We stayed at The Collector for two nights at the end of a cruise.  I cannot think of a better place to stay in Amsterdam.  It is in a convenient location easily accessible to the tram, the Vondelpark, and the Museums.  The B&B has interesting collections to peruse.  Our room was very large and comfortable after the small rooms on...

I went back to Amsterdam from 27 April to 7 May for Queen's Day and to see the tulips. My timing was very good for the tulips as they were in full perfection at the time of my visit. Where to stay is never a difficult decision for me. This was my third time staying at "The Collector" and if... More

Best place to stay in Amsterdam, decor was amazing and interesting and facilities were brilliant. Excellent value for money and although the owner was away, we were looked after very well (even with a rather noisy 2 year old). The location is second to none, in a safe part of Amsterdam close to the museums and really easy to navigate... More

I chose The Collector based on the reviews here and was delighted with our stay. Karel and his assistant were wonderful and helpful. The B&B was very centrally located (take Connexxion bus 197 from the airport and you're dropped off 50 meters from the B & B; tram #16 stops right outside, connecting you to the city, and it's a...

We booked The Collector from a recommendation and were certainly not disappointed. It was very comfortable and homely with flowers in our room. Our room was located at the front with our own balcony. The bathroom was very nice and clean. Clean towels were left for us every day. We enjoyed our breakfasts,cereals, eggs, pancakes, cheese, meat and bread which... More

I stayed for one night with my daughter. The owner Karel was excellent to communicate with. We had a lovely clean, warm and comfortable room at the back of the house. Although we were only in Amsterdam for just over 24 hrs Karel was very helpful, answering all our questions with regards to public transport etc. I would certainly recommend... More

The location is perfect - just a five minute walk from museum square, and a variety of public transportation options. The place is bright, well-decorated and so charming. The owner has thought of all the little details that make a house feel like a home. And his collection of crystal and antiques is inspired - really gives a unique look... More

This b and b was perfect for my 6 days in Amsterdam with my mom. The location is perfect, 3 blocks to VondelPark, block and 1/2 to the Van Gogh Museum, Reijksmuseum and grocery store. It's also across the street from the tram to the train station and a block from the bus stop to/from the airport. The garden room... More

No doubt this is the place to be when you seek for a personal touch and a lovely B & B in Amsterdam. The owner has put his hart in this beautiful place. He was so kind to show us all 3 rooms and each room had it's special touch, really very tasteful! You feel at home and at the... More

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Collector B&B. The house is uniquely decorated with bold and graphic displays of amazing collections such as wooden clogs, old canes & perfume bottles to name just a few. Our room was off the back of the house and was very nice. The bed was so comfortable, the shower was... More
