Hotel Frank since 1666

Room is rather small but enough for sleeping only. No elevator. Room has all the amenities.

No lifts but hotel staff will carry your luggage to your room. Great location - near to restaurants and walking distance to attractions

The front desk staff was great. The stair case was quite steep, so this location isn't good for anyone with mobility issues.

Friendly staff and very clean property. Extremely convenient to get to places and very walkable. We stayed in the Royal room which had beautiful views due to the large windows. But did get hot inside during the day due to the direct sun (it was around 62F outside). Also the staircase is quite narrow & steep so watch for that. But overall a beautiful place in a beautiful location

Old building with character No lift and very narrow staircase Room was small but perfectly formed Excellent location near restaurants, cafe etc Nice friendly staff

Unikt lite familiedrevet hotel med fantastisk beliggenhet. Kommer definitivt tilbake. Ligger vakkert til ved kanalen, kort til alt, gangavstand til museumsområdet og til sentrum, restauranter og butikker. Hvis du er ok med smale bratte trapper (bare tre etasjer) uten heis og liker å bo i et genuint miljø (gammelt byhus) er dette et perfekt hotel. Kommer absolutt tilbake hit neste gang.

Stairs were challenging.

It was unique- steep staircase. Nice size, good bed. Awkward shower

Very interesting room, unique to its old age. Staff both friendly and helpful. Stairs are quite steep, but manageable by this 70-year-old couple.

Excellent location near Rembrandt Square in a building from 1666. We selected the attic room, which had delightful beams and a VERY steep staircase. The toilet and shower were very nice. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the hotel was quiet. Highly recommend!

Sehr schöne und saubere Unterkunft

Very clean! Quiet! Close to cafe’s, grocery store, flower market…5 minute walk. 15 minute walk to Van Gogh museum and Rijsmuseum. Take tram at Rembrandt square to central train station. Very easy 2 minute walk to pickup.

Fantastic room, very clean and a good space. Hotel in general is very clean and in a great location. The staff were all really friendly and were happy to accommodate a couple of requests from us. Will definitely stay here again

Staff were great… room was really clean and shower fantastic ! Great location

Great historic building that they have ruined with modern decor. Black painted walls and modern furniture, extremely small rounded dangerous staircase we nicknamed the stairs of death because they are covered in black carpet so you have problem seeing the steps. Light system option is to turn every single light on or off - you can't go to the toilet at night without turning every light in the room on. Room poorly lit and black walls made is worse. Neighborhood has become severely touristy and noisy. Bring your earplugs. Upside is at room was very clean but there was a sewage smell in the lobby area.

Lots of narrow stairs, room was clean but had a really bad odour. Staff came up right away said it was from shower and had to run water got a bit better but still had the odour. Hotel was full so had to live with it. Kept windows open. It’s a big room and bed was comfortable. We were on the first floor facing The square which can be noisy at night.

The hotel is the in a fantastic location and is charming given its age. We stayed in a room in the “Attic” which was unique. The stairs were scary as they are steep and narrow. Our room had everything we needed, however we were constantly navigating the beams and the lighting was not enough. There was dust in nooks and crannies. Loved the staff; they were kind and thoughtful. I’d try another room if I were to stay again as the location was soo good for getting around.

Dejligt charmerende hotel tæt på alt. Meget rent og venligt personale. Skøn udsigt til kanalen fra vores værelse.

Alles war sehr gut , sauber, freundliches Personal, super Lage.

Lovely stay, so kind, polite and nice staff, really clean and cosy room with nice view :)! I can really reccomend this hotell.

The location of this hotel as well as the incredible helpfulness of the family that runs the establishment is incredible! It was great to walk down the steps and be right in a square with lots of restaurants and activities. It's about a mile walk to any outside excursions which was really nice. It is a true European experience though, if you're looking for lots of room or for top notch air conditioning then I wouldn't suggest this place. Expect to open the windows and feel the breeze and see the canals, we loved it but it was warm with the windows closed. The stairs are also a bit daunting but that's to be expected if you are staying at any historical building. The staff will take your bags to the room so you don't have to lug them up though. Overall we loved our experience here but if you're looking for a marriot this isn't it.

Brilliant location, stunning rooms, and great staff. But lacks practicality by how dark the rooms have been made. No practical lighting, so in the early mornings, you cant even see clearly to shave or i dare say apply makeup. Its overpriced because it lacks the very bascis of decent lighting in order to function as a hotel room.

The top floor room had posts and beams often. Hard for anyone to navigate and certainly not over 5’8”. Plus the stairs were so steep.

Hôtel disposant de chambres de petites tailles. Nous avons pris la chambre en soubassement. Très sombre, des stores occultants cassé et pas de possibilité d’ouvrir les fenêtres correctement. Ceci-dit, le personnel est adorable, l’emplacement est parfait pour se balader et visiter tous les lieux emblématiques de la ville à pieds tout en évitant les nuisances du quartier rouge. Donc je recommande.

Quirky hotel in great location ..close to shopping bars restaurants and tram ..you’re right there .. nice view over canal .. walls and floors are thin so you can hear noise from others .. we had a premium double and it was really nice and memorable..would recommend for a weekend break as everything is on your doorstep and very safe

Late last year I booked a Classic Double for 2 nights at $300/night (plus tax) at the Hotel Frank. With, I thought, pictures to support my booking. Last week I was checked into a basement room with no windows. A room Iwouldn’t have paid $25/night for. When I complained, I was told the hotel had had other complaints, and recently clarified on Hotels.com that this was, indeed, a basement room. Too bad they never told me! I’m writing from my 15’x8’ room. All black, with LED strip lighting and three wall mirrors. Presumably to make the room look larger and brighter. But all this does is cheapen the experience further. While the room has an in suite bath, it is not a separate room. The bed faces the shower. Sink is on the bedroom wall. Only the toilet is behind a door. There is no closet or dresser. With 3 steps from the shower to my bed, there is no room for laying out luggage. Let alone share with a second person. Lastly, the room appears to be under a restaurant. I can hear footsteps and chairs sliding on the floor! At 11pm!! And again at 8am!!! It’s outrageous that a hotel could get away with such false advertising. And that when asked to return my pre-payment so that I could find another hotel to stay with, the hotel staff could only shrug and say “you booked a basement room, there is nothing I can do”. But it would be even more outrageous if, after reading this review, sites I rely on for regular travel booking continue to carry the Hotel Frank on their platform.

