Found this place when planning our visit to the Netherlands. Was looking for a place out from the center of Amsterdam, yet close enough to get there by public transportation. While researching online I followed the public rail out from Amsterdam Station in several directions and found this absolute gem close to Amstel Station. Cannot say enough good about De Vergulden Eenhoorn. Deene and his staff were over the top in friendliness and hospitality. Everything far exceeded our expectations. We don't care for the usual hotel experience, this place rocked it for us. Also, the food and drink were absolutely wonderful. The garden setting of the whole place transports you away from the sights and sounds of the city and make you feel like you are in a serene oasis.

Leaving!!!!

The host was lovely and attentive, the property was also lovely, perfect location, station very close by and only a few stops to Central :) We cannot wait to come back in the Summer, beautiful restaurant garden outside the property! 1 suggestion my friends and I would like to put forward, perhaps a sink area in the little kitchen area rather than the tongs and hair dryer that is located in there, if you are there for a couple of days or more having to take dirty plates and cutlery to the bathroom is not really ideal! The empty cupboard space I am sure pipes can be fitted! Just our opinion of course :) however this did not affect our stay here :0)

There was a sewage smell coming from the bathroom after a while when the heater was switched on, however closing the door blocked the scent from coming out! Again, would not stop us from staying here again.

Nice, peaceful location. On an old farm, so it’s a unique place in Amsterdam and the rooms have been done up well. Big bathroom and can sleep 4 adults. Good value for the location and size of rooms. Staff were friendly. Flexible check-out time. Rooms are quiet with good sound-proofing.

Not a hotel, just a set of rooms really. No cleaning of rooms during stay, and no reception area, but you can message the manager. Room hadn’t been cleaned thoroughly - there were quite a lot of old coffee cups in a cupboard and previous guest’s loose cigarettes in bedside drawer, so clearly the cleaners don’t do a thorough job. Towels and bedding were clean but were all stained in some way, should be replaced.

Quirky accommodation in a nice part of Amsterdam, near to Amstel station to get into the centre (*), with a very friendly host. Also as the accommodation is separate from the restaurant was quiet. * as a tip for anyone travelling as a family like we were you can get a €17.50 family day ticket for the metro/trans/buses if you download the app, which wasn’t obvious until we asked in the station.

Bathroom in basement and quite low ceilings.

Very quiet, you’d never know that people are in the on site restaurant and bar. Super comfortable bed. A short easy train trip to central Amsterdam and all the attractions. Would definitely recommend this stay to others who would like to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Super accommodating staff. Really happy with our choice.

There is nothing to complain about.

Deene is a superb and responsive host. Comfy beds and the suite is sizeable for a family of 4. Slightly further out from city centre but easy to commute with metro station nearby. Would have been great if the towels are changed and rubbish emptied daily but minor points. Just to note it is not a hotel with no reception desk at site. But the host is easily contactable if there is any issue. Would stay here again if we visit the city in future.

The Authentic Farmhouse is located in a quiet area between canals and within walking distance to the train/tram station. We were in Amsterdam during a heatwave so the A/C was greatly appreciated even if the power went out on the first day due to overload of the city infrastructure. Dane did a great job of letting us know this would happen and was easily reached by text during our visit. This is a great place to stay!

The first night we were there someone from another room was trying to connect their Spotify account and our tv turned on 2x's at full blast in the middle of the night. :) It may have been due to the staff party that was happening that night. Also, we returned one evening to find our hotel door propped open and the room had not been cleaned. I believe this was due to housekeeping issues.

bed comfy. good water pressure in shower. great to have a shower separate from WC. handy to tram station. restaurant extraordinary.

no one on property to help. ran out of toilet paper. low beams hard for tall people in loft. never did get all the lights to work. tv came on all by itself in the middle of the night

Excellent location, easy access to the centre. Residential area, nice bars and restauranrs in the neibourhood. Smart and pretty building.

No staff on the premises, no place to leave the bags on the last day.

This was an excellent choice for our visit to Amsterdam. The room was well designed and roomy with comfortable beds and excellent AC. The location is unique and peaceful.

A light breakfast prior to the restaurant opening at Qp10 would be ideal. also rental bikes would be perfect!
