Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Backstage Hotel Amsterdam from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise the Backstage Hotel's excellent location, finding many of Amsterdam's attractions within easy walking distance and the Melkweg venue just a minute away. The music-themed decor is a hit, and the downstairs bar with instruments adds to the atmosphere. Some guests have mentioned the steep and narrow stairs, but the convenient tram stop a couple of blocks away for reaching the museums or central station is frequently highlighted, as well as the sink in the room.

The staff were helpful. The hotel has cool music themed decor. I found a tram stop conveniently located blocks away. (This.)

The stairs were very steep for reaching my room. The shared toilet was small. I heard everything , with a lot of creaking and banging.

The stairs where terribly steep, i did almost fall. also, the light in the bathroom kept going off. It was a sensor light. i think its outrageous that the light switches off by itself when i'm paying to stay there.

The hotel had a music theme. I liked the drum lights and music travel wardrobe cases. Staff members were friendly and helpful.

The stairs were horribly steep. I think pictures of those stairs would be helpful. The light in the bathroom went off after 20 seconds. It was a motion sensor light and I panicked in the shower when the light went off.
