"Very comfortable rooms."
Frommer's
"A stone's throw from the Dam, this hotel, founded in 1911, has an 18th-century facade. Its rooms are super-modern, though, with thick carpets and ample wardrobe space." Full review
Star Service
"Planted next door to the Swissotel, this is a viable option for midrange travelers when the rates are low, but it's another story when conventions are in town and rates exceed the offerings." Full review

DK Eyewitness
"With its long literary associations, this is the bookworm’s choice of lodgings: the library is lined with signed copies from the numerous authors who have stayed here."
Rough Guide
"Elegant canalside hotel made up of ten seventeenth-century houses with smartly furnished lounges, a well-stocked library and comfortable en-suite rooms."
Star Service
"On a beautiful canal in a residential neighborhood in the heart of Amsterdam, this exceedingly popular traditional hotel blends old school B&B style with a cozy residential feel." Full review

If possible, avoid the smaller Classic rooms and book a Deluxe room with a roomier sitting area and more enviable canalside location.
Time Out
"This literary hotel arranged across ten canal houses is the place to bump in to your favourite author." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler
"If more proof were needed of the Ambassade's – comprised of 10 18th century buildings -- significance, its central location on the Herengracht is a UNESCO World Heritage site." Full review

Choose canal-side rooms in this quiet part of town.
