3-star boutique hotel with themed rooms in a 1652 canal house on the Singel

Accommodations

The hotel offers 12 individually themed rooms such as The Boat Builder, The Miller, The Cartographer, The Bookbinder, and The Instrument Maker. Each room incorporates antique elements and reclaimed items from Dutch craftsmen, like a propeller in The Airplane Builder or a part of an original brewery in The Brewer. All rooms include private bathrooms, air conditioning in select rooms, and views of the Singel canal from many units.

Dining

A complimentary breakfast is served each morning in the Gallery, a cozy café with canal views, offering fresh pastries, Dutch poffertjes, cold cuts, cheese, eggs, fruit, and yoghurt. Guests can choose to have breakfast delivered to their room, and the staff accommodates dietary restrictions such as gluten-free bread. The hotel also has a coffee house on site and can provide wine or champagne upon request.

Services

Staff members act as city ambassadors, providing personalized recommendations via WhatsApp before and during the stay. The hotel offers luggage storage, daily housekeeping, and a concierge service, along with pet-friendly arrangements for guests traveling with dogs or cats. A welcome message with stroopwafels and a small gift of Delftware coasters on checkout are part of the experience.

The hotel sits on the Singel canal in the Western Canal Ring, less than 1 km from the Royal Palace Amsterdam and 1.1 km from the Anne Frank House. De Negen Straatjes (The Nine Streets) shopping district is within a 5-minute walk, and Amsterdam Central Station is a 10-minute walk away.

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Craftsmen, set in a beautifully renovated building dating back to 1652, is often praised for its unique, themed rooms, such as the artist room and boat builder room, with some offering amazing views of the Singel canal. Guests frequently enjoy breakfast in The Gallery, appreciating the ambiance and canal views. While some guests noted that the hallways and rooms can feel small, the hotel's central location puts you within easy walking distance of Amsterdam's main attractions. Little touches like welcome wine and rooms equipped with rain showers are also guest favorites.
