Vondelpark House B&B0

The location of the B&B was a lovely, quiet residential area near the entrance to Vondel Park which is beautiful. There are many cafes and restaurants very nearby. The walk through the Park provided welcome calm before entering the lively centre of Amsterdam. The rooms and bathrooms were very spacious, spotlessly clean, tastfully decorated. Our host was very hospitable and provided us with lots of useful tips for our trip. We greatly enjoyed our sightseeing days around the Centre but one thing noone told us and which shocked us was how super careful you have to be when navigating the streets on foot. When crossing the road there are bikes, scooters, cars and trams coming from all directions at top speed so your spidy-senses have to be on full alert at all times - we nearly got wiped out a few times!! Otherwise we would highly recommend visiting Amsterdam for a short city break (with some of the attractions needing prebooking online).

Two very small things which we already knew about before our trip and were clearly stated in the Booking.com description:- 1. The very steep steps in order to get to your rooms were no surprise but a challenge nonetheless. 2. It is described as a Bed & Breakfast but no breakfast is provided although the host did say the reason for this is there wasn't a demand for it. We were very happy with the kitchen area which did provide an amazing choice of coffee, tea and hot chocolate. And she gave us a list of recommended cafes and restaurants in the area that provided good breakfast etc.

Spotlessly clean and cozy with a very nice local decoration. Everything in the house was chosen with love and good taste! It is perfectly organised, there you will find everything you need for a comfortable stay, from slippers and bathrobes to every utility you can think of in the kitchen, even a small pharmacy with all the essentials. Gerard (Petra’s husband), was very helpful and hospitable. We even had a gift from Petra on our departure! The location was perfect to visit the city, 3 minutes walk to the tram stop. Many good restaurants and shops in the area. Highly recommend!!

Everything was excellent!

I liked the room very much, very clean and nicely decorated, although I missed a tv since we used to come home pretty early in the evening. The proximity to the park was perfect for us, to get away from the bustling street life for a while and just kick back in the park. Very smooth transfer to/from airport with train and tram. Very friendly hosts.

A long, strait, semi-boring street that leads to the centre. But, you can always take the way through the park instead if you like.

This is probably the cleanest B&B I've ever stayed in. Rooms are bright and tastly decorated given the impression of much space. The location is really good: not in the middle of touristic hustle bustle, but in a very nice neighbourhood (and importantly silent during the nights) with lots of local flavour but close enough to all the main attractions. The hosts (Petra and Gerry) are very friendly but without being intrusive.

The only issue is that even if it's advertised as an B&B, they don't offer you breakfast. Nevertheless, the kitchen is fully equipped and I had complete access to it. Downstairs there are plenty of good restaurants.

Immaculate! Couldn’t fault the b and b at all. The host was friendly and helpful. She had thought of everything. It was all SO clean. We could really see the thought that was put into it, down to the small details, whether it was the matching colours or the treats left in the room. The location is perfect, neighbouring Vondel park, while only being a lovely 30 minute walk through the park to the city centre.

That we couldn’t stay longer!

Lovely, cosy place to stay with attention to detail, high standard, equipped with everything you need and more. Very good location. Highly recommended.

Bathroom and toilet away from bedroom came as surprise (we stayed in room 2; room 1 has on suite bathroom). We have to walk through shared corridor to use them. 2 single beds conjunct together instead of double bed not ideal for a couple.

Clean, quiet, comfortable and beautiful... all you need for an excellent stay. The rooms are at the second floor (steep staircase) and newly refurbished. Vondelpark is just behind the corner and the center is at walk distance. Large choice of bar and restaurant in the neighborhood. Petra is very kind and helpful providing all information needed for a comfortable stay.

Vondellpark House is a lovely B&B. It is spotlessly clean, comfortable and roomy. While there is no breakfast provided Petra ensures there is always a plentiful supply of tea, coffee and waffles and there are places nearby to either eat out or bring some fresh croissants back to enjoy. It is a few minutes walk from the tram stop in and out of the city, yet peacefully quiet.

The host invested a lot of time, energy and creativity in thinking of every single detail in the house and the room. The beauty of the place and the host's warm's and welcoming nature made us feel just like at home. We would definitely repeat because places like this are hard to come by.

Can't think of anything negative.

Fabulous accommodation near the Vondel Park a quiet area and perfect for walks around the park. Close to good bars , restaurants and cafes. Close to bus route into town. Beautifully decorated rooms, clean and light, comfy beds and well equipped kitchen area. Gerrard who greeted us at the accommodation was friendly and informative.
