On the edge of the 17th Century Prinsengracht, the famed Dutch canal system UNESCO honors on its World Heritage List, Hotel Seven one Seven began as the home of a wealthy sugar trader. The rear house became a sugar mill, and in 1810 the trader built a voorhuis, or front house, that now welcomes guests to its nine cozy suites named after artists, composers and literary figures – sink into the deep blue elegance of the Von Goethe suite or gaze out over the Prinsengracht from the lofty Picasso suite.

A lovely hotel, excellent service, nothing too much trouble, lovely gifts of soap, chocolate and small room spray , one each evening of our stay. Breakfast continental, good quality, quiche unusual option and nuts for yogurt could be better, a fruit bowl, not fruit salad option. The breakfast waiter was so friendly with perfect service. In my opinion the hotel is a little tired in the entrance and the stairways, our room was very small and not as glossy as the photos, very clean and a lovely bathroom. The throw on the end of the bed was not great , bobbly and in my opinion needs replacing. We were disappointed at being advised by staff that the uber for other guests had been unreliable and offered to order a taxi for us…. This cost 52 euros when we paid at the airport! Our uber from the airport to the hotel cost 26 euros…. !!!!!!!!!! When the driver arrived in a Prada coat we should have know it wasn’t going to be cheap!!!! Check price with hotel staff and I believe the uber would have been ok. A nice hotel in a good location.

Delightful hotel. Staff couldn’t be more helpful and engaging. Perfectly situated to explore Amsterdam. Only caveat are the very steep and narrow stairs which are typical of stairs in Amsterdam houses which this hotel once was. We would stay there again and highly recommend it.

Absolutely brilliant!! The staff, can’t remember everyone’s name but Patrick was brilliant (he has watched a lot of English films), the lady who recommended restaurants, the chap who spoke to us about things to do in the lounge area was just brilliant. So welcoming, nothing a trouble and on hand to support you with your stay. Lovely turn down service of an evening. Breakfast enough to start your day. Great coffee. Thank you, if/when we come back to Amsterdam we will book 717!

I had booked at this hotel well in advance and got a reasonable fare. After a month as the prices elsewhere had gone up they emailed me asking me to accept a 50% price hike (300 euro per night instead of 200). They did not even give me time to reply and cancelled my reservation. I don't know whether they are scammers or simply unprofessional and disorgnized but for sure this is not a reliable hotel. Avoid.
