A shining example of elegance since 1867 and presently ranking amongst the best hotels world-wide, this striking 5-star hotel commands a prime location on the Amstel River. Completely restored to its original glory, the Amstel Hotel reflects luxury and grace in every detail. From the lavish rooms and suites to the impressive lobby and Michelin gourmet restaurant, guests will experience nothing but comfort and outstanding service.

Upon request the limousine service can be used for picking up and dropping off from and to the airport Schiphol. After a day of activity, the hotel health club with its 15 metre pool, gym, sauna, sun bed and Turkish bath is the perfect place to unwind free of charge. For a professional masseuses we will charge a supplement.

The most prestigious hotel in Amsterdam is located on the Amstel river, close to the famous Carre Theatre and not far from all of the touristic attractions that this famous city has to offer. The bedrooms are large, luxurious and very comfortable with either a blue or red colour scheme and offer all the facilities one would expect from a hotel of its calibre. They are in very good condition as are the large and luxurious bathrooms, with an extensive bar selection in each room. The famous Michelin star restaurant is located on the lower ground floor and so has delightful views over the River Amstel. It offers a superb, international menu with very attentive staff. All meals are served in this restaurant although the bar also serves an a la carte menu which is more substantial than most bar menus. The lobby and the rest of the public areas are also traditional in style and exude elegance and luxury and class. The lobby is large with gold plated adornings, attractive cornices and the lounge area is located off the lobby with wonderful views of Amsterdam and the River Amstel. Afternoon tea and other beverages are served here. This is a very traditional, large building which is very impressive and a landmark of Amsterdam. This hotel is without doubt the best in the city, and so is used predominantly by both local and international governments and the entertainment world. The health spa also has a lovely advantage in that there is a lovely sun terrace which overlooks the Amstel River and where people can relax with a drink or sunbathe, weather permitting. This hotel comes highly recommended for those with the budget to match. 201207JG
