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.”

Excellent hotel for a great weekend
Perfect location, great hotel, lively bar
Although the staff were friendly, the service in the bar and cafe was incredibly slow, despite lots of waiters hanging around !

Excellent choice
The vibe and location. In the heart of the nine streets for shopping and cool cafes.
They want to charge you for cleaning the room during your stay. I found that rather odd.

Great central, stylish hotel.
Great location and lovely layout. I’ve stayed here several times and will again.
The hotel takes itself a little bit seriously and sometimes the service can be a bit slow.

Beautiful interior in a great spot.
Beautiful and classy interior. Great location. Good view from the rooms with a view.
Lacked a lot of facilities, rooms didn’t have any storage, there was never enough water supplied, bathroom didn’t have enough space to hold a toiletry kit anywhere. No deal breakers but would have been more comfortable if there was a bit more practicality. The rooms with canal views had a beautiful view but the windows don’t open properly, just a few inches to let a bit of air in.

Lovely atmosphere hotel which was clean and modern with friendly staff. Bedroom was bigger than expected and the bed was significantly bigger than advertised.
The poached eggs at breakfast were hard. Everything else from our stay was fantastic.

Great room! the level of cleanliness and the comfortable bedding were good as well. The hotel's location was also convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions. However, what truly set this hotel apart was the exceptional service provided by the staff, particularly the front desk attendant named Mariana and her colleague. They went above and beyond what we needed. Our experience In Amsterdam wouldn’t been the same without their help.
It can be a bit noisy when the room is on the first floor

Ideal for design lovers who want to stay in the middle of the city center
The design and attention to details was perfect! The simple yet lovely breakfast was ideal and the location just perfect!
The reception was a bit unclear about the payment options and was a bit confusing to me and since young people are working they seem to care not really about your situation.

Great architecture in the heart of Amsterdam, nice food and ambiance too.
We didn't have the breakfast included but room service was very quick compared to most hotels. The building was very nice and quirky and the room itself was quite spacious. Perfect for a couple.
It was impossible to add our teenager to the booking - even though I felt the room was very large, we couldn't have another person in it. It is not as family friendly as some hotels, but it is still very nice for a couple or single person travelling.

Beautiful hotel, great location
Great location between two beautiful canals. I like the lively bar and restaurant, great for dinner even if travelling alone. The canal-view rooms are charming and very comfortable

The best place to stay in Amsterdam, for the cool folk!
The location was brilliant. Close to all the best bars, restaurants and boutiques that I wanted to check out whilst in town for business. The building has so much character even though it has modern upgrades. Loved it.
A little more stairs than expected. But that’s not an issue for me.

Lively, well- located, modern hotel with an exceptional staff.

If you’ve got a wallet full of Euros, not much time, and want something that captures Amsterdam, stay here!
Funky cool decor right on the canal in center of town. Spacious!
Just far enough from train that dragging luggage is a wee bit of an endeavor. Unique but pricey.

Nice Stay in Amsterdam
Location was great. 20-25 min walk to canal cruise, Heineken Experience, and the Van Gogh Museum. 7 min walk to Anne Frank house. Felt very safe walking in Amsterdam. We did take a cab from the Centraal train station.

Wonderful!
It is a lovely hotel with a great offering; I'll definitely consider it in other cities too.
The pictures and descriptions on the website for the rooms could have been a bit better, but the rooms themselves were lovely.

Perfect spot in Amsterdam
Gorgeous room, perfect location, stylish
We had horrible service at the lobby bar twice. It was noisy in our room at times. While we stayed in one of their nicest biggy rooms, it was on the ground floor so views of the canal weren’t as good as expected and people could easily see in our room.
