Frommer's "Upstairs, spacious and tasteful rooms cluster in groups of two or four around small lobbies, which makes this feel more like an apartment building than a hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Owned by a publisher, this hotel is proud of its literary connections and the authors who stay here."
Rough Guide "Small and stylish hotel not far from Leidesplein. Rooms vary in decor but all include a minibar, telephone and TV. Those on the top floor have good views of the city. €175."
Michelin Guide "Facing the canal, this complex features a 17C house and a huge 1921 building, where a pupil of famous French chef Escoffier once owned a food shop. Large guestrooms, studio and penthouse."
Star Service "Compared with Canal House, this bookish boutique operation has a conservative look, but the overall vibe is sophisticated with a pinch of fun." Full review
Time Out "In an 18th-century warehouse building near Leidseplein, rooms are plain but smart; the glamorous penthouse has a wall made of glass for unsurpassed views over the city rooftops." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"This three-pearl, 31-room hotel is set in a renovated 18th-century warehouse in the heart of Leidseplein, one of Amsterdam's busiest tourist areas." Full review
Fodor's "The busy location—happily many of the windows are double-glazed—is convenient to the major shopping areas, museums and park, and one block from nightlife-rich Leidseplein." Full review

Lonely PlanetTop choice
"In vintage Amsterdam fashion, squatters took over this former newspaper building, and an art community developed." Full review
Fodor's "The former Volkskrant newspaper plant, which closed in 2007, has been completely transformed into an affordable, hip space to stay, work, drink, dance, do yoga, and even get your hair cut." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"The former offices of De Volkskrant newspaper have been given vibrant and stylish new life as an affordable hotel, with a club, restaurant, and even artists-in-residence." Full review
On the Grid "A good place to sleep, with trendy rooms and its location near metro station." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"The 172-room Volkshotel is a cool, trendy mid-range hotel with a youthful atmosphere and a stylish interior design." Full review
Independent "Caters to a hip, young crowd and there’s pretty much everything you need on-site, from hairdressing, sauna and hot tub to yoga classes. The style is repurposed vintage, industrial piping"
Michelin Guide "Standard rooms are not without a charm all their own, boasting smart Continental thrift in the bedstee tradition with chic touches...they’re cozy, even handy, sounding the Volkshotel’s trademark" Full review
Independent "Swap the convenient location for a better price at Volkshotel. With dedicated workspaces, a raft of social goings-on and a rooftop hot tub and sauna"
