The Student Hotel is great! Our Amsterdam City location is more than a hotel: it’s a hub for co-living and co-working where travellers, locals and students get together to learn, stay, work and play.

We have travelled extensively for the last fifteen years and this must be one of the most hyped places we have ever stayed. The location is great, close to the metro. Everything else failed to deliver. We arrived just before 3pm on 25th April having travelled 8 hours to be told our room was not ready- finishing touches to a newly renovated room. At 3.30 I then asked a different member of staff, Jessy, and she offered us an ordinary room- we were happy to take it as we were tired. It was a studio room, okay but no bedside tables and the horizontal blinds were really dusty. Two seventy year olds didn't have much use for the free condoms but we had to ask for tea and milk. The food at breakfast was good, an excellent selection, but the seating arrangements were chaotic with too many large tables occupied by one or two people . When we checked out we were met with a blank stage. A fire door was wedged open on the first floor. We paid 270 € for a very average stay and it felt more like a hostel than a hotel.

Positive stuff first: - The hotel location is fine - The staff was nice - It is clean-ish But in my opinion the primary function of a hotel is a place to sleep in and if the hotel doesn't deliver that, then... There was nailing to the walls and constant drilling from 8 a.m., and we could not possibly sleep. This was not acceptable, given the price of this place.

Black mold in the bathroom in each room looks like something normal for this hotel (according to other reviews) Cleaning service doesn’t care about carpet vacuuming at all. Nobody informs that renovation work is going now in the hotel and it starts from 6am. Enjoy your stay buddy 🫠 Don’t forget that it’s a dormitory… Drunk students and music in the middle of the night is not a surprise here.

Perfect location, super clean, comfortable bed and great staff. Professional and friendly! Oh yes, very good breakfast as well. Every sign on the wall brings a smile to your face and seeing a lot of young professionals around as well! From now on this is where I will be staying when I travel to Amsterdam!

We checked into the hotel last night, expecting a peaceful stay. Instead, starting at 8.30 AM, we were woken up by the relentless noise of drills, hammers, and construction work. This is completely unacceptable—we came here to relax, not to feel like we're in the middle of a construction site. The only solution offered was to move to a lower-category room, which is simply not an option since I paid for a higher standard. A hotel of this level (4 star) should inform guests in advance about major renovations, allowing them to make an informed decision before booking. Very disappointed with how this situation was handled.

What an amazing hotel! We stayed here for a 3 night stay and we were thoroughly impressed with the quality of the room (Deluxe Queen) which had a TV and a lovely bathroom. Staff were friendly, courteous and helpful with requests. The nearest metro is a 5 min walk (Wibautstraat) taking you all the way into central and all of the other districts. The tram and bus stops are very close too, use the metro to cross the road to the supermarket which also, has a great choice. The breakfast was amazing and well worth the price with an amazing choice of food to set us up for a day of exploring. Photo attached of my choice. Not to mention, the decor was super cool and definitely very trendy. Only criticism, pillows could use some changing, they are more cushion shaped than pillow shaped, and took a night of getting used to. And, if you’re on the top floor, it appears that certain smells may come through the extractor fan as people enjoy some evening delights on the roof. 🍃💨 We weren’t offended by it, and it’s Amsterdam, so to be expected!

Nice and clean room with comfortable pillows. I really enjoyed that they have books in the room, and found myself reading a bit everyday. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the hotel breakfast was ok. Even though they didn't offer to many vegan options (like vegan cheese etc), I didn't have to go hungry. We also had dinner in the restaurant and that was good as well.

The rooms were nice and staff were very friendly. The hotel needs a little work but all in all it's very nice. For example there was a corridor door which was always jammed. The problems we faced were: The renovation they're doing with workmen banging materials all day long including the afternoon. On informing reception, they changed our room but still there was banging up our heads. The TV for the room they gave us was not working for mobile sharing, and believe it or not there were zero english channels in both room TVs. On one night there was an event at their only restaurant so they closed it off for the hotel guests. I would have expected that they leave a part open for their hotel guests or at least keep the food shop open a little later not close it too. This since there are no eateries in the vicinity. I suggest that they don't rent rooms next to renovations or else inform those guests in advance and give them a better rate. TVs should have English. The restaurants and food shop should never be both closed before 10pm.
