  Not a Good Experience, this Time

  07 Jun 2026

  had a very decent experience, especially the staff were v.good. However this past May 2026 the experience was dreadful. I stayed 3 nights and the coffee/tea stand was never refilled, never. When I finally asked for my room to be made up a guy knocked on the door, then he came back about 10 mins later, placed a couple of towels on a seat just inside the door and left, that is taking the P and is not a room clean. I give it a two only because some of the staff were present and I was allowed to leave my suite case in the hotel on my last day after checkout which was 11am, not the worst. Anyway other than that the experience was less than stellar, oh one thing that bugged me, they has a industrial sized water dispenser in reception, a bottle but not 1 cup in evidence for the 4 days I was there, this screams CHEAP, they have the water but don’t want people using it, I’m already regretting that extra review point.

  Doesn’t worth the money

  30 May 2026

  I would like to start with the positives of this hotel, it is in the very center and walking distance to all the main tourist attractions, the hotel staff are very pleasant and try to help. As for the disadvantages, the room was not ready and we arrived after 3 pm, as an excuse we could use the restaurant and have a drink of our choice, the room was spacious for three adults, but the floor was very dirty and dusty, the bathroom was clean but not the others, the water did not flow, the shower head in the bathtub was damaged, tears were flowing, on the toilet door there were noticeable stains from the previous guests' make-up, the mattresses on the double bed were separated and were sliding off the bed. There was nowhere to sit in the room except the bed, we asked for an extra chair or armchair but we were not granted. We are not demanding at all, but for the price of 1000 euros for three nights I would expect a slightly better approach. The hotel also did not inform me about the forgotten hair straightener that I left there, I do not expect it to be sent to my address but an email or message would be acceptable. The price absolutely did not correspond to the services and certainly not 4 stars, maximum 3 and I am adding a lot. Hotel DM, Owner at Hotel Amsterdam - De Roode Leeuw, responded to this review Dear Alice,Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

  Romantic anniversary weekend

  03 May 2026

  Location great for amsterdam tourist attractions, trains and trams.We ate here at the adjoining restaurant for breakfast once which was nice. Theres an option for buffet for €20 which we did not have but it all looked delicious. VERY comfortable bed,we slept very well.All hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Easy check in and check out. We used their free locker service for all our luggage which was so convenient! We stupidly forgot some clothes after checking out and went back to ask for it,they had bagged and labelled it and located this for us which we were very grateful.One morning our electrics tripped out,I reported it to reception and by the time we returned from our day out it was resolved. Nothing was any trouble.The double room on second floor (217) was very clean and tidy, great coffee machine! No view but we didnt care. Room, towels, tea and coffees replenished daily. Everything worked. WiFi was fast and consistent which was really handy for researching where to go! LOADS of places to eat within walking distance. We were spoilt for choice where to go for our meals and never bored. We went to Queens head gay bar drag night Thursdays which was alot of fun and cocktails were strong! We were very lucky with the weather and the sunshine made everything look even more beautiful. We would definitely stay here again for its perfect location, facilities, customer service and comfort. Unfortunately littering was really awful, bins overflowing, vomit, broke glass and food on the pavements evidence from the night before. We watched cleaners and steet sweepers with jet washers work hard every morning to tidy up the streets for it to be sadly twice as bad within hours! This is one of the unpleasant sides of Amsterdam which spoilt such a beautiful, friendly city. Hotel DM, Owner at Hotel Amsterdam - De Roode Leeuw, responded to this review Dear Vicky,Thank you so much for sharing your experience - what a lovely way to celebrate your anniversary.

  Quiet relaxing single

  21 Apr 2026

  I booked a single room, and though it was 10’x10’ it was comfortable, thoughtfully appointed and clean. Made a request for quiet room and was give a room over looking central air shaft (they might have called it a courtyard). Though there was no view, it was quiet, had windows that could open for fresh air and private shower/bathroom was well appointed. The location could not be more convenient, near central station, just steps from Dam square and right on the tram line. I would defiantly consider booking again if the price is right (in a rather expensive city for accommodations). Hotel DM, Owner at Hotel Amsterdam - De Roode Leeuw, responded to this review Dear Kristan,Thank you for sharing your feedback following your stay at Hotel Amsterdam De Roode Leeuw.
