What Guests Say

Breakfast in The Highlander Amsterdam

The location of this hotel is excellent, just a few 10 minutes walk to the Amsterdam Centraal station. The room, the hotel itself is immaculately clean and they change bed sheets every day. Toiletries are provided and replenished and fresh towels too. The members of staff are friendly, helpful, accommodating and informative as well as the cleaners. The breakfast that they offer is very good. You can have your eggs as fried, scrambled or as omelette depending on how you like it plus many more, hot or cold breakfast. There is a bar also if you fancy a drink in the evening. I would highly recommend this hotel and I am looking forward to booking again when we come back to this beautiful city of Amsterdam.

Very nice hotel in a great central location, about a 10 minute walk from central station. The breakfast was superb. All of the staff were very nice and helpful.

Everything. We arrived super early but were told our room would be ready soon so we were directed to the cosy dining area to have complimentary teas & coffees whilst we waited. The room was good to go 15 minutes later. Our room was on the top floor and very atmospheric with dark colours & great views. We loved the tartan hallways (and agreed the Light Blue Floor is the nicest 😂). The pillows were a dream & the bed was fabulously roomy too. Breakfast was lovely every morning with a great selection for all tastes and the boutiquey vibe with graffitied art just added to the whole cosy experience. The location is perfect and so close to just about everything with plenty of restaurants & little supermarkets dotted around if needed. Should we return to Amsterdam I wouldn't even look at staying anywhere else - The Highlander is absolutely spot on 😊

Breakfast in The Highlander Amsterdam

Beautiful, clean, modern hotel with wonderful staff, all polite and smiley. Great breakfast with hot and cold options and plentiful. Lovely rooms, extremely comfortable bed and excellent shower. A couple of complimentary cold drinks and nibbles in the room/fridge as well as a coffee machine. Complimentary hot drinks on arrival and a round of drinks for my wife's birthday and they put a Happy Birthday banner and a bottle of wine in the room on the day! The bar has a happy hour where the first drink is not half price or 2-4-1 but free! Excellent location on the edge of Jordaan and all it's canals. Also a 10 minute walk from Central Railway Station. Would definitely return.

I got stuck in Amsterdam due to a cancelled train and needed somewhere to stay for the night. I booked a room on Booking in the train station, and the team was ready to check me in about ten minutes later by the time I walked to the hotel! They were lovely and allowed me an extra hour in the morning before checkout so that I could do an interview, and the room and bed were very comfortable.

Property building in The Highlander Amsterdam

Fantastic location very close to Centraal, the Dam and nine streets, but felt very boutique and not at all part of the touristy fray. Even while our room faced a busy street, the soundproofing was excellent and dark curtains helped us sleep very well in the comfortable bed. Our suite was surprisingly large given the compact nature of the building, with a super comfortable king bed, Nespresso, lots of surfaces for luggage and hanging clothes and coats. The window onto the street and the luxe interior design made for a big Amsterdam mood. Staff was always friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the cozy multifunctional lobby area.

The hotel was very clean, modern design (kinda bohemian/Scottish theme), hospitality and staff are excellent and we loved the location and walked everywhere. I will definitely stay there when I visit again. When I stay there next time I will make sure to ask for any room that is not on the Main Street as it is noisy because of trains and people having fun through the weeee hours of the night.

We loved this boutique hotel and the ease of access in and out of the property. Very convenient to main station, public transportation and all the attractions. We booked two triples for our family and that worked out nicely. The rooms were clean, beds and pillows were plump and comfortable, our rooms were quiet despite facing the street. Comfy chairs were a plus after long days of walking and for extra seating for other family members visiting our room. We had a great nights sleep. Loved the ample showers. The staff provided personalized service - including one night when we ordered take out for dinner and they kindly allowed us to eat in the dining area, provided plates and utensils, etc. Nice amenities of water, soda and snacks were a welcome touch in the rooms too.

The location is fantastic. It's quite centric and walkable-distance to most things. And when that's not enough, there's a bike rental shop almost next door. And further, it's very close to Amsterdam Centraal and to tram stations. The room is extremely cozy, and I'll miss that bed for weeks. Such good night sleep... Everything is super clean, all staff is lovely. And breakfast is so, so worth it. It's another thing I'm missing already.

We loved our stay, we would definitely stay again if we were back in Amsterdam. The staff were very nice and attentive. The hotel itself is lovely, it's got a qaint feel to it as you walk into reception. I LOVED the decor of the upstairs hall and our room. We were on the yellow floor it's really quirky. We were away for my birthday my husband mailed ahead and the hotel helped him decorate the room and get me a cake which was lovely. I saw some reviews saying the beds weren't comfortable I don't know what they're talking about as I found it super comfy and slept like a baby! The location was absolutely perfect. Far enough away that it wasn't to noisy but close enough to be able to walk to the station, town centre etc. We didn't eat here so can't comment but the coffees are lovely!
