Max Brown Hotel Canal District

This was our 2nd stay here. The staff are really friendly and helpful. The hotel is really well designed. The rooms are small but somehow they’ve managed to fit everything you need into a well designed space. Really easy walk from the train station. We’ll be back.

Was dubious as the description on here doesn’t do it justice. Was expecting basic but got a nice surprise! Canal view room 404 was amazingly spacious with an amazing shower. Couldn’t fault the service and the breakfast was lovely. Absolutely no complaints from a frequent traveller.

Fantastic hotel with wonderful staff!

I sent my parents on holiday here and they, not being in the flush of youth, really liked the hotel and the staff but there were too many steps for their liking. The access to the hotel was a little difficult for them. However, area around the hotel is excellent and very convenient for the canal and bus tours as well as the railway station.

Great location, small but comfortable room and bathroom. Staff were friendly, breakfast selection limited

Nice, small hotel, good service, small, but comfy room. Quite quirky

We were on the second floor up 46 very steep steps so we tried going upstairs too often.The bed was two single matresses so that we were separated.One night I turned over and the whole matress and me collapsed on to the floor,wedging me between the wall and the bed and unable to get up unaided! I made sure I didn't turn that way again! The position of the hotel was excellent ,10 minutes walk to the Centraal Station which we used when we arrived on the Eurostar The breakfast was excellent as was the Aperol Spritz we had in the evening.The stall were all very helpful.Special thanks to the young receptionist who brought down our suitcases as I think I might have fallen to my death if I had tried it!!!!!!!!!!

Situated on the Herengracht (one of three central canals), this is a lovely simple little hotel in the old town. We could walk pretty much anywhere in the centre without relying on public transport although trams, buses, boats, bikes - all seemed to be readily available. The staff were friendly and helpful with reception open 24/7. Breakfast was a very relaxed affair with a wide variety of continental standards. Choose your food, gather up your crockery, juice, coffee and any other items and then select a table in the bar area. If you are looking for a relaxed, friendly hotel with all the basic amenities including great hot showers with good water pressure (so often a disappointment in hotels) then this is for you.

Fantastic location for the city, quiet but quick to get anywhere even on foot, very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. Ground floor rooms a little dark but I would still recommend this as full of canal district character which is one of the things we wanted from visiting Amsterdam.

Max Brown is in a great location. Easy walk to Amsterdam Centraal. Easy to get to anywhere. Museum Quarter is only 25mins walk away. Our room had an amazing view of the canal. Breakfast is good and the wall of books is amazing! The staff are very welcoming and will help you book excursions and offer great tips too!
