Guest Reviews
- Coaching (9/5): We komen zeker terug! - De prijs Frisse lucht, er kon niet echt een raam open
- Stanislav (6/5): -
- Agata (3/5): - lokalizacja, czysta pościel, możliwość pozostawienia bagażu wielkość pokoju, pokój z łazienka bez toalety, niemiła obsługa, brak czajnika nawet ogólnego, duża ilość bardzo stromych schodów bez windy, głośno, ciężkie drzwi, zostawione bagaże kompletnie na widoku i z pełnym dostępem
- JANIO (8/5): Muito acolhedora e organizada. - De tudo na realidade. Estávamos preparados para alguns contratempos relativos a hospedagem por tratarem-se de imóveis antigos, mas fomos surpreendidos com um espaço muito charmoso, organizado, limpo e com uma equipe muito simpática e prestativa. Na realidade gostamos de tudo.
- Antonia (10/5): -
- viktor (10/5): - Staff very helpful, nice place good location very happy.. .
- M. (7/5): - Geen ontbijt, toilet op de gang en heel klein, badkamer glad
- Monika (7/5): - Doskonała lokalizacja, cysto Bardzo skromnie, na jedną noc ok, bardzo strome schody
- Elin (8/5): -
- Kaboom22 (8/5): - We could check in a little earlier than stated which was nice so we could drop our bag. Room were simple, clean and light all be it basic, but that was to be expected for the price. Location can't be beat, and it was a quiet street for a good nights rest. The toilets were in the hall which we knew, but they were so small! Not very comfortable for taller people.
- Sonja (9/5): Thank you for a welcome and warm stay. - The host/owners were great, answering questions about the area and providing directions to various venues. Steep stairs
- Glòria (9/5): Excel.ent, agradable i comfortable. -
- Nelleke (7/5): -
- Francisco (9/5): - El alojamiento esta ubicado en un sector muy tranquilo, con buena conectividad y buen tamaño de la habitación. El personal de recepción fue muy amable y nos dió tips para llegar al aeropuerto. Los precios en Amsterdam son excesivos. Este alojamiento es de los mas accesibles, pero sigue siendo caro.
- Maicon (8/5): - O quarto e quente e confortavel O cartão da porta destrava qualquer porta e as paredes sao muitos fina
- Nicolas (9/5): - The location and the staff were good!
- laurette/ Caroline (7/5): Bon séjour et bon accueil . Très bon emplacement - L emplacement est super et calme Objet laissés sous les lits / chauffage non réglable et fenêtre difficile à ouvrir
- Eléa (6/5): - L’emplacement de l’hôtel est très bien et le personnel est très sympathique La propreté des chambres est à revoir, la douche est compliquée à faire fonctionner et il y a très peu de puissance.
- Vanda (10/5): -
- Wanderdutch (5/5): Het lag absoluut niet aan het personeel en de locatie! - Schat van een manager, gastvrijheid ten top, Amsterdamse nuchterheid en liefde voor de zaak en de klanten. Locatie was ook nog top. Doel was een bezoekje Artis met de zoon en dat lag op twee keer koprollen van het hotel. De kamer. Alles. Bizar krap, vies balkon, douche die naar riool stonk en ongelofelijk krappe toilet op de gang. Ik kon met mijn 1.90 meter niet zitten, moest scheef hurken. In een easyJet-vliegtuig heb je overigens ook nog meer ruimte dan de bedden in dit hotel je bieden.
- Zhanel (3/5): Ощущение, что находишься в палате. На первом этаже странный запах. Никакого соотношения цены-качество, только если за ло - Из плюсов только расположение. Все.
- Maria Pia (8/5): - Moltissimo la posizione Le scale per accedere alle stanze poco praticabili
- Joakim (6/5): -
- OLESSYA (7/5): - Отель небольшой, милый. В стиле Амстердама. Рядом прекрасный парк (не бесплатный). Остановка трамвая, на котором можно доехать до центра. В принципе, все в шаговой доступности, но идти долго. Это скорее всего хостел, хотя написано отель. Раковина около изголовья кровати это не очень. Туалет в общем коридоре, хотя разумне не поставить в номере в комнатке, который назвали душ. Но он холодный и не удобный. Муж на своей стороне кровати нашел волосы. Подушки были а каких-то пятнах. Пошла на ресепшн, нам заменили. Но как так можно было оставить кровать?
- Pardo Malagon (9/5): - La ubicación Baño compartido
- Bui Hoang Khanh (10/5): -

- Leta (8/5): -
- Maria Aparecida (9/5): Hotel Hortus perfeito para uma estadia curta. Funcionários excelentes! - Localização, quarto e a facilidade de ter duchas dentro do quarto. As escadas, parecem perigosas quando você tem uma criança no braço.
- Roelien (9/5): - Personeel vond ik erg vriendelijk en aangenaam. Hartelijk ontvangen.
Beneden ook van alles aanwezig in de gemeenschappelijke ruimte.
Kamer mooi ruim.
Ook een mooie locatie naast de Botanische Hortis. Aanrader! Het bed vond ik persoonlijk wat minder.

