The reception staff on the first day were totally unwelcoming and unhelpful . However the staff for the rest of our stay were absolutely wonderful, so helpful and friendly.

The rooms are quite small and some of them look across into other rooms, so one has to keep the curtains closed.

Stunning hotel. The lobby is beautiful, with drinks and cookies available all day. Staff is very pleasant and helpful, and the location is superb. Our room was incredibly comfortable, with spotless facilities and a coffee machine. We liked the way the bathroom was a separate room from the shower and further from the bed. The lighting in the room is great. The gym is pretty small but functional.

the staff are so professional but friendly. the extra touches in the lobby area, free tea and coffee, patisseries and sweets. fresh water in the room fridge every day. room cleaned every day

stayed here eight years ago and the only downside now is the coffee machine in the lobby has paper cups-for such a top class hotel would expect a proper cup.

Warm welcoming and one of the best hotels in town. We opted for a Deluxe room and cannot complain about anything. You can also relax and enjoy refreshments offered by the hotel in the lobby area. Breakfast is also exceptional. I highly recommend this hotel because it's worth every cent!

Breakfast quality is good though the variaties are limited. Very good and polite staff and really helpful to all clients although most of the time they are very busy. Location is absolutely very good . Building is beatifull and historical. Wifi connection moderate. Free tea or coffee and cookies are excellent.

Toilet was very small and disappointing though bath room was quite enjoyable and large.

This is one of the most beautiful hotels we have stayed in - this was my third stay and my sister’s first and we were both blown away by the gorgeous interior design, happy and friendly staff and attention to detail. The hotel is clearly run by people who are passionate about what they do and go the extra mile to give their guests a memorable stay. From the minute we arrived to such a lovely welcome (much needed after a horrendous journey) including a welcome gift for my sister’s birthday and being advised that breakfast would be free as I was a returning guest, to the minute we left we were delighted with every aspect of our stay. The breakfast was amazing, we couldn’t have asked for more. The free drinks, cakes and biscuits available throughout the day in the stunning lounge area are a welcome touch. Our room was beautiful too - spotlessly clean with everything we needed including robes and slippers, coffee machine, fresh chilled bottles of water each day and a gorgeous room spray. The bathroom was large with a separate powerful shower and a jacuzzi bath. The central areas are stunning and the hotel’s cats are delightful! It is a pricey hotel but well worth it. We will be back!

Having to leave!

The property was beautifully decorated..so unique and creative. The location was perfect..close to so many attractions and at most a 20-25 minute walk to everything we wanted to see. Free coffee, tea, hot chocolate and baked goods all hours in addition to rain ponchos, umbrellas and chocolate. Rooms were comfortable, clean and again, beautifully decorated. The bar was convenient and when ordering a drink, you were served a selection of yummy snacks. Comforting and pleasant hotel in every way!

I didn’t love having to turn the key in when leaving and pick it up coming back in, but it wasn’t anything that would prevent me from staying again.

Loved the location, vibe and overall experience; everywhere you look, there is something to be amazed by. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The breakfast spread was also just great; and they have little treats out at all other times. Just a fabulous stay!

Unfortunately we had a noisy night time visitor that woke us up: a mouse found its way into a sealed(!) bag of crisps, inside a backpack that was left on the floor.

The decor is amazing and most employees offer service with a smile. We've made avid use of the complementary drink station. We've absolutely fallen in love with the Estherea brand and it seems likely that Hotel Estherea will become our home base for future trips to Amsterdam.

We booked a double, but were unfortunately put in what on the website is classified as a single, with a rather small bed. The staff was understanding about our complaint and made an effort to make our stay a little extra enjoyable. The room did however come with a wonderful view over the canal!

A good hotel in a very good location within the canal region of Amsterdam. Right on the "Nine Streets" and close to the flower market, main shopping areas, canals, it enables easy walking to a large part of what Amsterdam has to offer, and decent access to things further afield, whether by walking a bit further or by tram, metro or taxi. 20 minutes walk North to the red light district or 30 minutes walk South to the museums, for example. The hotel itself was reasonable value for a city like Amsterdam - not too cheap and not as expensive as some. Room size was okay of not quite what I expected (our separate toilet, while being good for not being in the main bathroom, was tiny - more like a plane or train loo than a hotel!). The bar was good, with a decent range of starter type foods, a decent range of drinks and reasonable prices for wines and beers. Breakfast was pretty good, though as ever in these hotels, the hot was never hot enough! At 20 euros we at first felt it was a bit expensive, but after eating in the cafes (which don't open until 9am in Amsterdam!) it was actually pretty reasonable bearing gin mind the selection. You have to book for breakfast the day before, every day, and it is served from 7 until (i think) 10) The front desk staff were all fantastic, helpful, attentive and engaging. All round, good, and i would recommend a stay here.

Deluxe room seemed smaller than I expected, toilet was ridiculously small. Unless i missed it there was no restaurant other than the bar food and breakfast, but the location helped in this regard with several great places very close by - Gollem bar for beers, The 5 Flies and Casa di David for restaurants, as well as multiple others behind and along the Singel road/canal area.
