True to the standards of the NH hotel chain, the Caransa is modern, extremely clean, spacious and comfortable. A long narrow spartan lobby takes you off the busy and beautiful Rembrandtplein square after a day spent roaming the canals and streets of Amsterdam. Upstairs, the room was far bigger than most in Europe, with large clean modern bathroom and two... more

Stayed here for a Friday and Saturday night, and I agree with most comments that some people may find it a bit noisy. However, the square the hotel is located has a brilliant selection of bars and restaurants which suited me prefectly. I didn't find the noise too bad anyway. Good clean hotel, friendly staff and very good price by... more

Very modern, well appointed rooms with big windows- many overlooking Rembrandtplein. Rooms are dark wood and white walls with a couple clever design features. Decent bath and nice common areas with everything you'd expect from a newly renovated property. Nothing is more than a 20 minute walk from this hotel. more

Excellent large rooms,friendly staff, a little bit noisy at weekends ,but it's ok.Excellent breakfast,although you have to cross the square to schiller hotel as there is no breakfast room in the caransa!generally great!!! more

A modern hotel with nice interior, we stayed Monday to Friday and had no problems at all. The room was spacious, clean and with everything you would expect. It was cleaned daily. We had no problems with noise from the square, we were however on the top floor so this may have helped (along with the time of year) The... more

NH Caransa is a modern looking hotel with stylish interior and friendly service. We stayed there at a Saturday night which wasn't a good idea because we could hear the beats from the nearby club so hard that we even could recognize which songs they played. So unless you go partying yourself during the night, don't stay at this hotel... more

We got to the hotel was told we could not use our debit card and had to leave a cah deposit of 50 euros which wasnt a problem, then when we came to book out (after a terrible night of riot police and noise) we were given back 57 euros, which we assumed was the room rate had gone down.... more

Just a short weekend stay, turned up early and although the room wasn't ready they stored our luggage for us and when we returned had moved us down a couple of floors, not sure if it was an upgrade but it was a nice room, very clean. Comfortable beds with four choices of pillow, large bathroom. Staff were very polite... more

We have stayed at NH Hotels in the past and have never been disappointed. The NH Caransa was nice as well and they were offering a special to upgrade to a room that overlooked the square for 30 euro a night. Our room was very spacious with a king size bed (two twins together). We had no complaints about the... more
