WestViolet

Frank is an excellent host, and the place is well situated for anything you want to do in Amsterdam. Close to the Anne Frank House, the canals, a ton of restaurants and shops, as well as public transportation, I highly recommend a stay in one of their two huge rooms. Breakfasts are just right.

I am writing from the hostel right now, to be honest we came across a place that exceeded our expectations. The hostel is a 10 minute walk from the city center, there are big markets and cafes around it. The room we stayed in is spacious and comfortable on the first floor, it has a balcony, the heaters were on in the evening, we did not get cold, the bathroom is big enough, hot water usage is very good. There is also a refrigerator in the room. You have breakfast in the shared kitchen in the hostel, the manager Frank is extremely attentive, sincere and cheerful. If we were to come again, we would definitely stay in the same place.

Great location. 15 mins walk from Centraal. Jumbo and Albert Hein supermarkets just around the corner. Quite homely compared to a hotel room. Stayed in ground floor Marilyn Monroe room. Spacious and comfortable - could do with nicer chairs. Great bed. Clean room. Nice to have windows at both ends of the room. Frank is an excellent host. Decent breakfast, good options, always a boiled egg ready every morning! Would we stay again? - definitely yes.

Frank is an awesome host, very hospitable, helped us with our luggages and gave us tips on how to go around the city. Communication is great, location wise~ the B&b is close and walkable to everything. Room is huge than the photos, very neat and comfortable, breakfast is awesome! Safe and quiet, Highly recommended! Can’t wait to come back! And meeting Blanca is a plus!

Walking distance and easy to find from the central train station. We had an early flight, but were able to drop our bags and pick up the keys so we were able to get on with our day’s sightseeing. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. We had the room on the second floor that had a cute little balcony. The stairs are steep, so if you have mobility issues, maybe ask for the ground floor room. We loved having the kitchen available to make our breakfasts, it was well stocked with hams, cheese, eggs, breads, cereals etc. Also lovely to come back in the evening and be able to make a cuppa. |It’s located very close to Anne Frank’s house, which is a great landmark, with so much in walking distance. Would recommend and will stay here again when back in Amsterdam.

We were in Amsterdam for three nights and WestViolet was the perfect place for us to stay. It was a fantastic location—felt central and easy to walk everywhere, but the street was still nice and quiet. Our lovely room was immaculately clean, the bed and linens were incredibly comfortable, and the shower was great. The owner, Frank, was very kind and friendly, the ideal host. And the option to have breakfast set us up nicely for our days of exploring—we were even converted to sprinkles on toast and bought some at Jumbo to take home! For other meals, we weren’t wanting for restaurant options in the neighbourhood either. It was a pleasure to stay here and would definitely stay again on future visits.

My husband treated me to a weekend in amsterdam for my birthday last week and we had the most special time here. Frank was so attentive and thoughtful - he really took the time to explain the details about the property locks and breakfast etc - even going so far as to make me birthday pancakes as a surprise. I HAD to leave a review as he really made my birthday extra special and i was so touched by his kindness 💖 would 100% recommend this place to everyone and the location is just a short walk to the centre of town

We stayed at the WestViolet Bed And Breakfast begin of August 2023 and we stayed there for the 3rd time. Frank is a wonderful host, very helpful and his breakfast is delicious. The rooms are big, clean and very nice, with everything you need. His BB ist located at the Jordaan - right at the city center. Grachten, Museums, lovely Restaurants, Bakeries Central Station and Coffeeshops - they are all in walking distance. A charming area with nice people, we felt very safe there! We stayed at the spacious room on the ground floor with a lovely tiny garden and we will be back for sure! If you want to feel the typical dutch way of living, you should stay at the WestViolet!!! We had a great time - again!!! Thank you Frank! :)
