We were only there for one evening. The room was very clean and even available for us earlier than check in. That was much appreciated after an overnight flught. The beds were comfy. We slept like babies. I had a little trouble with the hot water but worked it out. The room is basic and clean.all that you need.

We had a very nice stay here and would definitely stay again. Very friendly and chatty on reception and it's a great location for getting around, decor slightly dated but nothing that bothered us in the slightest.

Very modest hotel and frankly, overpriced. The rooms are incredibly small with paper thin walls, so you can hear everyone in the other rooms around you. There is no AC, and rooms can be very hot. The WiFi is very bad, at times bouncing me offline when just surfing the web.

This was my third time at this property and have liked it. THIS time, however, I was informed that guests are not allowed to have guests in their room. You have to socialize in the lobby. This happened as I was headed to my room with a guest. Not posted anywhere in the lobby or on Expedia or informed at check-in. Said it was because of noise complaints in the past.

I loved my stay at Owl Hotel (stayed 3 days) but here’s some info on what I liked and disliked so you can decide if it’ll work for your trip. Likes: -It’s the absolute best location. We walked everywhere, and if you’re not in the mood to walk too much there’s a tram and bus stop very nearby. Super close to the main city area with bars/shops/etc., and also very close to Vondel Park which was a beautiful spot for morning strolls and breakfast. That being said, it’s a good enough distance from main areas that we weren’t kept up with street noise. -It’s super cute and just has more character than if you went to a big chain hotel. If you’re looking for somewhere with some charm, this place is great. -Staff was very friendly and helpful. -Room was nice and clean Dislikes (or just things you may want to know: -there doesn’t seem to be much ability to control your room temperature. We visited in February so we didn’t mind it much, but if you visit in summer and need AC, maybe think twice. -When you leave for the day they have you leave your room key with the front desk for security. That’s fine, but I noticed when we’d come back to collect our key we’d say our room number and they just gave us the key, even though it was often a different person on shift who didn’t know our faces. I didn’t feel unsafe at all but it does seem a bit unprofessional/ safety risk that they’ll just hand out the room key no questions asked. Would make me nervous if I had been travelling solo.
