B&B Jordaan is not only an excellent B&B in one of the most lively and interesting area of Amsterdam, it is also a great experience in itself. Charlotte and Paul run the place with love, care and attention, providing you with all sort of advice and support. The Jordaan area is great, full of restaurants, interesting shops and with a lively taste of what really makes Amsterdam a unique capital in the world: a cosmopolitan place where local life is not erased by mass tourism. We spent 10 days with two children (5 and 9 years old) and we really had a great time, thanks to Charlotte and Paul who made every possible effort to suggest us the best choices, routes, happenings etc. I honestly recommend it as the best B&B we have ever been.

Charlotte was most helpful to me as a single traveler. One must remember that this is their family home (with two small children) so there will be some noise. I liked the fact that it was located in a family neighborhood and not on some busy tourist street.

Jordaan is the area to head for if you like a peaceful and cultural visit and BBJordaan is a great place to stay. This area has some of the most picturesque canals, eating houses, cafes and quiet bars - it could be called the 'green light district' as there are many trees, street gardens and house boats with interesting floating gardens. An area of safe narrow streets, interesting shops and delightful people yet only a few minutes walk from the railway station and centre of the city.

chambres propres, super bien placé (20 min à pieds de la gare), suivi de réservation vraiment parfait. toutes les informations peuvent être demandées à Charlotte qui est très gentille et attentionnée. chambres spécieuses, décorées avec gout, quasiment neuves. très calme, dans une ruelle près d'un canal. on regrette seulement le contact humain quasiment inexistant avec son remplaçant et les petit-déjeuner dans les chambres qui ne favorisent pas le dialogue.

Charlotte's b&b is a lovely, quiet place to stay while in Amsterdam. Many cafes nearby and a short walk to tram/bus lines as well as Anne Frank's Museum. Charlotte is so pleasant and attentive. Staying here is like living in Amsterdam, not just visiting.

The B&B was excellently located. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance or public transportation was available. The rooms were clean, and exceptionally quiet at night primarily due to it's perfect "neighborhood" location. There were great places to eat nearby and the hospitality was fantastic. Charlotte was extremely helpful in all our questions and had great advice when it came to getting around the town. I would definitly return if we come back to Amsterdam, and would recommend this to any of my friends. Breakfast was typical continental, and the double bed was only 2 twins pushed together. Besides that we really enjoyed our stay.

Our room was very nice in the basement with a nice little garden. The host was very nicely and courteous. She gave us a lot information about where to find restaurants and recommandations for trips in and arround Amsterdam. Breakfast was sufficient and tasty. Free internet access via WLAN. The district where the accommodation is located is one of the most beautiful areas in Amsterdam with lots of canals, small streets, cafés and restaurants. The centre of the city it is only 10 min away by foot. Due to a playground right behind the garden it was quite noisy in the afternoon.

Innkeeper Response
Although in the heart of Amsterdam our backside view couldn't be any greener. It overlooks one of the greenest Amsterdam 'hofjes' which also has a small (1-6 year old) playground inside. This 'hofje' is semi-public and only opened during working hours. The neighboorhoud takes care of it together and sometimes there's a kids birthday celebrated. Every morning we love to hear the little birds 'concert'.

This was the first time we tried a b&b, and it was a great experience! It's a perfect mix of personal treatment and privacy. Charlotte gave us some great ideas for spending our day in Amsterdam. Breakfast was very nice as well. And the Jordaan is a perfect location for sightseeing Amsterdam. We would definately recommend this b&b!

fabulous place to stay- amazing neghnborhood- the host charlotte is warm & friendly and really made our stay exceptional. She had wonderful recommendations for restaurants and day trips. It is located in a residential neighborhood which is really nice, quiet, but right smack in the heart of everything you could possibly want to do or see. Within walking distance of everything. I do wish that there was a sign of some sort though outside the house- we did eventually find it- but were a little taken aback by the fact that there was no sign of any kind to indicate that it was an actual B&B. I think they should have a nice sign outside the door- We loved our stay there- and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone visiting Amsterdam!!!

From the beginning of my interaction with this B&B I knew I was dealing with a very professional B&B. The owner sent detailed information about the B&B, how to pay, where and how to park, and was easy to reach by phone with questions. The room was clean and comfortable. Spacious. The owners were very friendly and by the end of our stay we had a little play date with our son and their daughter at a local park. We enjoyed talking with Charlotte about the history of the neighborhood and Amsterdam in addition to Dutch culture. It was a very memorable stay - personal, comfortable, and easy.

My fiance and I stayed 2 nights in early October and found B&B Jordaan to be wonderful. Charlotte met us with a smile and showed us to our room which was spacious and clean. Before sending us out to explore she also gave us some ideas of places to eat and sights to see. Each morning we were served a delicious breakfast in our room and were offered additional suggestions if we desired. I would definitely stay here again if we end up back in Amsterdam! We walked to most of the sights but there were tram stops close by as well which make the city very accessible for everyone.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at B&B Jordaan. It is located on a quiet street that is easily acccesible from the train station by a short bus ride or an interesting walk. Our room was large, very comfortable, bright and airy, very quiet and private. We enjoyed the large Dutch breakfasts that Charlotte served to our room at our requested time. We sat at the table by the window and watched swans swim by on the canal at the end of the street as we ate. The B& B is located close to many attractions that are within walking distance - for example Ann Frank House. The Jordaan area is very interesting to walk in with many small atiliers, shops, cafes and restaurants. We ate in the area each evening as there was so much choice. Charlotte is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the area and Amsterdam itself. We appreciated her recommendtions for places to eat and activities. She is a gracious host and always had time to chat with us, providing us information and answering the variety of questions we had. We would happily stay at B & B Jordaan again and would highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Amsterdam.

I probably can't say enough about this B&B. Charlotte couldn't have been a more gracious hostess, helping us first with the parking meters (since we don't read Dutch), carrying my suitcase up the stairs, making fabulous restaurant recommendations (we went to all of them!)... I can go on and on. The B&B was perfectly located in the charming Jordaan neighborhood, an easy walk to all areas of interest. Nights were quiet and the rooms were comfortable. Breakfasts were good and were served in our rooms at a time we chose. Charlotte offered us guidebooks as well as advice on any questions we had. My husband asked about a specific type of hobby store, which Charlotte researched and got back to us with suggestions. I heartily recommend this B&B!

Photo Album

The gable-stone, made in 1663, was altered in the beginning of the 19th century. Only if you get very close you can see what happened.Our beds are know to be very comfortable.
Enjoy breakfast in the privacy of your room and watch the awakening of the Jordaan.To every room we built a new bathroom in 2008.
