    One course from high wine
    Liz S.

    Stayed at The Dylan for 5 days recently and it's such a cute, central hotel and the customer service is superb. The only reason I'm giving it a 4 is because the room was very general/standard small room, but everything else was amazing. The Dylan has great amenities such as a gym and high wine (instead of high tea they do high wine) and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful with bookings. With it being Amsterdam, the hotel also has a slew of bikes you can rent for $15 euro per day. One thing to note, you have to walk past the staff at the front desk to get into your room every time, and the hotel gate closes at night to where you have to be buzzed in by the front desk if you're coming in after midnight. So if you're in Amsterdam to party this might not be the hotel for you. They also have two incredible restaurants, one being a Michelin-Starred restaurant and the bar offers an extensive menu with salads, apps, and mains. With the great location, cute decor, extensive amenities, and incredible staff, the Dylan is a great option for a stay in Amsterdam!

    The Dylan is a great place to stay when in Amsterdam. I was in one of the Loft Suites and it was absolutely gorgeous. I really enjoyed the architecture of the room, being at the very top floor with the exposed wood beams. The room allowed for lots of natural light. My only complaint was that there wasn't much light in the bathroom area where I would get ready. However, they did have a lighted magnified mirror which was helpful. The bed was extremely comfortable with the pillow top for my mattress that I had requested in advance. They were happy to oblige me. The hotel also provided me with converters for electricity since I had forgotten mine. Excellent service! The Dylan is in a central location and I found it to be conveniently close to all of the places I wanted to sightsee at. I rented a bike and cruised around the city as if I were right at home being completely immersed in the Dutch culture. The hotel has a private boat canal tour available. The captain/tour guide was extremely nice and informative. Overall, it was a treat to stay at The Dylan. They definitely rolled out the red carpet for me. I'd be happy to visit there again and recommend it to my fellow Yelpers.

    Hot mint tea

    This place is very pretty. We only came in to order Hot Mint Tea and use the toilet. The servers were very attentive and very polite. The bathrooms are very clean and well maintained. To flush the toilet, you have to pull a chain from overhead. It was very retro.

    We loved our stay here and will be back!! Adorable decor, friendly staff and great location. Service: if I could give them ten stars, I would. We had to change our dates and they were so flexible and accommodating. Then generally everyone is so friendly and helpful. We think the people in AMS are very nice but the service here is excellent. Location: they can brag there is a Michelin star restaurant in the hotel. Vinkels! Try it. Also very central to the city and everywhere you want to be. Amenities are great and they also offer 15 euro 24-hour bike rentals. Good deal! We will be back.

    What a beautiful and charming hidden paradise! Amazing rooms, decor, comfort, food and service. Rooms have everything you can possibly need and then some. Hotel is centrally located and is on the canal. In here, it's all about the details. I have stayed at many different hotels in Amsterdam but this one is by far the best, much better than the Pulitzer which is around the corner. We highly recommend it!

    An incredible hotel -- elegant and upscale but not pretentious, with astonishingly helpful and courteous employees. Pricey, yes, but worth the expense.

    While we didn't stay there this visit, we did have "High Wine" (the better version of High Tea) this evening.

It's not your typical "dinner out" spot--it's a humble counter inside a subway station--but the food is arguably some of the best Surinese soul food in Amsterdam. Why it's worth the stop: * The Sandwiches: The Broodje Pom is the star here. It's flavorful, authentic, and served on a fresh roll. * Efficiency: They move through the line fast. It's the ultimate grab-and-go meal that actually feels homemade. * Authenticity: It's local, unpretentious, and consistently high quality. Things to know: It is located inside the station, so there's no "ambience" to speak of and seating is very limited. It's definitely more of a "stand and eat" or "take it to the park" kind of place. Overall: It might not be a fancy sit-down experience, but for the price and the flavor, it's easily one of the best quick bites in the city.

We came during the dinner rush and it was packed inside. Since it was my first time, I wasn't sure what to order so I asked for recommendations. We tried the noodles with beef, and rice with chicken. It's relatively affordable given the large portions. Tasty and reminded me of a mix of Chinese and Indian food. I found an eyelash in my noodles though :(

Service was fast and attentive, and gave us a table for one hour (since we had not made any reservation). This was no problem since since and food came promptly. Food was reasonable in price and great tasting, although some would find the portions small. I found them just right. Get some home made French fries on the side if you are hungry. At the end the single espresso was really good. Recommended.

Having never had it before, I was pleasantly surprised to see how many different parts of Asia seemed to influence this cuisine, especially given that Suriname is a South American country! There is satay, nasi goreng, goat curry, etc - stuff inspired from all over Asia but slightly different than you would get in their original countries. I ordered the chicken Longtong which is an Indonesian dish and a specialty of this place. It was OUTSTANDING and really filled me up too. I did not expect that especially given how nice and cheap it was - I had even ordered an extra side of Satay skewers which I then had to share. Service is nice and quick especially since you mostly just interact at the back stand to order, and then sit down. It was a bit crowded inside but the vibe is nice and we were able to get a table without waiting too much. One minor note is that our cards were not accepted here (visa, Mastercard), so make sure you bring cash! They did a good job of communicating this before we ordered so we did not have to waste too much time, and luckily we had just enough cash anyway. Overall, very solid recommendation for Amsterdam! Surinamese food is not to be missed.
