Great apartment, Great area!

From the moment I booked the apartment until I left both Wyste and Ania answered questions very quickly and were so attentive. It is in what I consider the best part of Amsterdam to stay right along one of the beautiful canals. My son is living in the city so I will definitely be back!

Amsterdam Getaway

Great location, clean, and in a safe neighborhood. The photos in the description should give you a good feel for the property. The stairs are a bit steep, but we expected that. The beds are firm and comfortable. Highly recommended for both adults and families. If you want to be on the canals and within walking distance of the city center, this place is for you.

Wonderful Stay

The location could not be better to explore the city - with great frites up the road and a supermarket close by. Nine streets area is charming and authentic. The apartment is tastefully decorated and having two floors gave ample space and comfort. The canal and bridge views from the windows were a highlight. The host and property manager were excellent with communication and very accommodating. Highly recommend!

Gem of an apartment

We loved staying here! From the start, my communication with Wyste, and later Anne, was prompt, professional, helpful and friendly. The apartment is as described- perfect location, spotless, comfortably furnished, and with thoughtful touches & supplies throughout (from tea to hair conditioner). And such comfortable beds…

Exquisitely located, Sonnenberg provided a comfortable and authentic Amsterdam experience while serving as a marvelous home base for our many excursions throughout the city. Wytse was an amazing host, both in advance of our trip and upon arrival. If you are looking to experience Amsterdam at its finest, look no further.

Great Way to See Amsterdam

Great location on the canals and centrally located to the many activities in Amsterdam. We were able to walk everywhere and were never very far from the apartment. Easy check in and good comms with the host ahead of time. The lack of a kitchen was never an issue for us. Thanks!

Beautiful property in a great location

We had booked this for a trip in august 2020 which was canceled due to covid. Three years later we were so happy to be able to book the same property. The location is centrally located in the Nine Streets area and has a beautiful view overlooking the canal. We walked everywhere and the furthest was 20 minutes away to the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum. There are multiple choices for eating very close by. The host Wytse was very responsive.

Amazing canal home stay!

We loved our stay at this canal home! It was myself and my two adult sons and the home was super convenient to great restaurants/shopping districts and great views of the canal. It's in a historic area and you feel that you are part of the Amsterdam culture being there. The only downside for probably American travelers, is that the bathroom is on the upper level and with the rooflines, the shower area is very tight. Also, customary to canal homes, the stairs are super narrow and steep. That said, highly recommend and would stay there again no doubt!

Canal stay with family

The four of us had a fantastic stay! Our host was easy to contact and was very nice, helpful and informative. As with most European private accommodations, there are stairs. One set up to the unit and one more to the second floor where the bedrooms and full bathroom are located. Even though the stairs where narrow, they were easy to navigate and the hand rails were extremely sturdy. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The shower is a little short (I'm 5'10") but still very nice and the shower head is also a handheld. The host provides shampoo, conditioner and soap on a wall dispenser. All were good quality. The living room had a TV (we never used) and a great seating ledge where we could sit and watch the street and canal below. It is a great location with good restaurants and a metro stop close by and central to the main sights. We give this stay a big thumbs up!

Fabulous location and great management.

Pros: Fabulous location... couldn't be better, 2 bedrooms, clean and great management. Allowed us to have an early check in which we appreciated. Cons: Terrible shower... some of us couldn't even stand up due to the slanted ceiling and it was clogged so that was an issue. No sink in the kitchen (very strange) and no oven. We didn't cook so that wasn't an issue but the no sink part was an inconvenience. Lastly, very steep curved stairs... not easy to navigate for older people.

Amazing location and property

We spent several days at the property and loved every minute. The location is perfect. Central to restaurants and shopping and right on the canals. It was quiet and shady. The house is very cute and the host and property manager were very polite and helpful. It was nice to have a washing machine and the beds were comfortable. This is the perfect place for a family stay.

Perfect stay in Amsterdam

My husband and I traveled with our two daughters, ages 22 and 24. We arrived on an early international flight and the house manager was very accommodating, allowing us to drop our bags early. The location could not have been better, located on one of the most beautiful streets overlooking a canal. We all enjoyed drinking coffee in the family room together and taking in the view. The apartment was very clean, and had everything we needed. We would very much like to visit again soon!

Perfect!

Sonnenberg Canal View was absolutely perfect in every way! The house was clean, beautiful, comfortable, and in the perfect location. It was so easy to get a bite to eat, catch a tram or just wander the lovely streets to shop or just explore. Wytse quickly responded to any questions that I had before our trip. Ania was so helpful, warm and welcoming once we arrived. I would highly recommend this rental, and would not stay anywhere else in the future!

Perfect place for a long weekend in Amsterdam

Our family (2 adults and 2 kids- 8yr and 12yrs) visited Amsterdam for a long weekend and had the good fortune of staying at this beautiful house. Immediately off the canal and centrally located- this place was a perfect home base as we explored Amsterdam. The house was extremely comfortable and well equipped. Anna and Wytse were clear with all communication and provided some helpful information about airport transfers, local restaurants, shops, etc. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in the city.

Great VRBO. We had everything we needed. The rack of maps and guidebooks helped a lot. Lots of local construction work in early AM made sleep a bit difficult. Location was perfect, able to walk to all museums and attractions. Overall we loved staying there.

Charming Apartment in 400-year-old House

The Sonnenberg is a beautiful, centrally located home on Herengracht, arguably the most elegant street in Amsterdam. The apartment was perfect for my 20-something niece and nephew, along with myself. Two bedrooms on the top floor, one with a queen bed and the other with two twins, joined together by a Jack and Jill bathroom/shower. There is a tiny powder room on the landing by the living room and dining room. The spiral stairs are VERY steep and narrow! You need to be in good shape to walk up the two flights of stairs to get to the bedrooms. Bottom line, it is a wonderful apartment, in a fabulous location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
