So happy we booked our stay in Amsterdam at Hotel Asterisk! First, our check in experience with Adam was a delight and he continued to be friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. Our room was large and quiet located in a building across the street from the main hotel. Our room overlooked a courtyard and it was nice and quiet even with the windows open! Location was close to everything - just a wonderful stay!

FANTASTIC place and super close to metro!!
FANTASTIC experience. The front desk was cordial from the very beginning and they took care of our questions and needs at all times. The owner and his family live on premise and we ran into them a few times and they were absolutely great people. This property is super close to metro and about 30 minutes from the airport. We took an Uber to and fro to airport. Very convenient. Highly recommend choosing this property!!

Museum convenient
Very clean, conveniently located, and well appointed hotel. It was our misfortune to visit during a heat wave and the hotel has no air conditioning. Pity! Otherwise it was perfect! Friendly knowledgeable staff. Comfortable beds. Great place from which th visit the museum!

The staff at this hotel are amazing and very helpful. The hotel is close to the metro and tram system although many of the museums, shopping, and attractions are within a 10 to 20 minute walk. This is located in a quiet area as well. The room was very clean and spacious with a nice carpet rather than hard floor that our other two hotels had. We appreciated the elevator to get our luggage to the third floor we were staying on. We would definitely stay here again!

This hotel is close enough to walk downtown Amsterdam and walk to the museums--it's in the middle between the two. It's also very quiet. I liked how the building has not been over-maximized because below my window was a first-floor green rooftop and a little backyard. One has the feeling that the hotel building maintains its original architecture. The elevator was helpful. I also appreciated that they have a large locked room to hold luggage on the day I checked out.

We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Asterisk very much. The rooms were modern and well kept. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We were worried that the hotel might be too far from many of the attractions in Amsterdam, but we found we could walk to most of them within 15-20 minutes.
