Estherea Hotel

( 4 stars , Amsterdam , Netherlands )

Hotel Estherea is really an outstanding boutique hotel. It is charming and elegant. The rooms are comfortable and nicely decorated, and the bathrooms were clean and well equipped. We travelled with children ages 9 through 13, and they loved the 24 hour hot chocolate! We looked forward to coming home at the end of a long day sight-seeing to rest in the lounge with coffee and hot cocoa. Quite delightful-- we will definitely return, and have already recommended this hotel to friends and family.

We arrived at the Estherea at 9:30 a.m. after a 12 day cruise and were warmly greeted by the hotel, despite the early arrival. The hotel is a beautifully furnished, inviting European hotel with fresh flowers and stained glass around the waiting...

I've stayed at many hotels in Amsterdam and the Esterea is by far my favorite. I firtst discovered the Esterea in 1993. I was instantly hooked. The hotel is conveniently located near all major attractions and is just a 10 minute walk from the main shopping area. Situated on the quiet Singel canal, the Esterea is a charming family-owned hotel. Room are modern with all the comforts you would expect. Breakfast is served daily in the lobby.

We stayed in a surprisingly spacious twin-bedded room with a large bathroom. The room was comfortable, clean with good beds and nicely decorated. The only fault was the nonexistent view. The staff were efficient and pleasant and the public rooms, although small, were charming. The location was unbeatable.

It was a very charming & comfortable place to stay. The Breakfast was good. The staff were all pleasant and helpful. The location was a little inconvenient, but tolerable.

The hotel has got real charater to its interior, with very nice and helping staff. Worth every penny we spent for the tarrif......surprisingly i tried to book that hotel again in Easter and teh prices we got during Christmas were 3 times chceaper...........

Hi I would just like to say how much I enjoyed my stay at horel esterea,my friend booked me this as a wedding present , altho i only stayed for less than a week it was worth it ,i was happy in my room theres evrything you need,tv,iron and...

The Hotel EStherea is beautiful and cosy. Their slogan is Home from Home. Well if my home was like this I would never leave it. The rooms are a bit on the small side but not inconveniently small. As all the other reviews the tea and coffee station is very welcome and it is very nice to be able to make a drink there and sit back in the lounge area and relax at any time of the day. They leave you cookies and cake and jars of sweets dotted around the place. A very nice thought which we appreciated. Loved the bedroom and got a canal view as requested. Very colourful and cosy decorated. We got some dvd's in a store near us and wanted to watch them and reception will send you up a dvd player or video player and set it up. I dont think there was a fee for this. Breakfast is nice if you are able to eat early in the morning then it is worth the 14 euro. The hotel is about 5 minutes from Dam square and the history museum. And the American book store is around the corner (left)behind the hotel, you could spend a day here. What a store. All english books. Do book your Anne Frank House tickets online for 8 euro as you will be glad to excape the crowds. Also we found it helpful when we bought a cd film about the life of Ann Frank in a store near Dam Square, and watched it before we visited and It made the visit much better as it is crowded enough th read the signs so you know the house story from the film and can visualise it better. There are some nice restaurants near the hotel too so its location is excellent. In summary I would highly reccommend the Estherea for its comfort and location it is a gem. I would definetely stay here again. Note that you must leave your key in to reception anytime you leave your hotel even for a short walk as they are strict about this. But it is good security.

We loved this hotel with it's charming rooms. We had a three window room overlooking the canals from the fourth floor. The staff was great and really went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. The location is close to all of the attractions in Amsterdam and we walked everywhere, took in a canal tour, Museums and so much more. Definitely would recommend this hotel to anyone.

A fantastic location - walking distance to all the major site as well as the train station. Excellent restaurants within a couple block distance. I loved it - a great location for a charming city!
