The Bulldog was a great hostel to stay at while in Amsterdam! Wonderful facilities, friendly staff, and welcoming atmosphere. This was my very first hostel experience while traveling Europe, and I would definitely recommend it to other student travelers.

First time in Amsterdam and it won’t be my last and I’m sure I’ll stay here again. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The rooms were in perfect order and the food was excellent. The atmosphere there was nice and chilled too! Can’t wait to come back!

Beware of the Bulldog!

From a underground smokers-den to a coffeeshop empire. The Bulldog’s success-story reads like an American dream and as such could have filled an episode of Oprah. The Bulldog No. 90 was the first coffeeshop in Amsterdam and laid the benchmark for the contemporary coffeeshop. What once began in a cellar, has grown into an ironclad trade-name with five locations and a hotel in Amsterdam, locations in Canada and a merchandising line.
