"In an imposing former bank, this hotel is all-inclusive: everything, from the Internet to movies to the minibar, is free."

"Flirty and fun fashion is the foundation for this postcard boutique-hotel for young couples. It is a more conservative version of the Toren and Ambassade."

"One of Amsterdam's finest hotels... Pure, unadulterated luxury."

"You will sacrifice a canal view, but the location of this bustling hotel, opened in February 2012 directly across from the Museumplein, more than compensates."

The cavernous center is divided into spaces aligned with the four elements, but if you have to choose, forget earth, fire, and air and head for the water spa, which features a watsu pool and hammam treatments.

"Although it lacks the intimate room count of a true boutique-hotel, this creatively transformed Gothic fortress features some of the most dramatic architectural-scapes in Amsterdam."
