Nice hotel. Only a star off since a LOT echoed from other rooms if people were loud.
I also felt really bad for the bar staff upstairs. I don’t know what kind of management they’re suffering under but the system they’re forced to use is insufficient and ridiculous. It took me ages to pay a drink bill because of how their system worked. It was NOT an issue of their servers and bartenders. If anything I’m amazed they didn’t quit.
This is a great hotel with a professional staff. If I had a question they were quick to help. I wanted to walk the stairs instead of elevator they showed me where that was and walked me over to the area. You check in everywhere with your room card so its super safe and secure. The breakfast was amazing with great views. The roof top sauna was an experience I wont soon forget. The room as quiet the bed was comfortable. The price made sense. This is a great stay for solo, business, couples or small groups. They will take great care of you and have everything you need in house, but a lot to walk to nearby. Metro was 4min walk and you can take to Centraal Station and then off you go throughout the city or the Netherlands at large. This will be my go-to accommodation when I stay in Amsterdam. Thank you for everything!
Loved our weekend at Volkshotel.
Room was spacious and clean.
Staff were extra helpful, food in the restaurant and bar/cafe downstairs was great.
Sauna and hot tubs in the roof were excellent.
Yoga on Saturday morning was superb.
Really close to a metro station- 10 mins to the city centre, supermarket just up the road.
We would absolutely stay here again.
Incredible stay at Volkshotel! Would stay there again and would recommend it to any friends and family. Minutes walk to the metro station, grocery store just a block or 2 away. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and have all the necessities.
Highly recommend. Sort of a “hostel feel” but really great vibes!

No room phones or sugar and cream for coffee and tea but the upgrade to a studio was nice. Security is tight. Took 4 card taps to get to my room. Least expensive rate I could find for a Saturday night in Amsterdam for my Sunday flight home.
Volkshotel:
• The Volkshotel was the perfect place to stay during our first ever trip to Amsterdam. The hotel is eclectic, artsy, and full of character. The reception staff was welcoming and helpful. The rooms are small, but that is right in the info so no surprises there! Beds and shower were good! We enjoyed the lounge and workspace areas as well as the rooftop tubs and restaurant. Lots to enjoy right at the hotel but also very quick and easy to get to the metro and get anywhere. The area itself had some nice cafes, a supermarket and felt nice and safe.
Definitely far from the main action but we found that kind of refreshing. And the action is just a quick walk/metro/tram away.
Oh, and we were there through a weekend but did not have trouble with noise from the club, etc.
The vibe was great at this hotel! Friendly helpful staff despite our late arrival, convenient to public transportation, everything you need within the building on a rainy day. Directions from the train station were spot on - it was easy to get here. Room was clean and comfortable, there was coffee and tea for free, beds were comfortable, we had a balcony which was fun. Only slight problem was A/C was slow and fairly ineffective but overall, a great place to stay at a good price in Amsterdam
Cute funky place. Everything is great except I didn’t like the room. It’s not cozy and not well lit at night but if you only back in your room to sleep, it’s fine. I didn’t find it welcoming so I avoided it until it was bed time :)
I loved this hotel and will be coming back. Renting a bike from them is a must to get around the city, there's no point in getting a car. The hot tubs and sauna on the roof are so relaxing after a long day out. And if you're sore they have a fantastic massage therapist who really knows how to find and work out those problem areas. She is another must at the end of a long day.
Volks hotel was an amazing stay for the fact that I felt that I never needed to leave. It has a cafe downstairs, a rooftop bar upstairs, a gym, and a sauna. The room was kind of small and quaint, but it was comfortable and had all the necessities. It was relatively close to the city center and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely stay here again.
