This was our first time visiting Amsterdam and loved our stay at The Bolster. The hotel is conveniently located by the tram with access to the entire city. There are bars and restaurants right by the hotel as well as walkable options. The accommodations were right what we expected.

Was looking forward to staying here at the bolster being a frequent traveller in Amsterdam I have spent a lot of time in Rembrandtplein but not stayed before, Prior to arrival I had good communication with the hotel to advise of my arrival (they asked) I agreed to arrive at stated booking time of 2pm On arrival I was told check is 3pm and my room Wouldn’t be ready till then, I loaded my booking and other booking providers information that all show booking is at 2pm as well messages from the hotel staff. The staff member on duty blamed in her words errors by low capacity staff that they give second chances too and allow to work. Why on earth this was needed to be told to me. Anyway my plans were ruined I had booked a private boat to celebrate a anniversary for 4pm and now had now where to get ready till 3pm. On return at 3 I was offered 2 miniature soft drinks as an apology this was offensive as firstly they are tiny and what humane person drinks coke. Room cleanliness was 6/10 dusty Coffee machine didn’t work

We really enjoyed our stay at the Bolster. I would advise people that this is located in a very busy/touristy part of Amsterdam with outdoor restaurants and clubs. You can hear the noise slightly even 2 floors up. The staff were friendly and polite, they allowed us to enter our room early and to leave our luggage with them at check-out. Very comfy bed, with a tv and a/c. Would recommend a stay if you are going to explore the city as its in a great location making everywhere easily walkable.

We had a great time at Bolster! Room was tiny but just what we needed. Area is great but definitely not quiet, so if you are looking for calm gateway then I would chose somewhere else. Plenty of food options and coffeeshops in the area. Also be prepared to climb some stairs! No elevator, but it had its European charm :)

Fantastic Spot!!!
Great location in the heart of a busy historic district. Very unique place to stay. Other than the tricky staircase to go up to the rooms, everything was better than expected. Serena the manager is helpful, entertaining, and very accommodating!

Lovely!
Would stay here again, staff very friendly & helpful. Bed was really comfortable and room really clean. Was a bit noisy as we had room on the front and on top of a bar but still didnt stop us from falling asleep. Im a great area to ive stayed in a few hotels around this area before. I would recommend this hotel.

The staff were very helpful as we needed to check in after they had left for the day, so we arranged to pick up the cards using the lock box. The room was nice, although if you have any mobility issues, you may find the typical Dutch steep staircases quite hard to navigate. The bathroom door didn't close properly but the staff explained how the old buildings in the area shift a lot and this was why. The AC was a little noisy and you heard footsteps on the stairs but other than that it was quite quiet (except a faint sound of music from nearby bars). For the price I am pleased with the accomodation and really liked the colour schemes and it was fantastic being so close to a town centre by Rembrantplein and plenty of places to go for food and drink nearby. It's also very close to tram links which is very handy.

As three 18 year olds the room was perfect and the location amazing, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted, and the beds were very comfortable. The only improvement I can think of is if there was another mirror included in the room, thanks for a lovely stay.
