The hype
Travelers love the industrial-chic vibe and rooftop spa, but often complain about the lack of privacy in the bathrooms.
Volkshotel Amsterdam
$150-250/ ночь
Смело бронируйте, если You want a creative, high-energy base where you can co-work in the lobby, party in the basement, and recover in a rooftop hot tub without leaving the building.
Почему людям нравится
- The 'Badplaats' rooftop mini-spa with hot tubs and sauna is free for guests and has killer city views
- Vibrant social atmosphere with a buzzing lobby workspace (Werkplaats) and rooftop club (Canvas)
- Located directly above Wibautstraat Metro station for instant access to the city center
Краткий обзор: It’s more of a vertical hipster village than a traditional hotel, so expect concrete floors, glass showers, and a lot of laptop-wielding freelancers.
Подтверждено @maurathehypegirl: I honestly didn't want to leave. I'd start my day with coffee in the Werkplaats, crush some work, and then head straight up to the rooftop hot tub for sunset. The vibe is just so cool and creative—it felt like I was living there, not just visiting.

Reality check
The 'cool' factor sometimes outweighs comfort—expect hard concrete floors and a DIY service style rather than plush luxury.
- You are a digital nomad who needs a great co-working space downstairs
- You enjoy a party atmosphere and don't mind a bit of noise
- You want a unique, non-corporate hotel experience with artistic flair
Чистота и уход
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though some reports of missed dust on blinds or windowsills.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and clean, but the glass design means water spots are common. Grout is usually well-maintained.
- Maintenance: Industrial style hides wear well, but some guests report slow drains or worn furniture in older rooms.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality, clean but not luxurious.
- Odors & scents: Generally fresh, though the lobby can smell like coffee and food; party floors might have a faint stale alcohol smell on Sunday mornings.

Can I bring my dog?
Yes, Volkshotel is pet-friendly for a fee of ~€20 per stay (max 2 pets).

Советы инсайдеров

On Sundays from 12:00-18:00, the rooftop spa opens to the public for free, so it gets very crowded—go early or late to avoid the locals.
- ✨
The 'Miss Petite' (XS) rooms sometimes have the sink in the bedroom, not the bathroom.

You can swim in the Amstel River nearby at Park Somerlust if the weather is warm.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The 'sexy shower' is a glass cube that offers full visibility from the bed—awkward for non-couples.
💡The concrete floors are stylish but cold; bring slippers.
💡There is a VAT increase pending for Dutch hotels in 2026 (from 9% to 21%), so expect prices to jump if booking far in advance.
💡The elevators can be slow during peak times because they serve the popular rooftop bar and club.
💡The lobby workspace is very popular with locals, so finding a seat can actually be competitive during the day.
