The Hoxton Hotel, Amsterdam
Expert reviews
“The Hoxton Amsterdam, the first property outside Britain, opened in July 2015 with 111 rooms spread across five historic canal houses on the Herengracht canal. An excellent value with Dutch style and British humor, the Hoxton Amsterdam hits the sweet spot by balancing a hip vibe and relaxation.”
“Part of a Europe-based chain known for high style at affordable prices, the Hoxton has 111 rooms – in sizes from ‘shoebox’ to ‘roomy’ – splashed through five canal houses.”
“Encompassing five 17th-century canal houses straddling the Singel and Herengracht canals, the first Hoxton Hotel outside of London delivers a coolly sophisticated vibe—think Williamsburg meets East End London—in a coveted spot within the 9 Straatjes shopping area.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Amsterdam.
“On a beautiful canal, within walking distance of the major museums and with a hip shopping quarter on its doorstep, the Hoxton has a buzzing lounge-bar, a great all-day restaurant, a style that mixes recent with retro, and good-sized, comfortable rooms.”

Fabulous
Stayed here to celebrate King’s Day and This was the perfect hotel! The location is amazing and the special touches the hotel itself had for the day were amazing. My only point of criticism is the lobby gets very busy which can be overwhelming but if you like staying somewhere with a bustling city feel to it this is for you?

Great location, convenient walking distance to Centraal Station and all major attractions/museums. Loved the boutique feel of the hotel, the well appointed rooms and lovely views of the canals.
13 April 2024
the view from my room over the canal was worth it all
service location and room were all exceptionally good
the breakfast ares could be a bit more cheerful in the morning it feels like more a night venue could be both... fine tuning the colors and ambiance but im splitting hairs...

Nothing! Everything was great.

Great stay!
The staff were super friendly, especially Juan who helped to book taxis, helped with charging my phone and also helped carry my case to the taxi when leaving. The food at the restaurant was superb. They had a dj playing on Saturday night. There is a fun Photo Booth! And lots of complementary water. A Lush gift was placed in our room for my daughters 16th Birthday. Thank you!!
Room size and an extra mirror in the main bedroom or bathroom for applying makeup would help or replace the smoked glass mirror in the bedroom as I found it difficult to apply make up.

Cozy, romantic, despite the 11 degree (Fahrenheit) temps outside. Restaurant was also very good.
The views out our window were amazing, especially sunsets. (and this was January!) We were in the attic with these great wooden beams to duck, but it was very comfy. Shower/bath was also really good.
Would have been great to have a bed/breakfast option.

The Hoxton is absolutely incredible. From the "first impression" they prepare when you enter your room, to the smiling helpful staff, you're guaranteed to enjoy every minute of your stay with them. Everything is quirky in a very cute and fun way. They are definitelly my go-to choice for staying in Amsterdam moving forward.

Perfect for an affordable and stylish stay.
The design and style of everything. Brilliant location too.
Nothing in particular.

Other than the small errors noted, the trip was very nice and we will stay at the Hoxton again.
The location was incredibly convenient, and the room was nice, although I wish I'd stayed on a higher floor. That was my fault for not making a specific request. Overlooking the canal was a treat for a first time visitor to Amsterdam.
The service in the restaurant was slow. There was an event at the same time we were eating, and our meal was delayed so much that we had to leave before it was even served because we had theater tickets. The waiter actually had us pay our bill and kept promising that the food was on it's way... and then 5 minutes later repeated the same promise. I knew we were tight on time, but this threw a monkey wrench into things and caused considerable tension between my wife and me. The next day, the manager did credit our bill but because we had paid for dinner separate from our bill that became a little complicated — still the manager was very nice about it offering an explanation rather than an excuse. Finally, the person who actually checked us out made an error on the bill such that we were mistakenly charged 85,000 Euro which temporarily froze my AMEX account until I resolved the issue in the U.S. If I didn't carry alternative cards and cash the trip home would have been difficult. The mix up was human error and the manager honestly thought she caught it before the charge went through but I guess it was "processed" too quickly. Obviously, AMEX rejected the charge after all, my limit is insufficient to cover a charge of 85k in Euro but they did put a fraud notice on my account which is why my card was temporarily frozen.

Honestly, The Hoxton Amsterdam was the best hotel experience I’ve ever had
Great location. Lovely restoration of an older building. Wonderful restaurant and bar/lounge area, good food and super good coffee, and most of all extremely helpful and friendly service. Honestly, this is the best hotel experience I’ve ever had!

Charming stay excellently located within the best part of Central Amsterdam.
Great location. Good service. All the hotel amenities with no nonsense.
Could do with better luggage moving facilities around - some of those rooms are difficult to access with big bags.

Most wonderful place, totally made our trip.
A stunning original building with a lot of character but totally filled with everything we needed. A restaurant and bar with a calm and sophisticated atmosphere. Room was beautiful and clean to the highest standard. The staff were kind and always on hand to help with anything we needed. Room was soundproof and we had the most comfortable sleeps.
There was nothing we didn’t like, it was fantastic.
