MAX BROWN
CANAL DISTRICT
Max Brown Canal District is set at the intersection of Amsterdam’s most iconic canals and made up of three historical canal houses. Walk inside and you’ll find a completely modernized interior, art by local artist Gino Bud Hoiting and the much-admired—and Instagrammed—book wall. You’ll always have the Max Brown essentials—great coffee, free WiFi and the most comfortable bed around. A classic breakfast is yours for €14.50 per person. If you ever just want to unwind, grab a new read from the book swap library, have a drink from the honesty fridge, play a board game or lounge in our peaceful inner garden terrace.
FOOD & DRINKS
Our hotel guests are welcome to have a drink or bite in their guest room. For dinner, you can order delivery from wherever you wish or enjoy a take-out pizza by us in-room.
MAX BROWN COMFORTS
At Max Brown, we’ve mastered the basics so well that you won’t miss fancy pillow menus and room service. That doesn’t mean our hotels are basic. Far from it. Have a look around and you’ll see that we make a big effort with every small detail, all so you feel more like a local than a tourist. Here are the four Max Brown essentials:
BREAD
Fresh bread delivered daily by our local suppliers. Smells incredible, tastes even better.
COFFEE
Don’t worry about finding a great cup of coffee in the neighbourhood every morning—it’s right here.
BED
We’re so proud of our beds that we take one on a tour around Europe every year.
LOCATION
So much to see, so little time. Good thing we’re right at the heart of it all.

IN THE CENTRE OF IT ALL
The hotel’s front doors open out to Milkmaids Bridge and the canal, where you can hop on our very own boat for a ride. The neighbourhood is filled with revered landmarks to explore, like the Anne Frank House just a few minutes’ walk away. If you ever want local tips you won’t find in your guidebook, the Max Brown team has you covered.
