Our stay at the Amsterdam Wiechman was wonderful. This old converted canal house felt very authentic, down to the steep narrow stairway (adds to the charm). Our room had a bay window overlooking the canal that was so enjoyable to sit at. The bed was great. The bathroom was small and a bit awkward but not unexpected for a European bathroom. The location was perfect with a Euro Q R park nearby. It was easy walking distance from anything and everything you'd want to see while in Amsterdam. My absolute favorite part of this hotel is the breakfast. The selection was amazing - we absolutely loved sitting by the windows and watching "the world go by" as we ate. Definitely recommend staying here!

While the hotel itself is nice, the rooms were kind of lacking and decor and charm like the rest of it. Some things in the bathroom could have been upgraded and I was standing in 3 inches of water by the time I was done with my shower. I let them know about it, and they were supposed to go fix it, but they never did. The breakfast was decent. They did help us out by letting us leave our bags a few times before and after checking in and out.

Nice Hotel but not very comfortable
The location is great, it is a very beautiful and old hotel. But there is not air conditioning and in summer it was so hot that it made the stay unbearable. Besides, we stayed in the 3rd floor with no lyft and the stairs so tiny that we really struggled to carry our suitcases.

Dear Julio,Thanks for your positive review! You stayed during the heatwave and it was indeed very hot in the city. This usually never happens so we never needed airco.. Our stairs are very steep and typically Dutch and we make no secret of it that they are a workout! :)We wish you all the best and warm regards,Hotel Wiechmann

Lovely centrally located hotel
Lovely old building in a perfect location for sightseeing and shopping. Very steep steps unsuitable for infirm trying to take their bags upstairs to rooms on any of the four floors. Otherwise perfect for the price.

Pros: clean, friendly staff, breakfast area was beautiful and good variety. Free hot drinks. Cons: the stairs will kill you . I kid you not. I don’t have mobility issues and still found carrying luggage up the stairs very dangerous. Amsterdam has narrow stair cases but from a safety standpoint there should be either a lift or old school pulley to hoist luggage up. Other major con was the distance to public transport. If you are short on time those walks to public transit will be very inconvenient (again speaking relative to Amsterdam which is very well connected) . Overall I don’t think I will stay here again which I feel bad about saying considering the staff here is nice.

Good location. Breakfast was good. Great view of the canal. Very clean. Negative. Our timber floor was unbelievably noisy. It was a blessing to get on the bed and off the floor. Street noise can be clearly heard. Toilet paper was not replenished.

Off the beaten path
Friendly greeting upon arrival. Narrow stairs to room, pack light, no lift. Room was small but perfect for a solo traveler. I enjoyed the location, it was always a 20 minute walk from what I wanted to see. Not in the overwhelming touristy area.

Location was perfect, we walked everywhere. We asked for a room on a low floor, and were on the first floor above ground floor. If you slept with the window open, you could hear people talking outside as they walked by, but that's to be expected. With windows closed, you didn't really hear it. Fabulous view over the Prinsengracht, which is what we wanted for King's Day. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom was clean, the water was very hot and great pressure! Yes, the stairs are narrow and steep, as they are in Amsterdam. Breakfast was continental, with an excellent people watching from the dining room. Would definitely stay here again.

Very small room, no mini fridge and no TV. The staircase is extremely steep, Breakfast was good as was the location. The staff were very mixed. Some were pleasant but the majority unfriendly. I think with a room rate of 71 euros I would not stay here again

The hotel is not as high star as the rate given. It’s old and not feeling safe when I stayed. It is over priced if the room charged is not in good condition.

We loved the history of this building and the location. The stairs were a bit of a concern, very steep and small. The room and bed were comfortable, a bit small, but met our needs for a one night stay in Amsterdam.

Clean & sufficient
I stayed for 2 nights in a twin canal view room on the second floor. The room was spacious, had the essentials & was clean. Whilst everything was in fine condition the room itself is quite dated - old carpet, dated wooden furniture, all in one bed & pillow cover etc. The bathroom was clean but on the smaller side. Yes the stairs were steep but I took them one at a time & was ok getting my bag up. Wouldn’t be suitable for less mobile people. Getting it down was harder, I had to sit on my butt and slide down each step to get my bag down! But I did have a 24kg large suitcase. Staff were friendly, I didn’t eat breakfast but it looked reasonable (eggs, cereals, cold cuts, cheese & bread). The location was convenient & easy to walk to Dam square. There is a bit of street noise on the weekend but nothing terrible. Would I stay again? Yes although I’d probably try & see if I could find something more modern at that price point. However, accomodation seems to be quite expensive in Amsterdam! Overall it’s a basic but clean & friendly hotel.

I have read the reviews about the stairway in the hotel, and did not take it seriously. However, after hauling my luggage up the stairs I would not recommend this hotel unless you are traveling very lightly. The stairs are very very steep. Even going down the stairs was spooky. I also thought the room was tiny with no room to move about. I guess there are bigger rooms at this hotel, but the tiny size of our room was ridiculous. The room was old looking, ugly carpet. This hotel needs an overhaul.There was mold in the base of the shower. I would not go back.

The location of the hotel is in walking distance of most of the sightseeing attractions. The rooms and other amenities are good. The hotel does not have elevators and very steep steps. So taking your luggage was challenge.
