A wonderful surprise, this boutique hotel was a great place to stay while visiting Amsterdam. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The rooms cozy and comfortable after a day on the town. It was quiet, good for a nap while recovering from jet lag. The location is great, close to interesting streets of restaurants, the main museums and the trams for visiting the rest of Amsterdam.
Great location. Clean and well maintained. My only recommendation is fans in the rooms would be nice to help move the air around at night because you can’t keep the windows open due to people walking down the street talking all night.
Wonderful welcoming staff including their laid back gray cat Basil. Beware of stairs to enter the building but there is a small lift to get up to rooms. Rooms are small, no AC. Windows do open for a nice breeze. Breakfast was very good. I especially enjoyed the croissants. Lovely area.
Staff was very friendly and helpful, giving restaurant suggestions and tips about public transportation. Room (single) was small, but clean and comfortable.
Wonderful, friendly staff! Great location - close to a great park, excellent breakfast nearby for pancakes, near public transportation, close to museums, short walk to the canal, etc. The rooms were small and not modern at all, and our shower left quite a wet spot on the bathroom floor. However, we did not mind this, rather I mention this to travelers seeking modern amenities. There was a cat that lived in the lobby (I think his name was "Percy"). We loved that there was a house cat in this hotel. Would stay here again because the staff was amazing and there's a cat!
Very helpful staff at the Owl Hotel as we visited Amsterdam the first time. Lobby wait nice and quiet with a friendly hotel cat. Location was ideal
For our travels and would definitely recommend a stay here!
Convenient location. Hotel is visibly on the older side, elevator was broken on the last night of our stay. However, big thanks to front desk for helping us with our luggage. Not sure how to feel about the whole dropping off room key system. They require you to leave and then ask for your room key back at the reception when leaving/returning to the hotel.
The Owl Hotel is a hidden gem! The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is within in walking distance to many locations and transportation. The room was neat and clean. It was safe, quiet and peaceful, a great place to relax in after a busy day of sight seeing!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was great, and the staff particularly helpful. I am very thankful for the stay.
Small, neat rooms, with private bathrooms. Some have a shower only due to size. The breakfast room is lovely with a patio and garden accessible in good weather. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The Owl is in the heart of the museum district and few minutes walk to Vondel Park, well worth walking about. My second stay there and I’d stay again!
Lovely little hotel, perfectly positioned for both sightseeing and relaxing in Amsterdam.
The continental breakfast choice was really good and the staff were really welcoming, kind and helpful.
The only small negative was the bathroom. Tiny, short bath you couldn't really use (i love a bath), with a shower over and shower curtain that stuck to you. Could benefit from replacing with a large shower cubical for better comfort and experience.
That said, i would definitely return to this hotel the next time i visit Amsterdam again.
Thank you to everyone for making our visit fabulous!
Friendly and very helpful staff, good breakfast with a variety of options, basic but clean and comfortable room, close to everything but still very quiet. Lovely patio too!
