There is no elevator, and the stairs are quite steep, which can be a struggle getting luggage up to the fourth floor. But we enjoyed the workout.

We loved the location! It's perfectly located so you can easily get out and explore the City. The tram drops you off immediately in front of the hotel, which is great on a rainy day!

We did not mind this and we had very little luggage, its good to know you have to climb up 3 flights of stairs.

Perfect location. Budget friendly.

Not really a con, but you have to be okay with steep, narrow stairs here. If you have really oversized, heavy luggage or are uncomfortable with stairs, you might give it a second thought.

The staff here are amazing and the rooms are a great value for the area. The breakfast is also fantastic, along with the evening cheese snack and options for beverages.

Shower was small but more than efficient with hot water. Under the bed on the floor was quite dirty (saw when dropped AirPod).

We did not partake in the breakfast because we wanted to explore city options. But, the breakfast, via cafe on main floor, smelt amazing each morning. Free coffee/tea and pastry was a nice perk. Coffee was delicious. Alcohol was available. Staff were very friendly. Very convenient to travel city via metro. There is one metro stop just outside the front door and 2 more within 3-5min walk. Late night food options very close by. Convenience store 10 min walk. Thank you Ed and Martin! Bed was very comfortable. Reading lamps were excellent.

Kind, helpful and welcoming host. I only stayed for one night, but would definitely visit again. Comfortable bed, great location. Jacky melted my heart and the staff made me feel at home.

I can see this property might not be for everyone. The staircase is the steepest I have ever seen but that’s the way these old Amsterdam houses were built. The rooms are very small. We had two hand luggage suitcases and once we opened them up there was no room to move. There is a wardrobe we could have used but seen as we were only there for one night, we didn’t feel like unpacking. The bathroom is clean and nice, but once again, very small. Despite this, we would 1000% stay again for the staff and the location.

Excellent location walking distance from restaurants, shopping, and all the tourist attractions. What sets this property apart is the staff! They make you feel so welcome, they are very helpful and the warm atmosphere they create is so genuine, it makes you feel at home. Traveling with my teenage daughter, I enjoyed hanging out downstairs, reading a book with a free cup of coffee and a stoopwafel, to give my teenager some alone time.

It’s our second time staying in La Boheme. We love the location, it’s very close to tram lines and it’s central. We have 3 cats of our own so we’re always happy to stay in a place that has a resident cat. The reception area is very cosy and comfortable. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. We arrived very early and our room wasn’t ready, but the staff were very accommodating and let us shower and get ready until our room was ready.

We had a wonderful family stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was warm and cozy. The location is perfect — very close to the city center, with plenty of cafes and restaurants around. In the evenings, we loved taking a short 5-minute walk to enjoy a drink and unwind after a full day of exploring. It was the perfect place to relax and feel at home in Amsterdam. Highly recommended!

Very noisy on the streets until 2 am on week days. Noise comes from the Expo Melkweg people who stay drinking outside until late. Not something La Boheme can control but perhaps it is a good idea to report noise during quiet hours to the police.

Friendly staff, lovely cat at reception. Delicious breakfast and food options by reception. Quiet hotel: very private and comfortable. Lovely Amsterdam building and excellent locations. The rooms are comfortable albeit small if you have the attic rooms. The toiletries provided are good quality, good water pressure in the shower. Good WiFi. Good price for the location.

Very very steep narrow stairs. I booked a double room but there’s absolutely no way 2 people could’ve comfortably fit in there - the bathroom was so small that anyone taller than me (5’7”) would for sure hit their head

Centrally located and close to train stops and restaurants

The location can get noisy on weekend evenings especially in summer when you want to leave the windows open for some cool air. The staff on the second evening were cold, distant and distracted. In the name of cheese tasting they gave us one cheese each. The bathroom is really small and the stairs are steep and narrow with no lift.

The location was wonderful in terms of connectivity. We enjoyed the breakfast and cheese tasting in the evenings. Staff (especially on day 1) were friendly and shared many tips and recommendations which were helpful.

The location was fabulous. One is walking distance from all the museums, shopping districts and parks. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I stayed in the single room with a shared bathroom and it was always very clean and comfortable. My only tip is to bring some ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper as the summer nights can be lively, as it should be on a summers night. But it is beautiful and quiet later into the night. Thanks very much to all staff and I will definitely be back again for another stay.

A bit over priced!

Great location, super friendly staff, lovely clean, bright and airy room.

It was very basic. Very small room with simple furniture and no extras. Several USB ports not working. Street a bit noisy at night on second floor. Had to keep window open as no AC.

Location was incredible. Close to everything including tram lines. Nothing in Amsterdam more than 20 minutes away. Very accommodating staff. Beds comfortable. Hot water hot. Good storage for clothes, etc.

The bed… but I have a lot of neck problems. No place like home I guess

I did not realize when I booked, but the location is excellent. It was close to most places we wanted to visit.

The stairs were super tiny and the location can be a little quiet walking home. I didn't have any issues with this though!

The staff was so charming and king, great for solo travel.

That my single room was in the basement but it did look out to a sitting area. The Internet was not working apparently because of street construction. They did give me drink vouchers but I didn’t have a chance to use them. Although I paid for breakfast, I could not have the breakfast because the breakfast didn’t start until 8:00. I had to leave earlier because of the tour I booked. The breakfast such start at least at 7:00.

The location

Amazing staff. So helpful and personable. They happily stored our luggage at both ends of our trip (we arrived early and left late). Friendly with our teenagers. Great advice on restaurants and things to do.

The only challenge was the very narrow, turning staircase that we had to haul our luggage up to get to our room. However, the listing on Booking clearly explained that there was no elevator in the building and the young (and very helpful) staff took pity on us older folks and gave us a hand on the way out. We, however, managed to get our bags up on our own, but if you are in any way mobility challenged, this could be a difficulty.

The location of this lovely inn was perfect for our visit to Amsterdam with our goal of spending a full day at the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum - both within walking distance. The breakfast each morning was delicious - coffee, pancakes, eggs, yogurt, fruit, delicious pastries - we couldn't have asked for more and quite reasonably priced. The room was clean, had a lovely window overlooking the street and the theater across the way, and we were almost sad to leave to embark on our Viking River cruise. In all, La Boheme was the perfect place to start our European vacation.
