Avani Museum Quarter Amsterdam Hotel

Everything was pretty good, except the 0.8-meter bed was a bit small and we needed to add an extra bed. The room on the 6th floor had a great view where you could watch the sunrise. Also, the cheese and ham from the downstairs fridge paired with white wine made a great late-night snack 🤭

The room was spacious and clean, with comfortable bedding. Right outside the window is the canal, and on a higher floor, you can enjoy the sunrise. The breakfast was hearty, with made-to-order fried eggs and omelettes. The staff were all friendly. However, the room lacked a main overhead light and was a bit dim; the blackout curtains worked great, but with no nightlight, you need your phone for light if you wake up at night (hope they add more room lighting and a nightlight). The elevators are sensibly distributed rather than being centralized, so you can use the one closest to your room. The hotel is just across the street from the canal, and about a 7-8 minute walk to Museum Square (Van Gogh Museum, Rijksmuseum, etc.). Public transport and tram stops are also a 7-8 minute walk away. Amsterdam is compact, so nowhere is very far. There are plenty of restaurants just across the canal from the hotel, with almost an entire street lined with dining options, offering great variety. Attached is a photo of the room minibar; the complimentary water comes in a glass bottle (with a tag).

The panoramic canal view room was great, with excellent views. The room was quite spacious and well-designed, and the bedding was very comfortable. The hotel's location is also fantastic, most museums in the museum quarter are within a 10-minute walk. It's also in a relatively quiet residential area along the canal. Breakfast was delicious. I found the staff to be less than enthusiastic; their attitude could definitely be improved.

The location is super convenient; it's just a few hundred meters walk from the subway. The area is very safe and close to the Van Gogh Museum, Rijksmuseum, and Vondelpark, all within walking distance. The canal right in front of the hotel offers beautiful views. The hotel service is excellent. The staff were incredibly warm and patient, both when we arrived and when we departed. Breakfast was also great, very comfortable and the environment was pleasant. The room size was quite generous, nicely decorated and cozy. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. I'll definitely choose this hotel again when I visit Amsterdam in the future.

The hotel is conveniently located about an 8-minute walk from the National Museum, and there's also a large Albert Heijn supermarket within an 8-minute walk. The canal view from the window, with boats, blue sky, and white clouds, was very pleasant. However, the room air conditioning was quite cold; the highest setting was 22 degrees Celsius, and it couldn't be turned off or adjusted higher. Even when 'off' was selected, it still ran. The room itself was relatively clean. The coffee capsules were a nice touch. The shower was good, but the handle holder was broken, and we didn't bother to report it for repair. The room TV only had three or four channels, but it was sufficient for watching shows. The breakfast was very rich and enjoyable. A taxi to the airport cost around 33 Euros. The hotel's location is great; you can walk from the hotel towards the museum all the way to Central Station. The front desk staff were all very polite. There were also jelly sweets at the front desk, which was fun. Check-in time was 3 PM, and we arrived early and waited an hour. Check-out was very strict, exactly at 12 PM. The hotel was fully booked on our check-out day, so we couldn't extend. The extension policy was 18 Euros per hour. Renting an umbrella from the hotel cost money. Overall, it was a good stay.

The hotel was quite comfortable and very clean.
