Italy, Aug 2009
hotel caratteristico con scala ripida e pavimenti in legno e moquette. il personale è stato sempre gentile e paziente, pulizia e cambio asciugamani ogni giorno, colazione a buffet sostanziosa e varia, zona silenziosissima (come quasi tutta la città). considerando il costo degli hotel ad amsterdam, il rapporto qualità-prezzo del Kap è ottimo...consigliatissimo!

A quite shabby place. The price was too high compared to the quality of the hotel. And the room was extremely small.

Surprisingly nice stay. Did not go with huge expectations as I booked one of the smaller rooms for a night but found it good for a couple of lads sightseeing and having a few drinks. Being the wrong side of 30 I felt that it offered a quiet nights sleep and a filling breakfast in the morn. Great location for some of the museams and bike hire available too, possibly I would be less likely to take a partner.

I stayed in room #6, 2nd floor. Be aware: 1: no elevator and very steep staircase; potentially a problem if you carry large or heavy bags. 2: toilets outside the room. 3: 5% surcharge if you pay with credit card. Otherwise, a reasonable price for Amsterdam and convenient location. Quiet area.

L'hotel non è proprio di lusso,le camere non certo eleganti molto sfruttate a discapito della freschezza richiedono un discreto spirito di adattamento. Le scale sono ripidissime,addirittura il nostro corgy non era in grado di salirle e doveva essere preso in braccio. Avevamo letto nei commenti ed eravamo preparati ma sconsiglio a persone anziane o con problemi di vertigini! L'hotel è ricavato da una autentica abitazione del centro storico, quindi impossibile da modificare. Questi gli aspetti negativi, ma gli aspetti positivi hanno di gran lunga superato le aspettative, sia io che la mia famiglia-nota bene: 2 ad, 2 rag.11/14 anni + un cane, io ag.di viaggio mio marito chirurgo, abituati a viaggiare- ci siamo trovati più che bene al Kap, nella nostra quadrupla con servizi privati. Alcuni es.: prenotazione corretta e prezzo confermato, personale molto disponibile, 1a colaz. abbondante con il sole servita in piccolo grazioso giardino, POSIZIONE PERFETTA per raggiungere a piedi i musei; il battello parte dal canale dietro l'angolo, inoltre il quartiere è residenziale e la via è tranquillissima e ricca di appartamenti eleganti e con un piccolo, bellissimo parco lungo il canale dove era bello passeggiare la sera per l'ultima uscitina del cane. Piazza Dam si trova a 10 minuti a piedi ma l'hotel offre bici a noleggio, ristoranti di tutte le nazionalità e di buona/ottima qualità si trovano nel raggio di qualche min.a piedi. Utilissimo il servizio di garage, considerato che parcheggiare qui costa circa 48 euro al giorno: una telefonata dalla reception e dopo solo 10 min. un addetto è venuto a ritirarla e ce l'ha riportata dopo 3 giorni davanti all'hotel, puntualissimo all'ora decisa da noi, per 70 euro in totale. Circa il prezzo, la tariffa del Kap era una delle più economiche tra gli hotels di pari categoria! Anche per merito di questa sistemazione ci siamo proprio goduti la città, bellissima e vivibilissima.

L'accoglienza all'Hotel è stata molto buona.Sono arrivata con il mio ragazzo all' una di notte e ci hanno accolto subito e cordialmente. Le camere sono un pò piccole, e la pulizia del bagno non era eccellente. Però è vicino al centro e di fronte passano i tram che portano alla stazione centrale.

This place was a real disappointment. The room was dingy, there was a shared toilet, and it didn't feel very secure. The mattress was not good, I kept sliding down to one side. I had just spent a few nights in a really nice, clean 3-star hotel and had to change here because of the price, but I was really dropping down several levels in quality. They also wanted to add 5% to my bill because I wanted to pay by credit card! So I had to go out and find an ATM. The place was old and dark and the room was unwelcoming - and that steep staircase was treacherous with luggage!

You get what you pay for, practically. This is no fancy hotel and I wouldn't advice it if you're a picky, comfort-loving traveler. The rooms were narrow and ours didn't have a toilet, which was fine for a one-night permanence, but would have been quite unpleasant otherwise. The guy at the reception seemed high or something (he adviced us a restaurant and when we asked what kind of food it was, he said he didn't know...). Also, watch out for the stairs, they are quite dangerous and there's no elevator, just remember this in case you have some big luggage.

