As a business and leisure traveler, one learns to appreciate the 5-star service from staff in hotels and restaurants. The Neighbour's Magnolia offers a very convenient location, I had selected a small room which was perfect for my stay, buy I received the attention as I had a presidential suite. It has the tram at only a few meters away and you can walk to all attractions in old Amsterdam. Will definitely stay again.

The room was super dirty: the dust between the towel radiator parts looked older than I am. They told it was cleaned daily... Also the toilet and the sinks were either leaking (sink one) or had blocked drains (toilet and sink two). Every time one of us had to use the toilet we were afraid it would overflow, so we tried not to use it at all. Finally, also the beds were old and not comfortable at all, the pillows huge but crumply inside, and we did not feel safe given that it was a ground floor / basement room with a door to a little terrace (with dirty ashtrays), which did not look like it could hold against a strong push. This all was topped with a disgusting smell of super sweet room sentence, which tried and failed to cover the weed smell in the whole hotel.

Nice little hotel on the tram line
I was on my own and the small twin room was perfect. The street it faces was a bit busier than I expected but the fan provided in the room created a nice distraction. The staff were fantastic! One note- the stairs are no joke- very steep! This would not be a suitable place for anyone that is unable to climb steep stairs.

The staff was great! Very friendly and very helpful! The hotel looks a bit dirty in the upstairs hallways plus the carpet could use a good cleanup. But the lobby/breakfast area all looks super clean and inviting. I would definitely stay here again.

Front desk friendly and accommodating. The room was in subpar condition with plumbing, electrical, and cleanliness issues. The kitchen not stocked with adequate utensils or cookware. One plumbing issue was repaired during our stay. We enjoyed the location of the hotel but ultimately we would not recommend it.

I wouldn't really recommend this place, it wasn't bad just not anything special or at all above average. One of the receptionists was very nice, the others standoffish. I am glad I didn't pay for their breakfast. The check-in area was fine but the rest was run down. It was at the end of the museum district so a good walk to the sites. They were not flexible at all, most hotels are at least a little.

Liked: Great location; staff very friendly and extremely helpful. Room spacious with a sitting area and pleasant balcony Disliked: 3 flights of very steep, narrow and twisty stairs (negotiating these with luggage was absolutely impossible for a couple of seniors - it seems this stair pattern is very command in the Netherlands but it did cause us serious issues (we’re both fit but the combination of heavy bags and a steep narrow staircase defeated us.) Very hot on top floor - portable air conditioner provided was little help; some rather crude wiring and no servicing of the room Good things - help offered and given with bag/staircase issue - much appreciated

Perfect for our weekend away
We went to Amsterdam for TwitchCon EU 2022 from Friday - Monday and this hotel was perfect for us. Was only a 30 minute walk to the arena and was a 5 minute walk away from one of the local parks. The stay was just what we needed with the included breakfast buffet being exactly what we needed to start our day. The staff were friendly and helped us out when we needed it (forgot our UK to EU plug adapter and they gave us a spare one to use). The room was nice and spacious and the complimentary water, fruit and hot drinks went down a treat after a long day at the Convention. Would 100% stay here if we were to visit Amsterdam again!

Dirty and Rude
The staff is SO RUDE! Every question I asked or interaction I had with the front desk was uncomfortable and cold. Our bathroom was dirty, I have pictures of a dirty tissue on the floor and hairs in our tub when we first walked in. Cleaning service banged on our door at 9am, right before we had to board a 10 hour flight. Look elsewhere, there are plenty of other options in the area.

Pleasant, well located for Museum Quarter, hotel
Well placed hotel just off the main museum quarter - 5-10 min walk. 5 min walk to Vondelpark. Very nice restaurants nearby. 10-15 mins to Rijksmuseum. All main city centre attractions within 20-35 mins walk. Nice friendly staff, good idea to have honesty fridge in reception with beers and water you can add on to your room and with free tea/coffee. The info on the website about catching the 397 bus from the airport was helpful but not quite accurate as currently the quoted bus stop Emmastraat is closed so had to go to Museumplein on advice. Its also 6.50 euros not 5 as stated, minor things but not helpful when you're visiting for the first time and assume that info is correct! (No cash on buses also, pre tickets or card payments only). Room was clean and functionable. Street side was a little noisy until afer 11pm bu ok. Room had kettle for tea/coffee and you can request a friedge etc. Free Wifi was good. Would use again.

Super friendly service. I had a single room which was a good size for me. Great shower. Clean. Fruit and bottled water left in the room (it was really hot, so needed!). Free tea/coffee hot chocolate. A few minutes from Vondelpark. Really lovely area to be based in. If you are relatively fit/healthy its only about a 30 minute walk into centre otherwise no.2 tram is perfect.

Lovely to stay in a traditional Dutch house with good access to the museums and the Vondelpark, plus a nearby tram to take us to the City centre.
