I was a bit concerned about booking the Singel after reading some of the reviews. After a three night stay at the hotel, I'd like to keep some of those reviews posted, as it may put some people off and leave the Singel to those willing to take a chance! I'd booked an en suite room, and after the initial... more

We are a couple from Bergen, Norway and we stayed at the picturesque Singel Hotel last week. Because the hotel is situated right in the middle of the city centre at one of the canals of Amsterdam and the buildings along these canals are hundreds of years old we didn't expect a modern, spacious hotel. When we make a citytrip... more

This review is written after quite a few months in consideration... we still have the same point of veiw after 6 months... so this is not a 'rash' posting. My friend and I chose this over the Victoria based on the reviews for the most part. Big mistake. We found this hotel on a star level to be a 1.5-2.... more

We had a wonderful stay here for 3 nights. The room was nice, the beds are very comfortable and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. This is definately thé place to stay in Amsterdam for a short city break! more

Do not stay at this Hotel..it is a dump,it's dirty. The place needs painting, it smells of smoke.Definately not worth the money. I would not recommend it to my worst enemy. We spent three weeks in Europe and this place was our only disappointment. more

Stayed here for 3 nights based on traveller reviews. Kind of disappointing. Staff was friendly but only if you agreed to everything they provided. Booked the room 3 months ago and requested a non smoking room canal view. Checked in and I can understand no canal view but they gave us a tiny worn out, smoking room in the basement.... more

I was in Amsterdam this past week for a few night stay celebrating a birthday and chose to stay at the Singel because it appeared, from the reviews, to be exactly what I was looking for: a clean place with a great location. While the location was ok, not great and will never stay in that area of Amsterdam again,... more
