Linden Hotel

Location, location, location! Staying at the Linden comes with the friendliest and cutest warning that the hotel is tiny… but it makes up in more ways than just its perfect location in the middle of Amsterdam’s old Jordaan. There’s no breakfast facility but they offer discount at the cafe right next door. However they managed to squeeze in public space area where people can sit, wait and do some digital nomad-ing, with free supply of coffees, access to sweet jars and board games for a rainy day. If you’re in time you can also catch some of the fresh pastry they offer at random times of the day. The hotel staff were so kind and most helpful. As for the room: remember the heart of Amsterdam is famous for its narrow houses and steep staircases. The fact they turned this old corner house into a hotel is a miracle in itself, so just brace yourself and enjoy the smallness of it all. There’s a kettle in the room and sealed empty bottles of water which is meant for you to fill up with tap water as that’s indeed safe to drink in Amsterdam. The only downside of our standard room (18) is the weird layout of the bathroom which needed not to be awkward. Just as well we are not built big or our legs wouldn’t have fitted sitting on the toilet facing the glass shower enclosure. On the way out, we were given a ‘Thank You’ goodie bag. Lots of brownie points for this hotel!

I had booked another hotel and changed to linden just 3 days before my arrival . What a great decision! Such a cute hotel in a nice quiet safe neighbourhood. Away from the noise and crowded tourist areas . I booked a superior double . It was a nice large room with many windows and lots of natural light . They had a safe to keep valuables, a kettle hairdryer and an easy to use Split unit AC. The bathroom was small but very neat and clean . Some other reviews stated that the entire floor gets wet however mine has a glass door for the showers to prevent that . There is only one cafe across the hotel that you can have breakfast for a 10% off being a linden guest . Other eating places are a walk away and not very close by . Tram / bus stops are a short 3-5 min walk in either direction. Ask the hotel to guide you as to which is the correct stop because Google maps takes you to the one almost 2 stops away !! If you’re going to be out exploring all day and just sleep at night at the hotel . This is a great place at a good price

Lovely and very friendly hotel. Great location, reasonably close to the city centre (half an hour's picturesque walk from Central Station), very nice location by the canals. Clean and well furnished room, very good shower, quiet room with good air-con. Doesn't offer breakfast but there is a discount for residents at the next door cafe. Great place, and would definitely stay again.

Broken curtain rail and clock, no advertised candle, immovable shower, the worst kettle I’ve ever seen.. but we’d come back in an instant! A charming hotel: super-friendly, quiet, free daily pastries. Lovely, helpful staff, all very quaint and charming!

Beautifully quaint hotel. We had a corner room with a fantastic view. The room had everything we needed. We loved this hotel because it embodied the style of the city and was situated in a less busy area of the city. The staff was kind, helpful, and accommodating. Really enjoyed our stay here.
