Frommer's Review

If small but chic and reasonably priced describes the sort of hotel you prefer, you'll be pleased at the Owl, in the pleasant residential area around Vondelpark, behind the Marriott. One of Amsterdam's best values, the Owl has been owned by the same family since 1972 and is bright, tidy, and well kept. Rooms aren't very big, but they're not cramped either, and they've all been recently renovated. Bathrooms are tiled floor to ceiling, and there's a pleasant lounge bar overlooking a small garden.

Facilities:
Lounge; bar; room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