Breakfast was minimal. There are almost no public spaces indoors except for the breakfast area, though a very attractive garden seems to be available in warmer weather. No concierge service at all. In short, you get what you pay for.

We have stayed at the Kap hotel for 4 nights and we were positively surprised - very good breakfast, clean big room and bad, very friendly staff. Walking distance to the most places of attraction. And so quite small street : )

Room small and old. Hotel in a quiet environment. Very comfortable (but small) garden with tables and chairs. Well situated near museums and centrum. Many trams but a few far from train and underground.

Enjoyed the stay, but had to carry 2 suitcases up 3 very narrow steep flights of stairs. phew!! No initial help offered. The toilet/shower area smelt a bit and it was noisy one night until the early hours of the morning, which was annoying as I had to be up early for a flight back to UK. The staff however were very helpful and considerate.

You will need a GPS or hire a taxi(even our taxi needed a GPS) to find this hotel if you dont know the area well. It is a little hard to find on your own. The room was clean and the service we got was great! Rooms are small for the single I stayed in and stairs are very steep. I would recommend if you drive to buy a 24hr parking ticket from Kap hotel and take the tram into the city center. By tram the center is only 3-4 stops from the hotel. Plenty of eating and drinking places within walking distance from the hotel. Hotel staff was very helpful in telling us were we could go and even provided us with maps and information. Overall our experience at this hotel was a good one!

A splendid little hotel. It's well-located in a completely quiet street and, once you've negotiated the traditionally steep Dutch stairs, you'll find large and well-appointed double rooms (the single room I saw looked less inviting). The coolest about the place is the breakfast room, which is much classier than you'd expect in a hotel of this kind, and boasts a great selection of food. The owner was a nice chap, too. If you're looking for an inexpensive hotel and nothing terribly fancy, I'd go for Hotel Kap.

Hotel Kap is on a quiet street in a very nice part of Amsterdam about 8-10 minutes on foot from Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum and about about 12-15 min. south from the train station by streetcar. It is more convenient, though, to take the Connexxion airport shuttle to the hotel rather than the train and the streetcar especially with heavier luggage. On the other side from the hotel (opposite from the two museums) is a beautiful park (Vondelpark). In the hotel, the breakfast room and the adjacent little garden were really nice. Breakfast was very good and plentiful and the staff was pleasant and helpful. The stairs were steep but that seems to be the norm in Amsterdam, I think, the room was a little smaller than I expected but it had its own shower corner and I only shared the toilet with probably only one other room and the toilet one was always in clean condition. The room itself was clean even though it did not look quite the same as on the picture but was fairly close to it. The window in the room could have been in a better working condition, it was hard to lift it up but it was not a major issue for me. Overall - a good choice of accommodation.

Very nice, inexpensive, and simple accomodation. The reception was friendly. Breakfast is ample and can be eaten in a nice outdoor garden. Our room was on the third floor, there was no elevator, and the stairs are quite narrow. An annoyance is that there is an extra 5% charge for credit cards that does not seem to appear in the web listings.

This was a great place to stay! The location was excellent. We were close to everything and the street that Hotel Kap is on is very nice, clean and quiet. Our bathroom was newly remodeled so it was nice and clean. The beds were sooo comfortable too which is unusual in a hotel. Breakfast was great. The hotel was always ready and willing to give us directions we needed and gave us some great ideas of things to do. We went with another couple and had cheese and wine in our room added and had them add the Chocolate Suprise to our friends room as a treat and boy was it a treat!!! They gave us so many delicious chocolates, 3 different kinds of cheese, crackers, wine it was soooo good especially after 12 hours of traveling its a really nice treat to have. They really did it wonderfully. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanted to travel to Amsterdam and do not want to pay 200-300 Euro a night. Great value for the money.

Buon rapporto qualità prezzo, anche se l'Hotel è senza pretese. Zona tranquilla e ben servita da mezzi pubblici. Grave pecca il fatto che hanno accettato la carta di credito a condizione che venisse maggiorato il prezzo del 5%. Questo non è corretto.
