Great hosts & location for a relaxing city break

Pros: Loved our stay at The Blue Stairs and will return, hosts are fantastic and helped with information on transport, venues, restaurants etc. The property is clean, tidy, quiet and had everything we needed for a relaxing city break, plus has history & character you won’t find in a chain hotel! The kitchen is well equipped for self catering, plus there is space to eat, relax and watch Amsterdam through the large south facing windows. It’s situated 2 minutes walk from tram line 4 which runs from the Central Station through some of the most popular tourist areas, don’t miss Albert Cuyp Market, the street food and vendors are fantastic, well worth the trip. Also close by is the Albert Heijn supermarket, and a little further to a well stocked Jumbo. Bike hire is just around the corner at Black Bikes, plus tram 14 from Frederiksplein takes you to Amserdamse Bos parkrun, if that’s your thing!

Pros: The apartment is well prepared for tourists, it has all you may need. We loved to wake up by the window, open the curtains and see the canal. It is pretty much in the center so we walked everywhere.

Cons: Nothing we did not like.

Glorious apartment in a quintessential canal house with a to-die-for view

Pros: Ideal location on Keizergracht, close to everything and comes with a fabulous view over the canal through the virtually all-glass wall. Isa (super friendly and assists with property management) was waiting for us as planned and handover was seamless. The apartment is extremely well furnished, comfortable, spacious, immaculately clean, quiet and private - I can't think of a single thing to find fault with.

Cons: The only small challenge is the stairs - they are typical for Dutch canal houses - steep, spiral and with small treads - but such stairs are the price that must be paid for the privilege to stay in these sorts of houses.
