Hans Brinker Budget Hotel in Amsterdam, Nederlanderna

The Hans-Brinker is one of Amsterdam’s most famous hostels...also known as 'The Most XXXclusive Budget Hotel'. Here you will find no parking, no sauna, no bellboys, no air conditioning, no minibars, no room service....but you will find clean basic rooms in the centre of Amsterdam.

We’re located at the Kerkstraat. It's a nice street in Amsterdam close to the lively square of Leidseplein. We’re in the middle of the city centre, where many bars, restaurants and clubs are located!

Our dorm rooms are simple with different numbers of beds in the different rooms. Each bedroom has a toilet and shower room attached to it. The quality of the showers are questionable, but they do normally work. The rooms have lockers for each bed.

The ground floor of the hostel consists of different common spaces plus 24-hour reception and a free luggage room. There’s also a big chill area with bar and restaurant. There are no kitchens for personal cooking, but our restaurant offers meals for a normal price. There is also a disco downstairs that stays open till 3 or 4 in the morning. Free internet is also available in the basement. There is a smoking area outside and inside the hostel.

In short, this is a very good money-for-value hostel and promises a very pleasant stay and a good and happy feeling for the duration of your stay. We would happily recommend it to anyone.
