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.”

Great hotel in a great location
Great location. Very attentive staff.
The bar closes too early. No night menu. The mattresses are not too comfortable. The cleaning of the room was missed a couple of times

Great location and impeccable staff!
The Hoxton is a beautiful hotel right in the heart of Amsterdam. It is centrally located right on a canal close to plenty of shopping and restaurants, and it is easy to get around to all of the sightseeing you will want to do. The hotel is updated while still being in a historic building and the room we stayed in was really large and comfortable. The restaurant in the hotel is also great and opens early in the morning for breakfast (which most places around do not!) I can't say enough good things about Lana at the front desk - she was incredibly personable on check-in and even remembered my name through our entire stay!
There was not a lot of storage space within the room even though it was large. It would have been nice to have a closet or a few drawers for our clothing.

We felt very welcome and the room was beautiful. Bar and restaurant had good vibe.
Location is excellent. Cool Design in Retro color palette. Very friendly staff.
Slight smell from drain in bathroom but property old town house so maybe not unusual?

Best room in Amsterdam, for the spaciousness, cleanliness, and comfort of bed.
Great location with an excellent view of the canal. The friendliness of staff at the reception was also exceptional.

Exceptional service, very comfortable and centrally located
We had a good sized Bedroom overlooking the canal side. The Refreshments were topped up daily. Breakfast was very good despite the days when they were very busy with "King's Day". Dinner was excellent and good value. The reception staff were very friendly and provided advice and booked tables for our dinner reservations out side the hotel. They gave us exceptional information on how to travel to Keukenhof gardens to pick up the coach transfer. Could not fault. On King's Day we were given a hat and scarf so we could join in the celebrations too - very thoughtful.
Nothing to add. Great service

We would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful time at this hotel. The staff were exceptionally helpful with an elderly member of our party who needs a wheelchair. We loved our rooms, great views over the canal and it was very quite which is unusual in a lot of hotels.
The only minor issue was the mix-up over whether our rooms should be made up or not. You have to opt in to have the bed made and the bathroom cleaned but when asked they did it immediately.

Fabulous
Location, hotel/room design, food, staff, bike rental
Rated a 9 due to lack of gym on site, also the TV was somewhat old and kept shutting off

Stylish hotel, great location but not for me.
Great location. Stylish looking hotel. Bed was comfortable in bigger “roomy” room, with some thoughtful extras provided like chocolate, postcards and stamps.
Overcrowded, small and noisy reception area with queue to arrive and depart. The bar/cafe area is difficult to use - too busy and music bit loud. Very expensive 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?

Rooms, Staff & Location Lovely - Reception/Restaurant Underwhelming!
Room and Location was perfect. Staff were helpful on check in and check out.
A few times during our stay we went down to reception to have a couple of drinks, only to be told by staff we couldn't sit at a table in the restaurant as they are only for people eating - even though the restaurant was not full. All of the seating outside the restaurant was occupied by people on laptops working. One afternoon we decided we would have some snacks at the restaurant so we could get a table/seat. We ordered a bottle of wine which we were told 5 minutes after ordering they had run out of. We then wanted to order some food and were told the fryer was broken so the server told us the few things we could order. Considering how much we were paying I really expected better service, felt like they favoured locals with laptops over paying guests!

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...