Overall very good and convenient. Room AC, and I realize it has a low setting of 19, room based on a thermometer we had noted 23-24, with the setting at 19. Perhaps thermostat issue. Just a note. Otherwise the room was great and unique.

This is a lovely family run hotel, in a great location close to restaurants and within easy walking distance of all of Amsterdam’s best sights. Our room was on the third floor, and at first glance it was a little disconcerting. The stairs are very steep, and that was worrisome. However, our bags were carried up for us at check in and back down when it was time to go, so we needn’t have worried about that. Our room was spacious, clean, and had a nice big shower which we appreciated. The negatives (for us) were the low beams and the single, small, window which made the room feel a bit claustrophobic at times. Having said that, we were aware we were staying in the attic of a 348 year old building, and the uniqueness of the situation somehow outweighed the negatives. If you’re over 6’ tall or have any mobility issues, then this room wouldn’t be for you. Otherwise, it’s a property you should check out.

My stay was pretty below par and expected more to be honest. I was staying in one of the basement flats in the hotel which isn’t the rooms that are provided in the photos - no natural light and even the lights in the room would frequently not work or I’d have to turn on manual strip lighting instead which feels pretty lame Safe’s didn’t work, which isn’t a huge issue but goes to the principle that there was a lot of small things that didn’t feel right with the place that didn’t make it an enjoyable experience I Ended up leaving the hotel earlier to go elsewhere. For the room that got and the price I paid per day, there’s much better hotel options out there

Great spot, very attentive and friendly staff

This property is near so many great attractions, neighborhoods, shopping and dining. Staff was super helpful as we drove in from Germany and parking is atrocious and parking garage is a must btw. Not car friendly but that is part of the appeal of Amsterdam right?!

Very comfortable and cozy. The staff was so helpful and attentive. Would definitely stay again.

Love staying here, it’s my second time at this hotel and the staff are very sweet, rooms are very nice and clean, great location.

Just an exceptional hotel with the most AMAZING staff. So warm, accommodating and welcoming. 100 out of 100!!!

Great staff

Great staff at service desk. Excellent location and very cozy room.

The front desk went out of their way to be helpful and kind. We really appreciate his suggestions and help. Fantastic!

The Service was very good

Massimo and his brother Fernando are fantastic! Brothers were very helpful. Room was very clean & modern. Great location too!

The hotel is located in a great place for night life (Rembrandt Square). The room has a fantastic view!!! The bed was a bit hard for us but very clean. During Friday and Saturday nights, you can hear the music from the bars well into the early morning hours but nothing ear plugs couldn't fix. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Location is brilliant - literally just off Rembrandt Plein. Room was good size. Bed was comfy - pillows bit on the soft side for me tho. Staff friendly and polite. Main downside was the bass coming from the club a few doors down.

Very clean! Quiet! Close to cafe’s, grocery store, flower market…5 minute walk. 15 minute walk to Van Gogh museum and Rijsmuseum. Take tram at Rembrandt square to central train station. Very easy 2 minute walk to pickup.

Great location. Easy access to tram to central station and many dining options in the area

The hotel location was superb! Lots of restaurants and bars and a short walk from shopping precinct! The tram is situated a 1 minute walk from the hotel and can go to any part of the city. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return again

The location was exceptional. We were able to walk most places. It's right where the night life partying happens yet more conservative than the red light district. The staff were excellent

Adjacent to many bars. People yelling in the street until 4am

Hotel was very cute! Very old with a lot of character. However, only downside was that it was in a very noisy part of town and it was very loud outside until the very early hours of the morning, making sleep very difficult.

Es buena opción ubicada en una zona céntrica de la ciudad con varias opciones de restaurantes y bares a unos cuantos pasos, el personal es servicial y amable y las instalaciones adecuadas. Importante tomar en cuenta que hay que usar escaleras ya que no cuenta con elevador.

The Hotel Frank is located in an upscale, central neighborhood with bar and restaurant options just around the corner. It's also a 15-minute walk to just about everything - the Rijksmuseum, the Royal Palace, etc. We stayed in the Royal Room with a view of the canal and it was fun to watch the world go by from bed. We'll be back!

Recommended: A very nice place to stay. Close to shopping and sights. The room was quite comfortable: modern and clean shower and WC, large comfy bed, all well arranged. For a longer stay it might be nice to have a few more hooks and hangars. If you are coming from Centraal, you'll probably want to take a taxi: its a long walk. Like many places in Amsterdam the stairs a very steep. Be *sure* to check out the Italian restaurant across the canal

Grewt location, quite a 'funky' hotel. No restaurant / breakfast. Room 104 very dark and down some very steep (ladder like) steps. Noce room though.

Traditional and stylish canalside property in reasonably central location - good access to museums, galleries etc.. Wide selection of local restaurants though of variable quality.

The property was excellent. Obviously a lot of history but expertly renovated. The staff was excellent; very accommodating and friendly. Plenty of restaurants, shopping, and a train to the airport was a maybe 100 yards away. Across from the Waldorf where celebs and diplomats stay.
