Our 2nd stay here and we love it. Food is excellent. We need the accessibility of a garden room, but (in room 28) the hot weather meant the room was very stuffy, and cramped, and as there seemed no ventilation in the bathroom, leaving the door open added to the overall humidity. We were both exhausted, but very content to spend hours in the hotel's lovely private garden overlooking the canal. Everyone most friendly and attentive.
Resting by the picturesque Keizersgracht canal, this hotel offers an ideal base for exploring this charming, historical town

Lovely place in a lovely area. The food was excellent and the staff was lovely. They went above and beyond to fix a dinner for us, when the restaurant was closed.

Edam is a lovely village and great base for visiting Amsterdam, especially for families. There’s not a lot to do in Edam itself, but it’s really pretty and all the people we met were very friendly. There’s a lovely sweet shop too, and the owner gave our kids a free treat each.

Edam is a great little village.
Edam is a great little village. The cheese market is a must see. Get there a little early to get a front row seat, maybe 15 minutes before it opens. The canals are great and I recommend hiring a boat to do a one hour self guided tour. There are only a few restaurants in the town. We went to Volendam for food which was great. It is a bit hard to get to and even harder to get back. No Ubers available in the evening and all the taxi companies were not even picking up the phone. We eventually were able to find a bus to get back.

With bus 314 from Amsterdam central station you’ll get to Edam in 30 minutes which you won’t even notice because you will be so busy looking at the amazing landscape of green grass fields canals farms typical Dutch houses. Edam and Volendam are very small and quiet places but there are lots of nice restaurants/pubs with live music, nice atmosphere, nice food. The shops close at 5 pm, around 6 everyone is having dinner. You get straight away the feeling of the countryside town where everything is more relaxed and people take it easy. If you are into nature you will be taken away by the bike/foot path to Volendam (3/4 km): it’s stunning! In Volendam you will walk the shopping street with amazing souvenirs on sale and at the end of the pedestrian path (marina park) you’ll find the bus stop for the return.
Get a nord Holland map and check out the rest of the region.
It’s unbelievable that these quality towns are just 15 km away from Amsterdam but the scenery changes radically. You get the best of both worlds in less than an hour travel!

Really good musical instrument shop selling hundreds of stringed instruments and accordeons. Excellent food in two very good restaurants - Strandbad and Juliana at reasonable prices. Expected cheese choice. Streets are very narrow and one way system is necessarily intricate because of canals. Cobbles make buggy-pushing hard work. House wines are good, but specialist wines vary expensive.

A wonderful town, worth visiting!
A wonderful town, worth visiting! It really feels like the best of Holland!!
Try dinner at L’auberge Damhotel. Scrumptious food especially the salad with fresh grilled tuna fish and the burger!!!
Definitely spend some time in the evening at Monickendam.

Edam is a beautiful small village/small city with a very nice view everywhere you go.
We enjoy our walk in the calm streets and beautiful houses around the hotel, not to mention the local cheese shop and other tourists attractions.
A very nice place to visit.
A gorgeous hotel right in the centre of Edam on the canal side. So quiet and peaceful. Our room was in a house in the pretty garden. I last visited this hotel 28 years ago and its still as lovely. You can sit outside in the garden outside your room. The restaurant is amazing but book - it gets very full. Breakfast is traditional Dutch with cereal and yoghurt, boiled eggs, a selection of hams cheeses, different breads and croisants. The staff are so friendly and efficient. I loved it.
Beautiful, newly renovated, spacious apartment in a great location to explore Edam or to take the bus into Amsterdam. The hosts were extremely kind and welcoming and went out of their way to ensure we had a perfect stay. They even provided a baby travel bed for our 5 months old son. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.
The property is beautiful and clean, with a beautiful view and have all necessities you could need during a stay there. The bed is also really comfy, we had a great night sleep there. The hosts are super welcoming and nice! We would definitely come back to explore Edam and surroundings a bit more. :)
Excellent location with wonderful outdoor patio area along the canal. Picture perfect Holland houses and near to everything. The restaurant was so quaint and comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding and we enjoyed both drinks and meals on the patio. All the hotel staff were friendly and helpful.
Beautiful, spacious and well designed old house in the very heart of old Edam. The place has all of the necessary facilities and the beds are comfortable too. Tge hosts were very friendly. The nearby located cheese store sells very nice authenric cheese. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
The room is really well furnished, the seesight is fantastic, peacefully, directly on the country! I loved it at sunset. Edam is the best village nearby, pictoresque but not very touristic and has an interesting beautiful museum. Our hosts was very kind and available.
Lovely B&B in Edam, walking distance from downtown. Also 35 min walk from Volendam but you have plenty of buses stopping 3 min away from the B&B.
Staff was fantastic. Bedroom spacious and clean and breakfast was complete.
The room was spotlessly clean. Crisp bedding and a sparkling bathroom. Dressing gowns and slippers were an added bonus. The hotel’s decor is vibrant and fun throughout and the location is excellent.
Very considerate and thoughtful hosts. Good privacy, lovely design of guesthouse, extremely clean. Location in Edam was excellent, close to public transport to Amsterdam. Canal-front view.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the location in Edam very much. It's an older/traditional building but very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the live music as well.
It was good breakfast and service. Hotel was both central for the small town of Edam and also for bus access to downtown Amsterdam. Very convenient for sight seeing around Edam.
Really nice garden! House is close to Volendam & Edam and the view from the room on the topfloor is amazing. Breakfast was nice and we can choose between several sandwiches
Great hotel location, just a half-hour bus ride to Amsterdam. Very friendly hosts. The kitchen is equipped with all necessary utensils and appliances. Comfortable bed.