- Júlia (10/5): -
- Gemma (6/5): Malgrat els inconvenients, agradable - La situació prop de tranvies i la tranquil.litat del barri. Les habitacions són molt bàsiques, algunes molt petites i el WC és comunitari a la planta i per tant fora de l’habitació. Les dimensiona del WC són ridícules. Una persona una mica corpulenta no hi cap. Les escales són molt empinades, però l’hotel ho avisa.

Bike rental Mattress
- Mario (10/5): It was the second time I’ve stayed at Hotel Hortus, and personally I confirm every single word of the first review, ever - It was the second time I’ve stayed at Hotel Hortus, and personally I confirm every single word of the first review, everything was perfect.
I apologize if I bother with the Neapolitan Rap/Trap music, (I tried with other sounds but is not the same) the flow makes the blood run faster and keeps the muscles constantly active at all times… I’m addicted to sport. (Really sorry about that)
P.S. I was supposed to work this weekend, but because of this place, I allowed myself two days of “Niksen”. It was the second time I’ve stayed at Hotel Hortus, and personally I confirm every single word of the first review, everything was perfect.

- Elly (4/5): Prijs/kwaliteit zeer onder de maaat. - Locatie Bedden, dekbedden, slecht onderhoud, geen faciliteiten koffie/thee, saai ingericht.
Hele stijle trappen, wc op de gang
- Patricia y Mario (9/5): Vale la pena - Localización
Habitación muy cómoda
Impecable Escaleras al 2do piso

