“Fantastic, funky and great location!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

I really enjoyed my stay at Mauro Mansion, it was the little touches which made this hotel so great. We arrived on Valentines Day, red and white heart shaped balloons, alongside a little chocolate were placed on our bed. The mini fridge was stocked with juice, beer and sparkling wine, free of charge! Each evening a different treat was left on our pillow (waffle cookies etc) and each morning an extra surprise at breakfast - freshly cut pineapple, mini pancakes, little pastries. These were on top of an already delicious breakfast of fresh fruit, local bread, meats and cheeses (stored in a funky red fridge by the breakfast table) and a coffee machine and selection of teas. Tea and coffee were available from reception all day. The honesty bar was an added bonus if you got the munchies late at night or fancied an extra glass of wine or beer.
There were a selection of dvds and books which could be borrowed and an ipad and macbook available at reception at all times.
The rooms were spacious and well equipped with ipod docking station, flatscreen tv and dvd player. Our bathroom had a deep bath, walk-in shower and fragrant toiletries.
Mauro Mansion is located a few minutes away from central station and is walking distance to so many of the squares and local attractions.
We were lucky enough for the ice to melt on the canals so that we could enjoy an hour cruise around the city.
I totally recommend Mauro Mansion!!!

“Perfect stay for a few days”

Perfect location - 5 minute walk from central station, so no need for a taxi/tram. We had a room on the second floor with a courtyard view, we would have preferred a canal view, but booked late so was to be expected. The room was well equipped and flawlessly clean and tidy, and cleaned to perfect standards every morning. The facilities at the hotel were fantastic. Breakfast was great, with a little surprise treat each morning, the free use of wifi, iPad, MacBook, TV/DVD player in the room, the honesty bar... All fantastic. Owners are extremely friendly and happy to help with any queries you may have (they recommended a great Indonesian restaurant for us). Would certainly stay here again, and recommend to anyone wanting a relaxed few days away.

“First Choice for Amsterdam!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 February 2012

Berry and Marcel are perfect hosts and staff is exceedingly friendly and helpful. Only drawback was no elevator, but they took luggage to and from room for us so we didn't have to struggle up 3 flights of stairs. The building is historical and all structural changes must be approved so no elevators. Plus is that rooms are large and have high ceilings. GREAT breakfasts - variety of cheeses and meats, the best whole grain bread ever, yogart, fruits, cereal, etc. Every morning there was a special dish freshly prepared for each guest - chocolate crepes, a fruit and yogart parfait, etc. There are drinks in lobby/breakfast area and you just tell them what you had when checking out. There is tv and vcr in room and large selection of dvds, cds and books to borrow. Lighting in room is poor if you like to read in bed. We loved the location - walking distance of everyplace we wanted to go and if you don't want to walk, rent a bicycle. Down the street there was red-light house which we did not notice until second evening. The "ladies" stood in narrow windows and beckoned and sometimes knocked to passerbys. Lots of good and relatively inexpensive restaurants nearby and if you want to eat in, there is a small refrigerator in rooms and serving utensils in breakfast area you can use. We HIGHLY recommend this place and would stay here again!

My husband & I stayed here in a street level canal room. We can only agree with all the positive comments about Mauro. Honesty bar, breakfast, free use of iPad, friendly owners and staff person. STAY HERE!!
