Authentic Farmhouse - De Vergulden Eenhoorn

Charming setting in a lovely garden with an excellent restaurant. The hotel portion is set in a historic, well-designed converted barn with very comfortable beds, good showers, and easy access to local transit. The metro is five minutes away and convenient. The hotel borders on a canal so the walk to and from is pleasant and scenic. The staff are helpful and accessible. The restaurant is a huge plus--it's very popular so book on the weekends for lunch and dinner.

Be aware of how busy the restaurant is on the weekend so book ahead. There were no noise issues at all, however, despite the happy families and gatherings. And the food is very good.

Close to metro stations (about a 5-10 min walk). There is a restaurant/bar on site for lunch and dinner. Staff is lovely and property is gorgeous!

We were a family of 4 adults traveling and it was a bit tight. The bathroom is in the “basement” and the lighting for make up isn’t great and there are no plugs for doing your hair (blow dry or other heated tools). Made getting ready a bit of a challenge.

Its clean and extremely comfortable with a luxurious classic design. Staff are very friendly and professional. It is also very quit and safe during the night.

The size and layout of the room was incredible! So spacious and the bed was massive and comfy. The speaker was great quality for the evenings and in the morning the blinds and curtains kept the light out I slept amazing every night. The walk to / from Amstel station is so easy and quick, about 6-8 mins max! It was clean, great size and exactly what we needed for the girls weekend away. Our plans for cancelled last minute and one thing we said was at least we were in a nice hotel to make the most of and didn’t mind having to spend more time in the room. The staff in the restaurant were really helpful whenever I needed ice or milk for the room, as well as Deene who helped us check in and check out was great too! The transport links are great, your in the city centre or other surrounding areas so quickly the commute was actually really fun, while also being nice your not in the direct city centre and the area of the hotel is so nice. A short walk in the other direction from the station there are good little shops and restaurants too. If I ever come back to Amsterdam I will definitely look at this hotel as an option again.

The only thing I can’t sadly fault about the hotel was the house keeping isn’t daily, and with 4 women sharing a room within 24 hours, we definitely could’ve done with a fresh set of towels and toilet paper. They came around on the 2 morning we had there and was great but wish it was daily. However, Deene was really helpful with helping over text message!
