We’re a little different from the average Amsterdam hotel. For starters, we’re slightly off the beaten track. We’re located at Bloemgracht, an enchanting 17th century canal just off of the Prinsengracht. We’re in the heart of the Jordaan, the sassy, smart village in midtown with its exciting art studios, quirky little shops and authentic Amsterdam bars & cafés – where Sundays get as comfy and as quiet as a tiny French town. That’s just like us.
What’s more: we go way back to the sixties, when one day, our founder decided to advertise his couch at the local tourist agency. People loved it. So the couch turned into a room, which turned into two, which expanded into a full floor, then into more floors until even the house next door gave in to the hospitable spirit of our Mr. Jordaan. You could say he was a pioneer. Started couch surfing before its time. AirBnB-by-phone-and-snail-mail. Stay-with-a-local, well before we even knew ‘local’ was something to aspire.

But what makes us different most, is you. Because the truth of the matter is: Mr. Jordaan is for travellers. For decades, it’s been a home away from home for explorers. For the curious, the original. For people who look a little further and leave plenty of room for surprises & little treasures, unnoticed by travel books, tourist guides and backpack blogs.
Check in and before you know it, you will consider yourself a true canal dweller, inhabiting Amsterdam’s finest neighbourhood & adopting the funky Jordaan lifestyle. You will fit right in.
Come and see for yourself. We’ll gladly give you our key.
Mr. Jordaan.
His place, your home.
