly and offer good recommendations on things to do in Amsterdam. The location is nice; close to the attractions in the centre but also a short walk from other neighbourhoods as well.

Perfect hotel for city break, it's basic but everything you need and great value for money.

My husband and I traveled to Amsterdam for one night for a gig at the nearby Paradiso. This hotel is a 40 minute bus ride from the airport, in a central location; museums and historic canal areas are nearby. The only drawback to the building is steep staircases; but we didn't mind. Our room was very spacious and pleasant, well furnished, clean, with a modern bathroom and shower; at the top of the building, it had exposed roof beams--cool to stay in an old building that was renovated well. The bed was huge and very comfortable, and room heated up quickly. An ample cold breadfast with fresh bread and croissants was provided. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the price was reasonable. We would definitely return to this hotel and recommend it warmly.

Great location. Clean rooms. Good breakfast. Also able to buy tickets for a lot of attractions in the hostel lobby. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed at the iron horse for 3 nights and could not fault it. Nice size rooms and ensuite, friendly staff and most of all could walk to all touristy things and the main centre, would highly recommend staying here!
