Location is unbeatable and incredibly and immediately well-connected to many tram lines, taxi stations, and bike rentals. We stayed with our mid-30's 'special needs' son in adjoining rooms with a shared bathroom. This historic property has been... read more

I first stayed at Marcel's about 12 years ago after reading about it in Rough Guide and I couldn't believe that this treasure, although featured in a major guidebook, was such a haven that hadn't been overrun by other travellers. Marcel is a gem... read more

We have been to Amsterdam 3 times and Marcel's B & B was by far the best accommodations and location. There will never be a reason to stay anywhere else when we visit again. He is an extremely interesting, worldly character that is more than... read more

This is unlike any other bed and breakfast in almost every way. For starters, there is no breakfast, but plenty of coffee and tea if you want it. The lack of breakfast (which is easy to obtain in one of the many nearby cafes) is easily made up for... read more

From the moment we arrived Marcel was the most helpful host, his house is beautiful and he knows all the best places to go. We will hopefully be returning one day. Last time we visited we stayed in a hotel but this was far better. Marcel is a legend!

If you want something extra ordinary, you should stay a few night with Marcel in Amsterdam. This 72 years old host, knows all about Amsterdam and still dance at the clubs this city has.

The ‘Balcony Room’ has the nicest view, but you can better ask for a room in the back of the house if you’re a light sleeper. Due to the narrow staircase the guestrooms are less suitable for the disabled. Shopping and sightseeing 
The location of Marcel's Creative Exchange’s is perfect: right in the centre of bustling Amsterdam, so most places of interest are within walking distance. The Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum and the Modern Art Museum are less than 5 minutes away.
Nothing but Creativity 
Marcel’s creativity is reflected in every corner of his guesthouse. He gives each room its own unique character, whether it’s with beautiful ceramics, or a surprising design in one of the lavatories. This is a great address if you’re looking for a stimulating alternative to the big, generic, anonymous hotel chains.
