"This hotel is in a perfect location for visiting Amsterdam. Built in 1908, and originally a theater, the building has character. Repurposed as a hotel in 1989 the property has been renovated with the exception of the carpeting. Steps in any direction would take you to the The Royal Palace of Amsterdam, an AMAZING farm to table restaurant, recommended to us as we checked in, canal views, shopping, public transportation... The bathrooms were clean and the linens were pristine. Rooms had windows that opened to allow for a comfortable breeze on occasion. When we arrived, the weather had been a exceptionally warm and there was a bit of a musty odor as if the room had been closed up for a bit, however the open window quickly refreshed the air. Daily housekeeping was delightful to return at days end to refreshed beds and fresh towels. The available breakfast buffet was delicious, fresh cheeses and meats, breads, pastries, eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, yogurts, fruit, juices, coffee, tea... with a more than spacious dining area. Multiple sitting areas were available in and around the lobby to meet with fellow travelers, family, or friends. The staff was always gracious, helpful and kind."
