This hotel has to be the best hotel in Amsterdam. The room (jr suite) was exquisite. The restaurant was top class for all meals. Trams are a one minute walk from the hotel making it easy to get anywhere in the city. Everything was perfect. We will stay there again.

Was in an executive room. Great bed but not great sound insulation. Moved rooms to not face tram stop but still got a fair bit of noise from it. Otherwise, the room was nice.
