Banks Mansion - Amsterdam

Look closely at the photo - it's taken at night for a reason. Location isn't bad but that's about the best I can say. The hotel is very pricey and we expected a lot more. This is an average hotel - the price difference covers the free booze. Since we don't drink, we were disappointed overall. Additionally, there was a tour bus full of women - booked […] a year in advance so we were told - hence we were treated like second class citizens all the way around including having to share a bed because all the twins were "reserved".

We stayed at the Banks Mansion over the Easter break and we had a wonderful time from start to finish. The hotel is in a great location, central with easy access to all the key areas and sights. The staff were exceptionally friendly and the bar was open to free drinks and nibbles the entire duration of stay which made it great when getting back to […] the hotel after a busy day experiencing Amsterdam. We would definitely stay here again and would definitely recommend the hotel. Most memorable thing about the hotel was the lovely staff. Thanks for a wonderful stay. Læs mere

I love Amsterdam and I love it even more now that I've found the Banks Mansion Hotel. Perfectly located near Rembrandt Plein, easy walk to the must-see sites and great dining. Comfortable room. Friendly, professional staff. And most appreciate the all-inclusive concept (drinks, snacks, breakfast included in price of room). The lounge is a perfect area […] to relax in front of the fire with a complimentary glass of wine, cheese and crackers and the latest magazine. Step outside and you're on one of the inner canals lined with impressive homes. Really wonderful experience. Læs mere

The staff is very friendly, courteous,and helpful. They were updating the satellite, so there was a couple of days with out TV. However there was sufficient notification and alternative viewing via DVDs from the hotel. HD viewing was available after completion and more channels to choose from if that is what you like. I was there for vacation and did […] not watch much TV. There is scooter to rent if you want to use for city travel if you don't like public transportation or walking, bicycle rentals are close by. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend for anyone that wants to stay in Amsterdam. The breakfast kitchen is fantastic, European style. Læs mere

Horrible! I never actually made it to the hotel as my travel plans were cancelled from the states due to weather over Christmas. Every other place I had reservations at completely understood and refunded all of my money, however this little place decided not to even though their airport was shut down and there was no way I could get into the country. […] I would never recommend this place and when I go back you can count on me not staying here. For such a small hotel you think they would have been a lot more understanding. I have told every friend and family member I know not to stay here and being the frequent traveler, you can bet they will be missing out on a lot of future business. Læs mere

The main advantages here are the location and the free bar and snacks. The room was only average but the hotel is very well staffed and I dont regret staying here. Just be aware the rooms are not posh.

The hotel is the only all-inclusive hotel in the city. It is a new concept and it works well. Located on Herengracht (in the Gentleman's District it is on what the Dutch say is the best canal in the the city and convenient for all the major attractions The hotel itself is Art-Deco in style, very very clean and the rooms are so very comfortable. The […] beds and the pillows are to die for. The Living Room is located by the reception area and is a pleasant area where you can sit and relax and enjoy your free hot/cold drinks, alcoholic and non-alcoholic. In the afternoon drinks are accompanied by snacks, like little cakes, cheese, nuts, crisps and dips. The All-Inclusive finishes each evening at 2am in the morning. So that should satisfy most people. Staff at the hotel are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. You are allowed to to store your luggage there after check out and collect it later at no extra cost which is very handy. Free wi-fi and internet is also available complete with printing facilities. Breakfast is plentiful with lots of choice and is available until 11am on Sundays. Great for those who need a lie in after a heavy Saturday night. There is only one thing that was disappointing unless you have a suite there are no tea/coffee making facilities in the standard deluxe rooms you have to go down to the Living Room and take it to your room. Tea/coffee making facilities are only available in the suites. However, all rooms have a free mini bar with soft drinks in and decanters of whiskey, gin and brandy. All in all a fabulous hotel which I would highly recommend. Læs mere

A wonderfully comfortable place to stay in central Amsterdam. A great all inclusive formula which is a unique touch. Simply great for a weekend break.

Highly recommended place to stay.

the best hotel in the world

An unexpected absolute gem of a hotel right in the centre of Amsterdam - all places of note well within walking distance with plenty to capture your interest on route- not to mention a plethora of cafes, bars should you feel the need .

Boutique hotel, central location staff very welcoming rooms comfortable, good breakfast, hotel lounge felt like being in a very comfortable sitting room. Best feature, serve yourself bar in the lounge. All premium spirits, wines and beers included in your hotel rate. Excellent idea though not abused.

