Default Quentin Hotel, Leidseplein, Amsterdam

Man what a rocking hotel. It is located right off the Leidseplein, right beside the American Hotel. This is considered the rocker hotel, as the Melkweg and Paradiso music venues are located there. The desk staff was the shit. Apparently all the musicians who play these two venues stay there, and it felt like it. Our room was basic, and there was not much else offered. The front desk was 24 hrs, and they had luggage storgage for early arrivals about $50. for a double. Theres not much else to say except that we LOVED this hotel. Fucking cool as hell and smoker (weed) friendly. Its was all you could smell. Heres some pics, and I totally suggest staying here. Very reasonbly priced, but they do have requirements for weekends, etc....


The view from our room over the canal. Which there is a Canalbus dock


The lobby


Our room. Very basic, bed, tv, luggage storage

Yeah, I stayed here the last time I was in A'dam too! Great place. I'm so thankful for this post too cause I've been trying to remember the name of this hotel for MONTHS! So, thanks. But yeah, in the three trips I've taken to this lovely city - this has by far been the best hotel for the money! Give it a try for sure!

Good, Ray! Real good... just working, saving for the big move up to San Francisco! How about you? [should this be a PM? hehehhe] Yeah, I can't get on at work that much... plus I've been cheating on Tpunk a little bit

Great to see you though!
