I would love to give this hotel a higher rating - the staff were so friendly, the location was great, sizeable rooms for Amsterdam and a great restaurant and bar on the main floor. However the second the sun when down the music would start. I don’t know if it was coming from the bar, or other rooms but it would play until 6am. It wasn’t the same source of music the whole time it would stop and start from different areas but I could hear it clearly and even earplugs wouldn’t stop me from hearing the thumping of the base. If there wasn’t music playing, there were drunk people screaming and laughing outside. I had some of the worst sleeps I have ever had here so unfortunately I can only give this hotel 3 stars.

Excellent stay at the Clayton. Location is fantastic. Easy access (walking) to museums and to tram system. Lots of restaurants near by and great patio around the corner with multiple bars. Only down size is the noise on Friday and Saturday from the people enjoying life will keep you up.

We loved staying here. But the room has no drawers or luggage racks and the lighting was not quite as good as it could be. The bed was very comfortable and we loved the restaurant…everything we had was quite delicious…a little heavy on the cream, but their side veggies and salads were quite good. There were two small windows on either side of sloping interior roof that also made the room a bit dark and our view looked out on the roof…also there wasn’t really a table to sit and eat in the room. Location was perfect. Trams right out front. And our room, even tho close to the elevator, was remarkably quiet.

We had a double deluxe room and it was nice, clean and they offered room service as well. Both restaurants were lovely and we met a lot of people at both spots! It's centrally located so easy to get to everything - trams, buses, or just walking around town. So much to see and do - we really could not have been happier!
