Conscious Hotel Museum Square

We had a wonderful experience staying at the Conscious Hotel Museum Square location. It was my first visit to Amsterdam, so I took my best guest on the location, and boy did I choose well. The hotel is a 5 minutes walk to the Van Gogh and Rijk museums, a 10-minute walk to the lovely Vondelpark, and just 15 minutes to the heart of the city centre.|The room was spacious, quiet, and super clean. Our room overlooked the back garden and had french doors that opened to that space. The bed was large and so comfortable, and came with multiple pillow options! The shower had great pressure and quick heat. I found the bathroom sink a little shallow and oddly placed.|We appreciated having the in-room safe but a small fridge to hold leftovers, and cold drinks would have been welcome. And as we were there for six nights, we could have used more space to unpack our clothes.|Every staff member we had the pleasure to interact with was friendly, helpful, and made it feel like a home away from home. I would highly recommend this hotel!

The location was great and easy to reach from the airport. It only took around 3 minutes to walk to a local supermarket and museums.The room designs and amenities are simple, yet comfortable for a pleasant stay. We booked a family room with one king bed and an extra single bed. However, we were not aware that the bathroom lacks a door separating the shower area from the room.Anyway, the staff was super friendly, and there were clear instructions for check-in and check-out.

Very friendly staff. We arrived late at night due to our flight and had to survive a few more hours in Amsterdam, but the receptionist made an exception for us, allowing us to check into our room early and get some rest! Many thanks to her! The room was on the small side, and since it was on the street side, it was a bit noisy, but we were told this in advance. Great location because you are close to everything and it is very accessible. Breakfast is available at the reception, and they sell a few items such as toothbrushes, etc., all of which are eco-friendly. Highly recommended. I visit Amsterdam regularly, and this is a hotel I would return to!

My stay at Conscious Hotel Museum Square was truly special. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely at home, not just because of the space itself, but because of the energy, kindness, and care of the people who bring this place to life. As it was my first time in Amsterdam, and during a particularly unique holiday season, the warmth and guidance I received meant a great deal to me. The team was not only professional, but deeply humane, attentive, and supportive, especially in helping me navigate a few personal challenges during my stay. That level of care is rare and unforgettable. A heartfelt thank you to Rakha, Monica, and Hatem. Your kindness, presence, and generosity of spirit made this experience far more than just a hotel stay. You created a sense of comfort, belonging, and ease that I will always remember. I left with gratitude, and I would return without hesitation.

Stayed 4 days in this hotel. Great location. Room was pretty big, one large bed (I would say between queen and king size), and one twin size. Separate shower, sink and bathroom. They have breakfast in the lobby for extra, we didn’t eat but looked very fresh. Wine and cheese free from 5-6 pm daily. Super friendly stuff. Room was cleaned daily. Check in and check out was very easy and quick.

This hotel is excellent. Our room was simply furnished but comfortable and spacious. We were welcomed with a complimentary glass of wine and a selection of Dutch cheeses. The breakfast was superb. The location is within a short walking distance of museums and some very good restaurants.

The Conscious hotel is ideal for visiting Amsterdam, offering a welcoming and professional atmosphere. From the moment we arrived, the staff were exceptionally kind, attentive, and supportive, making us feel truly at home. The rooms are modern, immaculate, and comfortable, with a peaceful ambiance that enhances the overall stay. The location is excellent, and every detail, from cleanliness to comfort, has been carefully considered. We would highly recommend this hotel and look forward to returning on our next visit.

There should be a 6 star for this hotel. The entire staff from reception to breakfast to cleaning lady is absolutely wonderful, kind and helpful and that atmosphere beautifuly infiltrates through your entire stay. Beds are amazing, room size are great,, location wise is the best between the Vondelpark, museum plein and of course city centre walking distance. To also witness how nicely and calmly they handled distressed incoming walk-ins whose Eurostar had been canceled, is a reflection of the kindness I described above. A gem of a hotel

Great hotel. Very friendly people. Clean, Smart, Close to US consulate, Rijksmuseum, PC Hoofdstraat, but without the crazy busyness. Highly recommend

We loved this place. We thought everyone was very kind and our room was lovely- and large. The shower was fantastic with some of the best water pressure I've had anywhere. It was tempting to take a couple of showers a day. There is a school near the hotel- so if you sleep late the noise of children might bother you if you don't use earplugs. We are early risers, so it was not a problem. The breakfast was wonderful and served in a beautiful setting. The back patio is really peaceful and pretty- as is the inside eating area. Coffee and tea were delicious. The wine happy hour was a lot of fun. I loved the area. There's a store quite close and of course the symphony is just down the street and the Rijksmuseum is an easy walk. The Vondelpark is very close and we enjoyed a stroll there in the mornings. Lots of wonderful eateries around and a fun (small) farmer's market just a block away. We have stayed in many places in Amsterdam but this place is my favorite. It was the best location for price and the most comfortable and the friendliest.