The Banks Mansion is what every small, mid-priced hotel should aspire to. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, our room was cozy and comfortable, and the location was within walking distance of everything. However, what puts this hotel over-the-top is the wonderful breakfast, afternoon wine and cheese, and around the clock full assortment of […] beverages which are all complimentary. At this price point, you rarely see these amenities included in the price of the room. The Banks Mansion is now on our permanent go-to llist for both business and personal travel. Læs mere

This hotel is just several blocks from 2 different tram stops that will get you anywhere in AMS easily. The hotel was extremely comfortable w/ very nice beds, complimentary wine/beer/cocktails and snacks. Breakfast was good and plentiful. I was there on business so I paid for wireless internet, but complimentary computers were available in the lobby. […] For Europe, the room was large and comfortable. I will stay here again! Læs mere

We spent 4 nights i Amsterdam as part of a longer trip and really enjoyed our stay at the Banks Mansion! It was a great location for touring the city and we were able to walk everywhere we had planned to visit. There are numerous restaurants easily within walking distance and the breakfast at the hotel was lovely each day. Having cocktail hour with […] some treats each evening was really nice upon return to the hotel after a long day of exploring!! The drinks always available in the living room and in your room were also a wonderful benefit. The staff were so attentive, friendly and helpful and we took advantage of their excellent restaurant advice. We rented the hotel Vespa one day and really enjoyed riding around the canals. Læs mere

The Banks Mansion staff were extraordinarily pleasant and helpful. The room was smaller than what you might get in the U.S. but that was to be expected. The decor is very nice and they give you everything you need to make your stay pleasant. Included in the price is breakfast in the morning (be sure to ask for a Dutch pancake!) and all alcohol. There […] is a bar in your room and a bar downstairs, all of which is included in the price of your room. I would definitely stay there again! Læs mere

The hotel is located in the Southern Canal Belt, right next to the flower market and a short walk from all the Amsterdam sights you probably plan to see. Best of all, the hotel is all-inclusive. Free drinks (so nice, since a bottle of water in a restaurant is 3+ euros and very small), including flat and sparkling water, fanta, and 3 kinds of alcohols. […] Free mini-bar in the room. Free sausage and cheese almost all day--free cookies in the morning. Free wine in the afternoons. Free, delicious breakfast with lots of choices! The only drawback to the rooms is that the shower is pretty small--but the bed is comfortable, the rooms are decent-sized for Europe, and the ambiance is very pleasant. This is by far the best hotel we stayed in on our trip. I couldn't recommend it highly enough. Læs mere

Fantastic location about 10 minutes from Central Station. Staff was extremely nice and friendly. As an added bonus, soft and hard drinks were included in our package. Would stay here again in a heart beat.

Check in was terrible. Girl at front desk couldn't find reservation after I showed her the email and confirmation page/number from hotels.com. FREE drinks at the minibar. Drinks in Europe are expensive, so that was delightful. Soft drinks that Americans take for granted are very expensive. 4 euros at a sit down restaurant! Room is pretty small. Enough […] for two large suitcases and a little bit of moving. It's very very cramped. Two people -- big enough. Three's company. Decent location, but everything in the area closes at 6 (except for a handful of cafes). If you go in the area closer to the train station, those stores and restaurants stay open. A decent place. 20-30 minute walk to the Central train station, otherwise you can take the tram. Læs mere

We chose Banks Mansion off the internet and felt we made the perfect decision. The hotel was extremely well located, the staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was immaculate and well-appointed, and the all-inclusive feature was the most complete we've ever experienced. The availability of cold beverages in the lobby cooler, wine and cheese in […] the afternoons, and snacks at any hour of the day simply complimented an extraordinary daily breakfast offering. Also, the concierge helped us with tickets to the Anne Frank house and gave clear information about other sites we wished to visit. We would highly recommend this hotel to any Amsterdam visitors! We had an amazing time. Læs mere

Warm. cordial staff made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Relaxing environment in a good location to most main attractions in the city. The home cooked breakfast was excellent. Our room was very comfortable. However, the highlight of our three night stay was the young & exuberant staff that aimed to please and honor every request. The complimentary […] snacks & beverages were a real plus. We would return to this lovely hotel when ever we visited Amsterdam again. Læs mere

Absolutely amazing hotel!

After reading the reviews, I stayed at this hotel with my wife for 2 nights. The room, and the hotel itself, was worn and old looking. The carpets have a very loud and colourful geometric shape that looks like a pattern from the 1960's. The bed was hard and uncomfortable for me (personal thing I guess). There was a decanter of cognac, whisky and gin […] in the room. The minibar was slim pickings. There is no wine in the room at all (our preferred drink) and only one coke, one diet coke, etc and it was never restocked. The bar in the lobby has wine, champagne, beer, soft drinks, water, etc. Also, each evening they did serve some cheese and bread. For us, since we are not big drinkers, the hotel was not worth the expensive price tag. I would prefer a nicer...much cleaner room and pay for my drinks. Læs mere

