Location. Coffee. Nearby restaurants. The host. Details. Cleanliness.

I would have liked to know that the room did not lock from the inside - as two female travelers this can be a bit nerve wracking.

Christian was a lovely host. The location was great - not very busy and walkable to most places in the city.

Steep narrow stairs - difficult access. Bed a bit soft for me.

Spotless clean, good location, friendly and helpful host. Good restaurants very close by.

The bathroom floor seems always wet and a better mat to stand on would be an improvement.

Fantastic little stop with a very helpful host

There was no AC so had to have windows open and was noisy

We were actually upgraded to an apartment which was really nice and a big thanks to Christian for all his help and support much approeciated

No , soap or shampoo or conditioner We had to go buy our own. Two containers in the shower were body lotion and body wash.

Great location. Close to food. Clean and great facilities

Not sure if in the description but it should be added if not. The stairs are difficult to traverse with large suitcases, pretty much a spiral staircase.

Great location, great Italian restaurant across the street.

Everything that was promised! Christian was great to deal with - unobtrusive but there to help if needed. And the property was great! Highly recommended!

Nothing. It was great! 3rd floor, so some stairs, but they were manageable, and Christian helped with the bags. It was not clear how to get the washer/dryer to just run a dry cycle, (my dutch is non-existent) but it was great to have to do some luandry.

Full Disclosure - I am not rating the Canal House Inn. The owner/manager(?) offered me a free upgrade to another property - an apartment overlooking a canal, close to the city center. It was amazing, and if you get a similar offer, I suggest you take it! Also, Christian - who was my contact (I think the manager, not the owner) was super responsive.

nothing

The Inn was comfortable, the location was close to everything we needed and the owner was friendly, helpful and always available.

Nothing really. A second bedside table would help though.

This is in just a lovely part of town, off the tourist trail, a long way from those things that, unfortunately, make Amsterdam a haven for groups of slightly debauched looking young men, yet only a couple of bus stops (or a 20 minute walk - the longer more picturesque way) from Central Station and indeed a nice walk into the centre by quiet roads, or a 14 tram from five minutes away. The house is modern, but in the manner of a typical small canal house, on what is still a working canal with lifting bridges. It has a lot of lovely bars and restaurants nearby and it's great not having to go into town in the evening with all its awfulness. We were concerned the room might be noisy, but with the window open on a Friday and a Saturday night there was almost no traffic noise and only the odd conversation from young people wending their way home. The room was very comfortable and clean; we were on the first floor with a big window looking over the canal. It really is a charming place. There was a good coffee maker, mineral water and even a half bottle of wine provided gratis.

The extractor fan in the bathroom was turned off.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff who also kindly offered to help carry our bags upstairs. Beautiful room with a great view of the canal. Excellent location close to shops, restaurants and metro. Very clean and neat.

Steep stairs to climb

It was spotless and had a great view. Spacious enough for me on my own. Christian the host

Stayed in September 2023

Beautiful canal view. Restaurants nearby. Close to train station and lovely walk to museums. Christian was incredibly helpful with directions and suggestions.

Stayed in September 2023

Only minor thing was the bathroom was small but very clean and functional.

Location was great, very quiet street but walking distance to restaurants, museums, train station and many other things.

Stayed in September 2023

Perfect location, wonderful host, and fully equipped with everything a traveller may need. Although there were some road closures at the time of my visit and the bridge over the canal was being replaced, this spot was the perfect place to stay. Without knowing, I picked a spot very close to where my friends live, and following the host's recommendations, I was able to visit a bunch of really good spots for breakfast and lunch. I'd go with an option like this over a random hotel any time!

I would have liked a bed which could be used from both sides

Christian was the host par excellence. Even though he was leaving on holidays the day after our arrival, he made a point of spending an hour with us describing the neighbourhood and giving us tips on « best of » of all kinds. For a cherry on the sundae, he even called us from the airport the next morning just to check if everything was alright. His colleague, partner and replacement, Carlos was equally kind, effective and serviable.

Nothing .

We actually stayed in an apartment near as this property was fully occupied. But Christian was absolutely amazing with sorting everything out . I can’t recommend staying with any of his places enough. Perfect.
