Why We Like It

The Concert Hotel is ideally situated for culture vultures looking to visit the museums or next door concert hall.

Fodor's Expert Review

Cheap and cheerful accommodations in an early-20th-century house, opposite the Concertgebouw concert hall, near the main museums and Vondelpark.

Tip This hotel offers single, double, triple and quadruple rooms.

Recommended Fodor’s Video

Room

Small guest rooms featuring soothing neutral tones and photographs of famous jazz and pop musicians are more simple than stylish, but offer okay value for travelers (or groups) on a budget. There’s free WiFi, flat-screen TVs, and coffee- and tea making facilities.

You Should Know Rooms at the front can be noisy, and the walls are thin.

Bathroom

Small private bathrooms have (somewhat messy) showers and all the basic necessities.

Lobby

Basic, with a 24-hour reception.

Dining

Breakfast only, served in the dining room.

Drinking

There is no on-site bar.

Or soak up some authentic Art Deco atmosphere at Café Americain (18-minute walk) while tucking into “accessible brasserie classics with a twist”.