Friendly, welcoming staff! Pamela met us & came out from behind the desk to greet us & aqquaint us with the hotel. There was a welcoming fire in the fireplace and while housekeeping did a last minute check on our room we had welcoming bottles of water. We were shown to our room within minutes even though it was only 11am & no extra charge. This is an […] all inclusive hotel. The drinks, snacks, coffee, cookies, apps & breakfast are included. Beds were great, bath was wonderful with soaking tub & seperate shower. The bath was private, no glass wall. Brandy, whiskey or gin in decanters on a small bar & snacks/drinks in the minibar. Patrick, pointed us in the right direction for shopping. Very nice staff at this hotel. We had a brandy before walking to a small restaurant just out the door and to the right called "Get toGether". Very nice staff, food & reasonalby priced. Great location. We had breakfast in our room and called down for a taxi when leaving our room. When came into the lobby, the cabbie meet us at the desk & loaded our luggage. Taxi to & from airport 51 to 52 Euros. To sum it up in one word, "Excellent". Læs mere

How welcoming and how great is the complimentary mini bar and lobby full bar. The staff is so helpful. Has a "can-do" attitude.

All I have to say is complimentary mini bar and complimentary full bar in lobby!!!!!!!! Staff very kind, patient and willing to go the extra mile to help.

Banks Mansion is an excellent hotel in a great location - between the flower market and museum district. The staff were very helpful, recommending good restaurants and making reservations. The free minibar and complementary drinks/snacks is a superb idea and ideal after a long day of sightseeing. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone […] looking for a friendly and relaxing place to stay in Amsterdam. Læs mere

Mycket trevligt hotell, man kände sig väldigt omhändertagen. Bra läge, nära till allt. Bonus med snacks o bar på eftermiddagen - bra när man reser med ständigt hungriga tonåringar :) Rekommenderas varmt!

L'emplacement de l'hôtel est idéal et permet de combiner un séjour au calme avec la proximité de tous les monuments/lieux de visite. L'accueil est d'excellente qualité et le personnel de très bon conseil sur les visites à réaliser et les meilleurs itinéraires

Ett hotell som möjligen kan vara lte dyrt men som har massor med fördelar. Läget är nog det bästa i hela Amsterdam tycker vi , när det liggeer precis mellan det något kaotiska centrala delarna och det romantiska kanalområdet med närhet till flera fina restauranger. Frukostbuffen är något av det bästa jag fått på många år. Att fritt trådlöst internet […] ingår tillsammans med fri minibar och ett riktigt "barskåp" gör inte saken mindre värd. Den utbyggda receptionen med kaffe,The öl och vin som finns uppdukat hela dagarna gör trevnaden ännu större. Personalen som alltid finns närvarande är mycket hjälpsam. Tack för ett resemionne!

Et rent og koselig hotell med hyggelig betjening og god service. Frokosten var i utgangspunktet enkel, men med en artig kokk som fikset eggeomelett etter våre ønsker, samt nydelige pannekaker savnet vi ikke noe. Vi reiser gjerne tilbake, og anbefaler andre å sjekke inn på akkurat dette hotellet om de ønsker et rolig utgangspunkt i en ellers travel  […] by. Læs mere

Vi kan uten forbehold anbefale dette hotellet. Perfekt beliggenhet i forhold til severdigheter, shopping, restauranter og byvandring i alle retninger. Gangavstand til det meste. Vennlige og hjelpsomme ansatte. Veldig bra frokost der kokken lager speilegg, eggerøre eller omelett mens man venter. Og utrolig, men sant: fri bar og minibuffet i lobbyen og […] fri minibar på rommet. Koselig lobby. Klarer ikke å finne noe negativt å si. Her vil vi garantert bo ved vårt neste besøk i Amsterdam.

Svært hyggelig betjening og perfekt beliggenhet.

Meget pent og behagelig hotell med alt av drikke,internett,tv og frokost inkl i en meget tilfredstillende døgnpris. Veldig sentralt og god hjelp å få av personalet til det vi måtte ønske. Helt klart og anbefale til par som vil på en romantisk tur å bo på et rolig og sjarmerende hotell.

Het hotel heeft een goede prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. Tegenover het hotel ligt een café restaurant Pe king; is aan te bevelen. Wat wel vervelend is, dat het hotel een borg vraagt van 50 euro. Dan is het ook gewenst dat de kamer eerst goedgekeurd wordt door het personeel want op deze manier kan het zomaar gebeuren dat je aangeslagen wordt voor iets wat […] er nooit is geweest! Læs mere

zwischen innenstadt und grachtengürtel gelegenes hotel. zu fuß vom hbf in ca 20 minuten zu erreichen. wir hatten ein zimmer zur straße, was aber dank gut isolierter fenster kein problem war. wir kommen bestimmt wieder nach amsterdam und werden bestimmt wieder dort einchecken.

Un super hôtel, l'équipe est jeune et dynamique, toujours disponible pour nous aider. L'hôtel est situé au coeur de la ville, parfait pour un weekend romantique. Les chambres étaient spacieuses et propres. Le petit déjeuner copieux.
