Family Hotel Kooyk

The staff at this hotel are super helpful and friendly. I suggest only booking a room with a bathroom in it. The bathroom we had to use was so tiny it was hard to use. Overall it was ok, they could do a few minor upgrades like, more than two hooks in the room to hang your cloths, a fan when it's hot and a hook or two in the separate showers to hang your clothes while showering. If you have trouble with stairs be warned, the steps are very narrow.

Die Unterkunft ist sehr zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Nur für eine Nacht ok. Die Betreiber sind ausgesprochen freundlich! Die Zimmer sind in einem eher schlechten Zustand und renovierungsbedüftig. Nachts waren die Nachbarn im Nebenzimmer sehr laut. Insgesamt würde ich aber nicht wiederkommen.

La ubicación del hotel es muy linda y en cuanto al precio es muy bueno también. La atención del personal fue muy buena la verdad, súper majos todos. Hay que tener en cuenta que el chek in es hasta las 23 hs por lo que si se pretende llegar más tarde hay que avisar con unos días de anticipación ya que la atención no es de 24 hs. Lo malo que tiene es que no tiene ascensor y las escaleras son súper angostas por lo que se dificulta subir y bajar y más con las valijas. Además los baños también son chicos y en el piso donde estábamos nosotras había un sólo baño (y 2 duchas). La habitación es chica pero para dormir nada más está bien.

The owners of the hotel were so deceptive. If you look on their add you will still see that they offer breakfast. When we arrived and asked about breakfast the excuse was that we arrived late and they needed our reservation for breakfast made earlier. We heard they say the same thing to other guests upon arrival. After speaking with employees of this hotel they confirmed they do NOT provide breakfast, not even for purchase and haven’t done so for a very long time. Also we let them know there is no running water in the sink of one of the bathrooms, no light above the mirror in our room, the hair blower did not work and the pillows are small and lumpy. They said they would fix the items but never did during our 3 night stay. Also, we asked for some heat as it was very damp (temperature outside was down to 14C at night and 16C during the day). Their response was they couldn’t do it until the fall. Others were wearing coats and staff sweaters. The great thing about this hotel is the location. I do not recommend this place because of their deception overall. They don’t care about their guests but sure do like taking our money.

Had just one option of a bathroom outside of the room, but was for me only to use, thou clean got flooded within few min of shower. Staff was great and straight. She let me checked in earlier as the people left earlier from my room which was the best thing ever

Lo bueno: Muy buena ubicación. Zona segura, cerca de restaurantes, bares y puntos de interés, así como de transporte público. Lo malo: Pagamos una habitación privada con baño privado y resultó que el baño no está dentro de la habitación, hay que salir, caminar unos pasos y ahí está el “baño privado”. Esto no se especifica al momento de reservar, sino que te lo informan ya estando ahí. Además dicho baño no requiere llave, por lo que realmente cualquier otro huésped lo podría usar si así lo decide. Por otro lado, la TV no funcionó, nunca tuvo señal y al pedir ayuda al personal solo me indicaron que era problema de la zona. A pesar de que es un hotel libre de humo, la habitación olió todo el tiempo a cigarrillo (que se supone a estaba metiendo por algún lugar desde fuera). En resumen, es una opción viable por el precio, pero es mejor pagar un poco más por otro lugar. No regresaría.

As a budget hotel in a very popular tourist area Kooyk Hotel was ok. Comfortable, clean bed, with bathroom for own use, and a friendly welcome on arrival. Remember to take flip flops or similar as our bathroom was a few metres down a corridor. Room was very small, stairs very steep and narrow (both the width of the staircase & the depth of stair tread) so tricky for anyone with limited mobility. Decor just seemed tired and only just about ok. Did not try the breakfast but breakfast room looked nice. Tram at Leidesplein about 5 mins walk (links including central station). Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh museum a pleasant stroll away (through the park, if you like). Nice bars & restaurants nearby.

