Rietvelt Loft

Very good self catering accommodation with helpful owner. Would happily go again.

We had four nights here for our Amsterdam stay. It's about a 15/20 min. tram ride out of the very centre, less to the Museum Quarter in a quiet residential location. Tram route No. 2 is about a 5 minute walk away and runs frequently. Before arrival the hosts e-mail you with instructions on how to get there, and you don;t need to head to the Central Station (Lelyland is closer then bus 62). The Loft was beautifully presented and comfortable and there is a rooftop patio you can use. It is advertised as kind of bed and breakfast: we were provided with fridge of provisions plus bread, coffee and a bottle wine, which enabled us to make cater for ourselves in the morning. We also used the small kitchen to cook a couple of evenings for which it was fine. Transport tip: if you buy the I Amsterdam card you get it included. If not, get the 24/48/72/96... hour GVB ticket when you arrive. 96 was perfect for us from when we caught the first bus to when we headed home, at 21.50 Euros. The only point to mention is that if you can't manage three flights of fairly tight, steep stairs with your luggage to get to the Loft, book the ground floor instead!

Birthday get away, to relax from heavy work loads. Perfect facilities and great location just a short distance from central Amsterdam and Vondel park. Warm and informative welcome from our host with thoughtful gestures of fridge with essentials plus a lovely cake waiting on our second day. Absolutely perfect and highly recommend.

Fantastic place to stay, very clean and spacious. It was lovely to be able to sit in the terrace eating breakfast. The owner was lovely and was happy to answer any of our questions. The filled fridge was a welcome bonus! The loft is in a great location, and only a 3 minute walk from the main tram line. Its also not far to walk to the amazing Vondelpark. I would definitely stay here again.

Highly recommend this loft! Very clean and comfortable with a stocked fridge, which we did not expect. The location is not in walking distance to the city center, but access to public transportation is nearby. Rieleke was very sweet and more than accommodating, providing us with recommendations and tips on navigating our way throughout the city. Overall, perfect place for a short stay!
