Staying a while for the UVA in Amsterdam on a budget w/ certain boundries led me to

Hotel Jansen. A good choice. Rooms and sanitary and especsially the clubrooms were in one word FANTASTIC. Hail to Celine and Klaas, two of the hosts for their never ending hospitallity.

This is Holland and Amsterdam at the utmost best. Special tip: Try there Houmous slices in

the lounge/pub/rest called Mama's.

As the title says - home away from home! I have been staying for a couple of months now and it is definitely a place where you have your own privacy and space but don’t feel lonely since you are surrounded by so many young people. Every restaurant and bar is closed in Amsterdam but we have the opportunity to hang out and mingle at Mama’s! Of course with all the distance rules being respected. A great experience overall!

This is a place you can call home away from home. The rooms are so nice and the staff is the loveliest. If there’s ever a problem, both the mamas staff and the booking office is there to solve them for you. The beds are super comfy and the pillows make you dream sweet dreams. Whenever I go back to visit Amsterdam, this is the place I would choose over any other hotel!

Lovely clean room with a lovely view over the water

Staff were helpful and great food at mamas

Would recommend to stay here

Nice staff, good food, beautiful and unique bedrooms and only good vibes in Hotel Jansen! I would recommend it to everyone! 🙂

Staying at Hotel Jansen has been unreal. The staff are such a great bunch of people, each taking such genuine care in helping out all those under their roof! Jansen is in a great location, super close to the VU, grocery stores, cafe cafes and Vondelpark. I’ve met so many wonderful people here and would definitely recommend Jansen to anyone coming Amsterdam on exchange or as an intern.

I stayed at jansen for four months while studying at uni here and could not have had a better time in Amsterdam! The staff are all such lovely people and are always there to help, give local advice or just chat. I’d recommend Hotel Jansen to anyone- but especially a student or young professional looking to make friends and feel at home in a new city.

Hotel Jansen has a unique gift to make you feel at home no matter who you are or where you come from. A big reason for this are its friendly and helpful staff members who are not only there to fix you a drink, but also offer a listening ear when you feel like talking to someone. The rooms and communal areas are beautifully designed, creating an inspiring ambience throughout the building. The kitchen and laundry facilities are easy to use so you won't have to worry about cooking dinner or washing your clothes. Next to that, I am very thankful for the management's understanding when I asked for my stay to be foreshortened. Their personal attention, as well as the staff's, added great value to the whole experience. Because of Hotel Jansen I am able to look back with fondness on my time in Amsterdam.

Hotel Jansen is a truly special place and I cannot be thankful enough for the opportunity to have stayed there. It was the warmest welcome to the Netherlands that I ever could have asked for; the staff were so friendly and helpful, the room was extremely cozy and had everything I needed, and Mama's was a perfect place to meet up with friends, relax and really made the whole stay feel like a home away from home. In summary, I would highly recommend Hotel Jansen to anyone visiting Amsterdam; be it for a long, or a short stay.

I stayed here for two months for work and enjoyed every minute of it - be it in the cozy, well-decorated, clean room, the nice common areas and kitchens, or the great café Mama's downstairs, while being in touch with the most kind, friendly, and motivated staff (greeting you by name every morning ;). The location of Jansen is great, as are the social activities (including the most amazing yoga class!). For me, this was *the* place to be, regardless of whether I needed some quiet time for myself or wanted to hang out with others. Everything seemed to be made with love and inspired by a great atmosphere 🙂 Thank you all very much and all the best!