Honest review. Pros - The owners were lovely dont know why there are lots of comments about the being rude. The location is amazing with fantastic links to all locations via trams and its nice and quite especially for being in the city. We didnt eat breakfast but the facilities for dinning was clean and well laid out. The bed was large enough and comfortable, i always take my own pillow when i travel. We also had doors which open onto the balcony. Cons - the hotel does feel quite outdated and a bit more like a hostel. We paid extra for a private bathroom, these arent attached to the room but it wasnt that much of an issue to be honest. Overall we had a really comfortable stay it just felt like it needed updating a little

Location is great for shopping, eating and being a tourist. Clean and very safe. Warning to Americans who are new to the Netherlands, the stairs are very steep so I am grateful we were 1 floor up. Also, shared toilets and shower rooms may be a shock and they are pretty small at this hotel.

We had a very good stay at the hotel. The location is excellent—very central—and the shared bathrooms were exceptionally clean. Our room was quite spacious and had a lovely view of the canals. The older gentleman who welcomed us (unfortunately I don’t remember his name) was very kind and friendly. If I had to mention something less convenient, it would be the narrow staircase, which might be challenging for guests with heavy luggage or limited mobility, as well as the number of doors to reach the room. We were only given towels on the last day, thanks to the cleaner who kindly left us a couple. Overall, I would still recommend this hotel: it’s clean, centrally located, and very accessible

Clean room, very pleasant staff

Muy bien ubicado y acogedor, la primera vez que me quedó en un lugar con baño compartido y todo fue súper limpio y agradable.

I would not return to this hotel ever. The people there were very rude. Most of the electric outlets in the room didn't work. The bed is very old and uncomfortable. There is a window but no ventilation. The bathroom was dirty.

Room not clean, even big trash in the room. Shower full of hairs, shampoo was broken and dripping.. Shower water didn't flow away. Bad odor

Notre séjour devait durer 3 nuits mais au bout d’une seule nuit nous avons décidé de partir car au bout de quelques heures de sommeil mon mari s’était fait piquer sur la tête, le bras et la main … par des punaises de lit. On nous a laissé partir en nous disant qu’un expert passerait. De plus la chambre était sale et les murs et le sol étaient en mauvais état. Nous sommes restés moins de 24h..

Buen trato del personal, fueron muy amables y atentos, ubicación a tan solo 15 min a pie del centro (barrio rojo), cerca de todo, con muchos comercios alrededor, las instalaciones limpias, sin grandes lujos, muy buena relacion calidad-precio. Muy recomendable.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Super friendly staff, lovely room and general cleanliness was brilliant. The only thing I would suggest is perhaps the beds were a little uncomfortable - not the mattress, but when you would turn on them it would feel like the whole thing was going to topple. Apart from that, the view from our window, use of the shower and toilet and it's closeness to the city centre made this trip stress-free and very enjoyable.

Lovely rooms, the rooms are spacious but the toilets and showers are tiny! Nothing bad though, just a heads up. Also you can hear your neighbors most of the time but other than that it’s pretty peaceful

Excellent stay. Lovely location. All clean and tidy. However beds really soft which struggled to sleep as double bed was also two singles pushed together.

Pierre and Mary were absolutely amazing and they really try to comfort you and meet your expectations. Extremely friendly, chatty and funny and they accommodate to your every need. I’ve enjoyed my stay here and would come again.

The owners were helpful and welcoming. The location is excellent, and the building was quiet considering how central it is. The beds were comfortable and clean. Everything was quite compact, but serviceable. I would stay here again.

Konumu iyi

Hay varios hoteles de igual o menor precio en el área, no reserve porque tenían baño compartido, esta propiedad igual. No estoy segura de checar bien este detalle pero el final por el precio nos ajustamos a esta situación. Todo esta cerca, hay negocios, atracciones, restaurantes, etc. muy céntrico. Al final todo resultó bien

The room was tidy and had everything that was mentioned when we booked the hotel. Great location with good pricing.

Everywhere was clean, no problems there. It was a minimalist room with everything you needed for a comfortable stay. There was an area as part of the hotel to get food and drink at the appropriate times which was simple. Unfortunately due for time we were unable to partake on the breakfast (which was available for a reasonable price added, especially being in Amsterdam which can be quite pricey) but it sounded lovely. Homemade pancakes were an option that nearly tempted me to miss a flight. The hosts were attentive, friendly and very knowledgeable of the area. As well as just being generally a delight to chat to. For a private room/bathroom, options of breakfast, wonderfully friendly owners, basically in the centre of Amsterdam.. it couldn't have been any better. Would definitely come again.
