As a frequent traveler to Amsterdam, I can confidently say I’ll never stay at a Max Brown hotel again. While the beds were comfortable and the views nice, the negatives far outweighed the positives. Check-in was a nightmare — rude and unhelpful staff, and no notice of construction that woke us at 7 AM with drilling and hammering. The buildings have extremely steep stairs, making them impossible for anyone with bags or mobility issues. Locations are less convenient than advertised, and our room reeked of cigarette smoke because staff members were smoking at the entrance. Rooms also had stale air and little charm. Max Brown hotels could be lovely, but the lack of service, transparency, and comfort makes them a hard no for me.

We changed to this property not long before we were due to go on our trip due to terrible reviews from the hotel we’d already booked. So so so glad we did this! The hotel was beautiful (very steppy though so not great if your mobility isn’t good) although there is a lift inside but has many steps up to the building. The staff were very friendly & helpful. The rooms were very clean and loved the decor. The beds and pillows were the comfiest I’ve ever slept on I think! Really really pleasant stay - thank you!

Cozy in Amsterdam

I won’t lie, the room was VERY small, but enough for a single person and the bed was very comfortable. The location could not have been better, with very short walking access to Vondelpark and a stone’s throw from the Rijksmuseum. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the time they took to give me some local recommendations.

Only stayed here for one night by myself whilst exploring the city. I was given room 404 and I adored it! Not only it was decorated in a very fun way, but the view was gorgeous. I spent hours just reading and looking out the window in the late evening. I'd love to go back again some day.

Location is amazing, 2 minute walk to the tram, 7 minute walk to Leidseplein. A very quiet street and staff were amazing, always so helpful. I was travelling with my 2 daughters 20 and 18, we always felt safe. Would definitely return to this hotel. Highly recommend.

I liked how everything was in the heart of the museum quarter, shops nearby, in a quiet, safe and friendly area, very clean. The property was decent, quite pricey though, drinks in the room should have been complimentary - especially bottles of water. Room should have had a fridge. Two sockets in that room did not work and create unsafe fizzling sounds or it would charge my phone/laptop very slowly.

This property has a great location and the staff is very pleasant. The rooms, on the other hand, leave a lot to be desired. The beds are super small and really hard. The outlets are not convenient and the rooms are really tiny. The windows are often blocked, very drafty and difficult to close. We basically paid 400 Euro for a shoebox with 3 cots in it. I can’t say enough about the location but the rooms were overpriced and not comfortable at all.
