Funky hotel
Very funky hotel, very convenient for the metro. However, the "atmospheric" dim lighting was a real problem for me as a visually impaired person.

The room was clean and with just enough space. Could use another chair.
What I didn’t enjoy is the front desk stuff. I don’t think they even say “hi” to us. I’ve never seen less welcoming front desk. Was a bit surprised.

I love my stay there!
Was easy to get there and very close to the station like 1 minute walking.
The room is quiet small,however is perfect for a short stay.
I would definitely go back to volkshotel.

Nice hotel. Only a star off since a LOT echoed from other rooms if people were loud.
I also felt really bad for the bar staff upstairs. I don’t know what kind of management they’re suffering under but the system they’re forced to use is insufficient and ridiculous. It took me ages to pay a drink bill because of how their system worked. It was NOT an issue of their servers and bartenders. If anything I’m amazed they didn’t quit.

This is a great hotel with a professional staff. If I had a question they were quick to help. I wanted to walk the stairs instead of elevator they showed me where that was and walked me over to the area. You check in everywhere with your room card so its super safe and secure. The breakfast was amazing with great views. The roof top sauna was an experience I wont soon forget. The room as quiet the bed was comfortable. The price made sense. This is a great stay for solo, business, couples or small groups. They will take great care of you and have everything you need in house, but a lot to walk to nearby. Metro was 4min walk and you can take to Centraal Station and then off you go throughout the city or the Netherlands at large. This will be my go-to accommodation when I stay in Amsterdam. Thank you for everything!

Loved our weekend at Volkshotel.
Room was spacious and clean.
Staff were extra helpful, food in the restaurant and bar/cafe downstairs was great.
Sauna and hot tubs in the roof were excellent.
Yoga on Saturday morning was superb.
Really close to a metro station- 10 mins to the city centre, supermarket just up the road.
We would absolutely stay here again.

We stayed in the cabin which was great. Only complaint was the shared bathroom didn’t have paper towels and the hot tubs on the roof smelled gross.

Incredible stay at Volkshotel! Would stay there again and would recommend it to any friends and family. Minutes walk to the metro station, grocery store just a block or 2 away. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and have all the necessities.

Love the hotel! Stay here often for work. Friendly staff, good atmosphere and good food and drinks. Menu could be expanded… but that’s my only issue.

No room phones or sugar and cream for coffee and tea but the upgrade to a studio was nice. Security is tight. Took 4 card taps to get to my room. Least expensive rate I could find for a Saturday night in Amsterdam for my Sunday flight home.