- Erika (8/5): Agradable bien ubicado y personal amable - La amabilidad del personal y la ubicación Baño compartido
- Inerio (5/5): - La posizione, la gentilezza delle persone alla reception, ci hanno permesso di lasciare i bagagli oltre gli orari di check-in, chek-out Scala molto ripida per accedere all'ultimo piano dove si trovava la nostra stanza. Stanza molto piccola, non possibile stare dritti in piedi, doccia in comune molto spartana
- Josep Maria (8/5): -
- Constanza María (5/5): Aceptable - La amabilidad de los recepcionistas La cama tenía muchas manchas de chinches (aplastamos a uno) y quedamos picados
- Bohdan (7/5): -
- Giovana (8/5): - O hotel possui uma ótima recepção, com possibilidade de guardar as malas, caso chegue na acomodação antes do quarto ficar pronto, só tem muitas escadas, como a maioria das acomodações na Europa, mas foi tudo muito bom, o banheiro é compartilhado com 2 quartos, então é bem tranquilo. E tem chuveiro no quarto, poderiam colocar o box.
- Tuba (10/5): -
- Ninette (7/5): Good - Very clean. Great location. Walls are extremely thin. You can hear everything. My neighbors were super noisy the first night so I slept very badly. Then they left on the second night, so I slept well.
- Mariam (7/5): Clean room good for short stays. - Location is good, close to central station.
The bed was comfortable and the linens were clean. The room had a small sink, which was convenient as it meant you didn’t have to use a shared bathroom The room lighting is very dim and needs improvement. The staircase steps are very narrow, making it difficult to walk comfortably and potentially unsafe for some guests. Additionally, housekeeping entered the room one hour before check-in without knocking.
- florence (10/5): Idéal pour profiter d’Amsterdam - Chambre confortable et emplacement parfait !
Personnel très sympathique
- Strano (10/5): Week end pasquale - Tutto .
- Inga (7/5): -
- Maryna Clark (7/5): -
- Marja (6/5): - Ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta, siisti hotelli ja huone . Sijainti hyvä ja rauhallinen ympäristö. Tiesin jo varatessa että wc on käytävällä, se oli kuitenkin lähellä ja siisti.
- sonia (9/5): Le personnel et l accueil très agréable - Pas très loin du centre et de la gare centrale on peut très bien se rejoindre la gare à pied Les lit trop mou et la température de la douche c trop chaud ou froid mes pour 2 nuit faut pas trop se plaindre
- D (8/5): -
- Merve (7/5): Temiz ve konumu ortalama - Tesis çok temizdi ortak tuvaletler gayet temizdi ilk defa ortak tuvaletli otelde kalmamıza rağmen hiç rahatsız olmadık. Öncelikle odada yatak yanlarında priz yoktu, odada iki tane biri giriş kapısının yanında ve çok yüksekteydi. Odada su dahi yoktu. Isıtıcı yoktu kahve vs zaten yoktu. Terlik şampuan vs hiç biri yok. Bunlar dışında otel sessiz ve temizdi. Bence 1 günlük konaklamalarda kullanılabilir. Merdivenler çok dik ve dar büyük boy valizi çıkarabilene helal olsun derim.
- Craig (1/5): - Nothing to be honest It's a Youth Hostel charging hotel prices
- ilouane (7/5): - Très bon emplacement bien desservi par différentes lignes de tram. Chambre assez petite avec une forte odeur de remonté dans la douche.
- Ilker (1/5): -
- Virginia (7/5): -
- Muqsit (7/5): -
- Yamila (9/5): - Excelente hotel muy cerca del centro, a metros del metro y el tranvía. El personal muy amable y atento. Las instalaciones impecables y la habitación cómoda y espaciosa. Tuvimos una hermosa estadía
- Can (7/5): -
- Marina (8/5): - Хорошее расположение. Спальный район. Рядом милый парк и ботанический сад. До центра и жд вокзала.- 20 мин.пешком. От жд идет прямой трамвай 14.На ресепшен работают милейшие люди. На 1 этаже есть общий холодильник и микроволновка. Постельное и полотенца чистые и свежие. Ну про лестницы все на сайте написано. Но. В номере нет ни одного крючка. Ни мокрый плащ повесить,ни полотенце для умывания ,ни полотенце,мокрое после душа.. Очень неудобно. Высоченные потолки и крохотная лампочка. Полумрак. У кроаати нет личного светильника.. И отдельная печаль- нет чайника. Да,на ресепшен дают горячую воду в стакане,но !! Для этого надо сначала спуститься со второго этажа,а потом залезть по крутой лестнице с 2 кружками кипятка в руках. Ни мыла,ни шампуня в душе. В 2х местном номере- 2 сдвинутые кровати.
- Rami (7/5): It was Amsterdam baby ! - The lady at the reception was overwhelmingly friendly (we didn't hate you btw, those were stairs to valhalla 😂) May not be quiet sometimes.
- Joeri (8/5): -
- Diego (7/5): Opción asequible sin grandes comodidades. - El precio está bien para los precios de Ámsterdam. La ubicación no es la más céntrica, pero se puede llegar a la estación central en transporte público con línea directa, o en 30 minutos a pie. Hay una máquina expendedora por si tienes hambre. Escaleras muy inclinadas y estrechas, no es para gente mayor. Las camas eran un poco incómodas, los colchones se hunden demasiado. No ofrecen opción de desayuno.
- Richard (10/5): Staff was great made our stay perfect. - Staff, the location and comfortable The dramatic reviews people make about the property
- Nina (8/5): -
- Jinmo (8/5): -
- Amelia (9/5): -
- Maarten (6/5): - Bijzonder vriendelijke hotelier, schone kamer, goede douche Erg smalle bedden en wat gehorig
- arellano (9/5): -
- Michelle (3/5): - L'emplacement Mauvais rapport qualité-prix. Lit pas confortable, on entend les voisins sortir et rentrer, odeur forte de produit "cheap" de nettoyage
- Ville (8/5): -
- andrea (10/5): -
- Karin (8/5): - zentrale Lage, unkomplizierte Abwicklung, heißes Wasser beim Duschen, Aufstieg über "abenteuerliche" Treppe., genügend Haken für Jacken. Achtung: rutschige Bodenfliesen im Badezimmer; Klo außerhalb des Zimmer, aber für eine Nacht ok. Großer, harter Polster nicht so bequem. Kein Nachtkästchen für Ablage.
- Alpay (10/5): -
- Jitka (9/5): - Byli jsme nadšeni!!! Krásné, čisté prostředí ve skvělé lokalitě přímo s výhledem do parku. Naprosto optimální poměr cena a kvalita. Milý personál, vše v pořádku. Pozor na opravdu prudké schody.
- Yelena (8/5): Повесьте хоть пару крючков и положите мыло. - Отель в тихом месте. Номера чистые. Очень удобные кровати. Персонал очень приветливый. Отдельная благодарность администратору Эмме, которая была с нами очень добра и помогала в одной сложной ситуации! Отелю очень повезло с сотрудником! Номера полупустые, нет мыла, даже полотенца повесить некуда. Слышимость через стенку такая, что слышно даже как соседи ходят.
- Odile (5/5): - Très bel emplacement dans amsterdam. Lieu très propre. Très cher pour une micro chambre où on entend les portes claquées, les coups dans les murs, la tuyauterie des douches voisines, les bruits de toilettes collectives, pas d'endroit pour poser sa valise. Autant prendre un dortoir collectif.
- Céline (8/5): - Nous avons apprécié l'emplacement proche du centre ville dans un quartier résidentiel calme Nous n'avons pas apprécié la douche du 3ème étage car la température est difficile à régler
