Via Hotel is a MAGNIFICENT place to stay in Amsterdam. I was there for five (5) days and it was the…read moreperfect resting spot after studying abroad in Madrid for a week! . It's a lodging space that doubles as a hostel and hotel. You can either book a dorm or your own room. With my best friend, we had a standard double room with two (2) beds and our own bathroom. The window in the room was huge offering plenty of natural light. There was also a long, thin radiator underneath the window that kept our room toasty while we were out exploring the city. It was clean & spacious with a desk, a closet, two (2) nightstands both with their own lamp, fresh towels, a blow dryer with a heat concentrator, and body wash. . Aside from having an amazing room, the hotel has a ton of amenities. Via offers a buffet style breakfast for €12.50 daily (or €11.25 if booked in advance), in the lobby and at the bar, they offer mint water, they have a cinema room where you can do yoga everyday at 9am (the staff let us choose a YouTube video to follow along), there's a restaurant with a full bar inside the hotel called The Dude which is where breakfast is served; they also serve lunch and dinner. On the lower level, you'll find parking, there's a laundry room where each wash comes with free detergent, also lockers and a communal kitchen. . Lastly, our stay wouldn't have been as great as it was without the wonderful employees. Marika greeted us and helped us extend our stay. Peppin and Speters came to the rescue with ginger tea and a bucket when my friend was sick from possible food poisoning. Nicole rocked the house with karaoke night (they give free shots for every song you sing) and the gentleman behind the bar with the blonde bob (I didn't get his name) was always kind and helpful! The space was always maintained and everyone was professional. . As for location, the hotel is a 5-7 min walk from the Diemen Zuid train station and a half hour commute from Amsterdam Centraal. Train tickets are €3.40 cents one way and most people speak English. We took the train and tram everywhere. Within the Diemen neighborhood were some great spots to eat Mama's Pot was a 15 min walk offering Nigerian cuisine and fútbol watch nights, all within the same plaza and about a 6 min walk from the hotel lives Bagels & Beans. A vibrant bagel shop with grand and creative sandwiches, we had the cutest miniature sushi at Lil Tokyo and got snacks at Spar. . I highly recommend Via to anyone looking for a cool place to stay that is safe, clean, fun and budget friendly! We'll be back!

BEST HOSTEL EVER! I know what most people think when you hear the world hostel because I was that…read moreperson but if you're ever going to try a hostel this is the one to try. It was hands down the cleanest, cutest, and the staff was amazing. Honestly I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. I stayed with a group of 7 people and we all bunked an entire room together. The room was so spacious! The bathroom was so big! The short DEFINITELY needed to be bigger but I can't complain. They have a movie room, so many areas to just lay back and relax. Breakfast was delicious! You could basically stay here the entire time and enjoy yourself if you really wanted to! Thank you Via Amstedam; when I come back I'll be staying with you guys again! All the pictures I took were at night but during the day its so light and full of life!!

I adored this hotel for many reasons. Normally when I hear that a hotel is rated as being 3 star I…read moream some what discouraged in using their services. I suggested this hotel for a friend of mine who was visiting over the holiday break because I thought the location was ideal and the prices were reasonable. Plus I was completely familiar with the hotel because I stayed here once and enjoyed my stay. My room was only 100 euros, which is not bad... if you are looking for something last minute like I was at the time. My room and bathroom was nice. I had a lovely view overlooking the Amstel River and boathouses. -Pros about this hotel it's located in the center of Amsterdam. -Surrounded by plenty of tourist attractions -Convenient which means you don't need a car. Near public transportation or your in a great location where you can just walk to most destinations. -Location is placed in a nice, quiet, and friendly neighborhood - Close proximity to restaurants, markets, museums, theaters and shops. -Provides a continental breakfast. Cons -If your looking for a 5 star hotel with plenty of hotel facilities well this is not it. But I honestly didn't see anything wrong with this hotel. Service and facilities are good.I stumbled on this hotel because I needed a place to stay last minute, which was a plus for me because it's definitely something I would recommend to friends instead of using my place as a hotel.:)

The room was clean and a good size (we had a view of a canal). The breakfast, which I finally got to enjoy the last day I stayed there, was more than enough and enjoyable (nice dining room). There is no parking, so you have to rely on street parking, but you really don't need a car with this location.

We had it set to one of the lowest settings and I ended up needing to shut it off and open the window our last night. Tip: if staying on a weekend night, request an interior room. Ours was street facing and there was just enough loud foot traffic from people walking home from bars (mainly guys hollering at each other) that it's disruptive to sleep if the window is open.

Mauro Mansion is a small oasis in De Wallen. Even though the stairs are slightly steep they are easily managed. Our room 32 was very comfortable and quiet at night.

We stayed in the studio apartment on the second floor and it was just perfect-charming, clean, bright, amazing bed, great location, and a very friendly and helpful host. The stairs going up are a bit steep but after the first climb you get used to it! Everything you need is provided-TV, free wifi, small bathroom and kitchen area, wardrobe, table, etc. Monique also supplies several Amsterdam guide books and suggestions of her favorite places to visit in the area and beyond. This location is walking distance to all the main sites in Amsterdam and the 1, 2, and 5 trams stop right around the corner, it doesn't get much easier. Oh, and did I mention the bed? Yes...I did...but I'm going to mention it again. It is a Tempurpedic and it is possibly the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on-and my fiancé with back issues agrees! If we returned to Amsterdam I would stay at Mnque Bed & Breakfast again in a heartbeat and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
