Beautiful Hotel in a Fantastic Location

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 15 Aug 2024via mobile
This was a beautiful hotel (love the history attached to it where it was previously a bank and then a hotel conservatory) with the unique Dutch architecture. We have been fortunate to have stayed at some nice hotels before but this was at the top end of our price bracket especially with having to get two rooms for our family of four and we were only able to stay here with their stay four days and pay for three promotion.

The location was fantastic—close to the museum quarter (steps away from the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh) but out of the tourist hubbub. It had easy transit to both tram (connecting with central station) and bus with stops outside of the hotel. It is near good restaurants as well and bakeries and love that a grocery store was steps away too.

The service was fantastic and they were so kind to upgrade us from our original deluxe room to rooftop suites (we had booked three rooms traveling with my parents as well). It was an incredible experience with rooms well appointed and Dutch architecture but so spacious for the city. I had originally booked here since their deluxe rooms were larger than the rooms I was finding in other hotels but loved the views from the windows and ample space with seating areas.

My husband enjoyed use of the gym during our stay. It was very zen and fortunately not crowded in the evening hours.

We hope to visit Amsterdam again and would plan on returning here since it was an amazing stay despite it being on the top end of our range :).

The understated luxury and excellent location makes this our Go-To hotel when visiting Amsterdam. It’s close to the best museums and great shopping. The staff is professional and attentive. I have no complaints other than I can’t live there year around.

This Hotel is a "must stay place!" Every aspect of our nearly a week stay there was exceptional. At the top of our list of accolades is the two very capable and affable concierges Etan and Marc. They made our stay beyond being just memorable and enjoyable, they made it outstanding! Their wonderful and expert suggestions, arrangements and guidance were only exceeded by their friendly, charming and warm reception and helpful attitudes. Thank you and kudos to both and the hotel's management for having them as the "Goodwill Ambassadors" for the Conservatorium!

Room tip: The concierges Etan and Marc will enhance your experiences in Amsterdam!

The best hotel I have stayed in a while. From the minute my friend and I stepped out of the car, someone looked after us. The check-in experience was the best I've ever had. The service in general is very attentive but not overwhelming. The hotel is absolutely stunning, the room was spacious, pure luxury very tastefully decorated.
The breakfast was delicious, not the biggest selection but it means that everything is super fresh.
Everything about the hotel is the right measure, not too much, not too little. Just perfect!

This was our first trip to Amsterdam, and what a perfect place to stay to enjoy it. The hotel has a huge and beautifully refurbished open lobby area housing a comfy lounge and the main restaurant. Whilst the lobby has a modern, almost industrial feel to it, the rest of the building feels much more 'Hogwarts' as you wander through the corridors and along the staircases. You'd be forgiven for thinking you were in an old school building for wizards!

The room we were in had high ceilings, and huge windows which spanned the full height. The ceiling was so expansive, it even had space for a separate floor level. It certainly had a wow factor when we first walked in, the downstairs housing a modest living room and spacious bathroom, with a small staircase taking you up to the sleeping area. The room also had a second bathroom on the bedroom level which we didn't realise was there until our second day as the walls were so flush. It was a fun surprise when we got back and the staff had left the 'hidden' door open so we could spot it!

For sleep, the bed was super comfortable, with an airy duvet and plush pillows, ideal for a good nights rest. Especially handy after some over indulgence on one evening :).

The spa wasn't available when we stayed so unfortunately we didn't get to try that (an alternative was offered but it was a cab ride away so skipped that until next time). We tried the inhouse restaurant Taiko and had some amazing sushi, and in the morning the breakfast options in the brasserie covered almost everything you might want to have.

In terms of location, it was ideal. With easy access to town and various sights of the city a short walk away. We learnt to keep a sharp eye out for bicycles whilst we were out and about. The city certainly lived up to its reputation - every road is like a small motorway for bikes and they move fast!

Awesome city, and fantastic hotel. Thanks to the wonderful staff for making our stay a great one! :)

Dear Garwth,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience at our hotel during your first trip to Amsterdam! We are thrilled to hear that you found our hotel to be the perfect place to enjoy your stay in the city.

It sounds like our lobby and its blend of modern and historical charm made a strong impression, and we're delighted that you enjoyed the unique 'Hogwarts' atmosphere of our building. Your description of your room, with its high ceilings, huge windows, and cleverly designed spaces, perfectly captures the essence of what we strive to provide for our guests.

We regret that you couldn't experience our spa this time, but we're glad you enjoyed the culinary delights at Taiko and the breakfast offerings in our brasserie. It's wonderful to know that our location served you well in exploring Amsterdam and that our staff contributed to making your stay great.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon, hopefully with our spa fully operational for you to enjoy. Thank you again for choosing us and for your kind words.

Warm regards,
Roy Tomassen
