The Social Hub Amsterdam City

The room was nice and spacious. The service was good. There was well equipped gym. Ample indoor space for the leisure time. The restaurant was good and the menu was good. The front desk team was always making good effort to help the guests.

Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by a friendly and accommodating staff member. Before booking, we requested a room with a bath, and we were pleased to find that our request was honored. The room, while a standard size, featured several thoughtful touches that brought a smile to our faces, such as a handwritten welcome note, chocolates, and a few delightful surprises that I won’t spoil for you. The hotel’s vibe is primarily geared toward young adults, but as a couple in our 40s, we felt completely welcomed and at ease. The location is fantastic—just steps from the metro station, with only three stops to the city center and four to Centraal Station. Trains are frequent, arriving every few minutes. The surrounding area also offers excellent amenities, including a well-stocked supermarket, wonderful restaurants (Veganeese was a delightful surprise), and vibrant bars, such as the hotel's own bar and the Canvas bar across the street, which boasts stunning city views. We took advantage of the beautiful weather and walked back to Centraal Station, enjoying a scenic 30-35 minute stroll through the charming streets of Amsterdam.

Amazing building, even better staff, every single member we spoke with were so helpful and friendly. When we had to move rooms, they couldn’t have made us feel more at ease.

I visit Amsterdam a few times every year and have stayed in many different hotels, but for the last 4–5 years, The Social Hub has been my go-to place. This year, the hotel was under renovation, which caused a bit of inconvenience at first. But when I shared my experience with the staff after the first night, they immediately moved us to another room—and we absolutely loved the bathroom in the new one. The location is just perfect. It’s away from the chaos of the city but still super close to everywhere you want to be. We usually spend time around Leidsplein and Dam, and it’s just a quick 10–15 minute ride. Check-in and check-out are always smooth, and the staff is consistently kind and helpful. What I love most about this hotel is the attention they give to the little things. Everything—from what you see to what you use—feels carefully designed and intentional. They never settle for just standard; they add a personal, thoughtful touch to every detail, even the packaging. It just feels right.

The breakfast was really value for money if someone use to eat at that time of day. Eating in Amsterdam is generally expensive. The open space rest area (hotel lobby) was unusual but very interesting and lovely. People use to play ping-pong, billiard. We used to play cards. The cleaning lady left a note in our room, telling us that she didnt clean the bed, because we have left some personal belongings on it. That made us a good impression. All our claims were satisfied thanks to the very helpful staff. Bravo to all of you.
