Stayed here for just 2 nights in the canal room. What a beautiful property! The owner was so wonderful and having the tiny kitchenette with food, toaster oven, mini fridge and Senso coffee maker was just perfect. Clean, Clean, Clean. This place was immaculate. Newer mattresses. Haven't slept this well in a long time. Very close to Waterlooplein metro/tram stop.... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in March 2012. We needed a ground floor room because my wife can't climb stairs so this place was perfect. The host is lovely. She is happy to leave you alone but happy to spend time to explain plenty about her city. She will also provide recommendations for dinner and lunch. We stayed in... More

I had the opportunity to stay in the garden house and everything was "perfect". The owner could not be more helpful and she outdoes herself to help her guests feel welcomed. I am only saddened that she is thinking of retiring...she and her accomodations are a hidden gem in a wonderful city.

In 2005, I found Hanno Penso advertised on the internet and made reservations in the Canal Room and the Garden House for a family vacation. We enjoyed our visit so much that we have recommended Hanna Penso to others, and had the opportunity to return ourselves in December of 2011. We stayed in the Garden Room and the Canal Room... More

The room was extremely comfortable - quite large with a desk and chairs where you can sit It is about a 5min walk from the subway and very central. All the major sights are within walking distance...

We want to share with you that we enjoyed our stay at Hanna Penso in Amstersdam, Beatrijs is a wonderful hostess, it has a very good location, and the breakfast with the croissants is something we wait for them each morning. Whenever we will have a chance to visit again Amsterdam we will choose again to stay at Hanna Penso.

When searching for the best place to stay in Amsterdam we used the following criteria: location, price, safety, and cleanliness. The Hanna Penso was the name that came up and it did not disappoint in any way. We stayed in the Garden Room which had its own little kitchen and well stocked refrigerator. An assortment of fresh baked breads arrived... More

Our stay at the garden room was enjoyable in many ways. The host Beatrijs is very charming and welcoming and is clearly experienced in customer relations. When asked if she could supply wholemeal rolls she advised this was no problem at all, and these were forthcoming each morning. The fridge contained 6 portions of butter and six eggs with jams... More
