The Best Hotels in Amsterdam

"This place is intimate, exclusive, and quietly detached from the city’s hurly-burly, yet in the heart of the historic hotel district, with club-like armchairs and a fireplace in the lounge, and a sleeker dark-marble bar. Rooms—some large with canal views, others cozier under attic beams or facing onto a courtyard—are interspersed throughout two august canalside buildings and individually decorated: lush red and copper, perhaps, or cooler white, gray, and peppermint green. In Vinkeles restaurant (well-spaced tables in a brick-lined 18th-century bakery), chef Dennis Kuipers serves Michelin-starred new Dutch cuisine, with affordable options from the same kitchen in the bar/brasserie alongside." - Amber Port
