B&B Jordaan


  • Inn Details

    We offer comfortable rooms in a traditional split-level building INSIDE the historical Jordaan area, downtown Amsterdam. All rooms are recently redecorated and each has a new(09) private & en-suite bathroom. Every room also has a dinig table (2-4p) private coffee/tea facilities and FREE access to our WiFi-Network. We're proud to tell that we received multiple awards in the last few years among those: 2 'Best of BedandBreakfast,com Awards'. All awards are based on genuine guest reviews. It is nice to know that in the opinion of our guests: We're amongst the best in Europe :). Our neighbourhood: 'The Jordaan-area' is a dense patch of small-scale streets and canals peppered with interesting shops, galleries, charming 'hofjes' and inviting brown cafes. Quirky and characterful, with an intimate, easy-going atmosphere of it's own. Ou house was originally built by a master carpenter and his family and later rebuilt by a printersfamily. The story is told by the old, picturesque craftsmanship tile in our gable. It is a historic part of the Jordaan since 1661. When B&B Jordaan opened it's doors in 2001 it was skilfully renovated with help of the Amsterdam Gable-sign Fund.

    The B&B Jordann is situated in a lovely old quarter of Amsterdam close to small shops, boutiques and restaurants. The neighbourhood is primarily residential which makes it clean, quiet and safe. Tram and bus stops are nearby. Important tourist sites are easily accessible by foot. The room was bright, spacious and clean. Breakfast was served in our room and was plentiful (eggs, cheese, meat, bread, yogurt, juice, coffee, tea). The beds were comfortable. Guests have the ability to control the temperature of the room. The proprietor was friendly, helpful and took a genuine interest in our needs. We had a very pleasant stay in this establishment and highly recommend it to anyone seeking accomodation in Amsterdam.

    My wife and I stayed here from Oct 10—Oct 21, 2011. Great place. I use a regular wheelchair to get around (paraplegic) and the hosts were very helpful in providing measurements before I made reservations. It pleases me to say that the downstairs/ground-level room was spacious enough for me to get around and the bathroom worked well, too, in that it features a walk-in shower connected to the sink and toilet at the other end of the bathroom. No grab-bars or anything, but definitely do-able. There are few stairs (one to get in the house) and two to go down into the main bedroom, but the hosts provided a door that served as a ramp to get to down the two stairs since we were visiting for so long, which was extremely helpful and convenient. The bed was two twin beds pushed together to form a queen, which worked well. Plenty of storage for two huge suitcases and clothes. The main part of the room was easy to navigate in my chair. The hosts, Charlotte and Paul, were very accommodating, friendly and helpful. They definitely made our trip a lot of fun and quite convenient. All-in-all, if you're in a wheelchair, this place is definitely do-able, but it will take a little bit of patience and someone to help you up the front step (about 5-6" tall) and the "door-ramp" (if you're able to get that done for you) down the two stairs (makes for a tad of a steep ramp). All that said, it's more easily-accessible than most of the city's restaurants and shops, so at least you'll have an easy time "coming home" every night!

    Six weeks before our trip, Amsterdam rooms were scarce and we were one step away from checking rooms in Haarlem when we came across the B&B Jordaan! Lucky for us Charlotte said she had a room available for our 3 night stay. To our surprise it was the ground level garden room! The B&B is in a very quiet residential area of the Jordaan district which made for great sleeping. The extra walking distance to Amsterdam's attractions was well worth the quiet nights. The room was spacious, light & airy, well appointed including chairs & table for two, plenty of storage space, coffee & tea and an oscillating fan which was welcomed on warm nights. The bathroom was also spacious, very clean & all fixtures worked well......no shower problems! Charlotte was very accommodating making sure we were relaxed & comfortable. Her breakfasts were delicious & brought to our room at exactly the time we requested. Meats, cheeses, breads, yogurt, etc. were fresh a delicious. A great plus was that we had enough food left over from breakfast to make sandwiches for lunch. Charlotte even packed us a sack breakfast on our last morning to take to the airport for our early flight, as well as arranging a early morning taxi! Although the B&B's exterior is unassuming, it wasn't difficult to find walking from Central Station which is about 20 minutes. Good cafes and small shops nearby. I would definitely stay at the B&B Jordaan again!


    Lovely B and B with very friendly helpful hosts.