I had a quick, but nice stay at the Conscious Hotel Museum Square. Its a bit away from downtown, but 10-15 min walk from many museums as well as the tram. They have an all-digital process for check-in and out, but when checking-in, I prefer to deal with a person to address questions etc. Lucky an attendant was available when I was checking-in and she was very accommodating. The room was exactly as advertised! I felt much relieved, as at times pictures can be deceiving. It was spacious, with a sleek modern feel to it. There was a small safe as well as a bar to hang clothing (not a proper closet, which is common in Europe). Note there was no refrigerator or microwave. My room was on the first floor right next to the elevators, which I thought was going to be problematic but I actually didn't hear anything at all (or maybe they had low occupancy at the time?). My only qualm was that the room did not have AC! The receptionist explained that they are a "flat roof building" where the heat is expected to rise, and only the 4th floor rooms have AC. The balcony door does open but since there is no screen, I was weary of bugs and did not keep it open all night. The room was equipped with a fan but I still woke up drenched in sweat.

My family of four had two excellent rooms near one another for a four-night stay to primarily visit the nearby museum district and it did not disappoint. Before I post more thought it is imperative that visitors secure tickets to the art museums in advance. My son-in-law spoke with several guests who arrived without tickets and were unable to see the Vermeer and the Van Gogh exhibits as they were sold out. The museums are very close to the hotel - just a few minutes walk. The Rijks Museum is large and filled with a variety of art. We saw the Vermeer exhibit there. The Van Gogh Museum is among the best I've ever been to. Be prepared for large crowds of photo-taking tourists at all the museums. There is a very convenient underground grocery store right next to the Stedelijk Museum that is fully stocked with whatever you need and the prices were exceptionally low compared to U.S. grocery stores. For example, you will find an ample selection of excellent wines at very low prices. I bought an exceptional red from Spain for 5.99 Euros. Speaking of Euros, you don't need any. Many places will not even accept cash. All you need is a chip card for everything. Tipping was never expected or pressed for. Most taxis to the downtown area (The Anne Frank and the Rembrandt House, for example) were right at 20 Euros each way to and from the hotel. Unless you're a frequent and confident bicycle rider I don't recommend renting one to get around. The locals ride very fast and can be unforgiving if you stray into the bike lane when walking. If art is what you're going for then this has to be the best hotel option for art lovers. I highly recommend it.

I just finished a week at the Conscious Hotel at Museum Square. I had only one problem with the hotel and will mention at the end of this review. The location was excellent for walking to the museums. I have an elderly parent that joined me and she was able to walk to and from the Rijksmuseum and Van Gough Museum. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms had newer fixtures. The shower was large for a European hotel. I enjoyed being able to have breakfast at the hotel prior to venturing out around Amsterdam. Only gripes I had about my stay was the communication when booking and the checking out process. When I initially book the room in January, I didn't get much of a response from the hotel. I did receive a booking number, but not mention of the dates I would be there and the amount. When trying to communicate through their website, I didn't find they were very responsive. It took awhile to get an email confirmation with the dates associated with my reservation. The checking out process should have been simple, but the front desk mixed my room up with a family member. Even after letting them know multiple times, they still couldn't get it right. The other problem I ran into was getting charged twice. I book back in January/February and was charged the full amount for just the room. When I checked out, Conscious Hotel charged again. I tried to contact them via their website, and no response back. I had to call my credit card company to dispute the double charging. My message to the hotel is I had a great time and enjoyed most of my services; however, you need to improve on your administrative functions at the front desk. Your staff struggle with being able to print out receipts, and none of your staff could get my room number correct. I do want to return to your hotel, but you will need to make an effort to apologize for my inconvenience and improve on your reservation check out process.

Not bad~ Loved the smile we got from the hotel concierge when we first checked in around 10pm on a Saturday night. It definitely gave us a positive energy :) and made us want to go out and explore the city right away! The rooms were clean and spacious and the beds were very comfortable. I also liked the complimentary breakfast~ Their sausage was really good and I also appreciated the cold cuts an the cheese~ I do wish that I stayed a little more inland since the museum square was a bit further away from the main area with the canals, but it wasn't too far. The hotel is very close to all the museums which works because you want to go to the museums during the day and slowly walk up to the canal areas later in the day. (The other Conscious hotel in Vondelpark is even further away fyi)

I had an excellent 2-nights stay! The staff is very friendly and helpful, the housekeeper in particular was so energetic and friendly she lit up the room! The breakfast is delicious (all organic), the common area on the ground floor is cosy and perfect for a chilled glass of wine or beer at the end of the day! The room are simple, could do with an update (windows let in some cold air), but are very comfortable and clean! I would definitely stay here again!

Excellent hotel!! Prime location - walking distance to Rijksmuseum, Concert Hall, Van Gogh, ... The hosts are genuinely personable, helpful, affable, engaging. Maya and Colin went out of their way to show us the way of parking sensibly and economically in Amsterdam. Colin recommended some great eating venues, just an all around great guy. Kudos to this hotel and the people who run it effortlessly and paperless-ly!!

Our experience there was delightful. The room was clean and cozy. And the location alongside all the museums was great. But what really made the stay wonderful was the staff. Every single person we interacted with was welcoming, warm and helpful. It was like staying with friends. We loved our stay in Amsterdam and the hotel made that stay even better. Could not recommend it more highly

John Q's review is so comprehensive that I really don't have much to add, but I will say that I enjoyed my two-night stay here and that I didn't mind the location being a little away from the center, particularly since I rented a bike from the hotel (10 euro a day, if I remember correctly) and since I was lucky enough to have in rain during my day. Then again, if you're going to be going out late at night, and you don't want to bike or take a taxi, you'll find that the late-night transit service (regular service ends around 12:30a) isn't ideal for this location.
