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

9.0

"While it takes up prime real estate in a former music conservatory just a stone’s throw from the Rijks and Museumplein, Conservatorium has a lot more going for it than location alone." Full review
Fodor's
"An impressive early 20th-century bank turned music school is a visual feast, with a glass-roofed, tree-filled courtyard lobby and dramatically modern guest rooms." Full review

"It takes only a moment to feel at home in the antiques-adorned Wiechmann, a classic, comfortable sort of place, despite the suit of armor you encounter just inside the front door." Full review

DK Eyewitness
"A cosy little place ideal for exploring the Jordaan, Wiechmann combines its old-fashioned charm with modern touches like (free) Wi-Fi Internet."
Rough Guide
"Family-run for over fifty years, this hotel occupies an attractively restored canal house close to the Anne Frank Huis, with dark wooden beams and restrained style throughout."
Time Out
"Retro touches from every era, from a suit of armour in the reception to 1950s teapots and toasters in the breakfast room, adorn this rather eccentric, long-established hotel." Full review
