Moving is hard enough, but moving to another country adds so many extra layers of stress it's crazy. Save yourself a ton of hassle if you're moving to the Netherlands (Amsterdam specifically) and rent your temporary accommodation from City Retreat. James and team will work with you on timing, location, amenity needs, etc and get you set up and ready to go the minute you arrive. Very smooth process, was even able to pay deposit and rent via Wise app. I booked for 6 months at first but since I found my permanent housing after a few months I was easily able to submit 1 month notice and leave before the 6 months was up -- absolutely no hassle or pressure -- they were awesome. Also, very shortly after check-out I received my full deposit back. Put your mind at ease and go with City Retreat for your furnished short term rental in AMS, you'll be really glad you did.
Hi Christian, James here. Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review. From all the team here, Paul, Mat and I, we really appreciate you valued our service and that we were able to assist you during the move. All the very best. City Retreat

Really enjoyed my stay with City Retreat.
We had some problems with the booking at the beginning, not by their fault, and they took such a great care of it and made sure our new place was ready on time. Always had an amazing communication with all of them. Great people to work with and definitely a good way to start you life in Amsterdam, or to stay for few months.
Keep up a great work guys! Really appreciate you making our move to Amsterdam as easy as it could possibly be! Thank you :)
Hi Stela, James here. Thanks so much for the review and for being an amazing tenant during your stay this year. I hope the move went well. Many thanks

I can only recommend City Retreats for shorter stays in Amsterdam, where the rental market is very challenging. They were exceptionally flexible and professional, and responded quickly to every inquiry. Despite the high price, the experience was smooth and reliable.
Thanks so much for the review Niko. We wish you all the very best.

City Retreat were very responsive and helpful, answering my many questions. The person that met me at the apartment to give me the keys as well as the person that checked the apartment at the end of my stay were friendly and made sure I had everything I needed. They noticed that the fan in the apartment was broken, so they promptly bought and shipped a new fan. During my stay, I let them know that the showerhead was coming off of the wall and they had someone come by and fix it the following day. If given the opportunity, I would definitely go through them again.
Hi David! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. Thanks so much for trusting us to provide you with this service and for being an amazing tennant. Don't hisitate to ask if you need temporary accommodation in Amsterdam again.
Thanks so much for the review Andrey! It was a pleassure working for you.

They were beforehand the best available option to get a good apartment in Amsterdam, a city which is not easy for stays lower than a year. After completing our six months stay, I can confirm that our expectations were fulfilled! Their were the only ones able to offer an apartment in the Central Area of der Pijp. The apartment was spacious and perfectly fitted, despite having to pay a high price for that.
Hi David, thank so much for the honest and fair review. Kind Regards James and the team

I had a great 5 months stay in Amsterdam thanks to the City Retreat team, they were really helpful throughout the whole process! Special thanks to James who helped me find a dog-friendly flat in a fantastic location near Vondelpark. I have no doubt my experience wouldn't have been the same otherwise! Paul & the rest of the team were very efficient & responsive, I would definitely recommend them to anyone visiting Amsterdam. I know I'll be using their services whenever I'm back for a short term stay 😊 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Central position near Vondelpark, but in close proximity of a busy and noisy street. The apartment was missing essential equipment, but it this was quickly sorted out by the provider. In the higher price bracket in the market. Enjoyable stay all in all.
