Michelin Guide "The handsome Berlage architeaure of this hotel hints at the elegant accommodation on offer here."
Concierge "Instead of relying on high design as so many other new places in the Dutch capital do, it's taking a shot at being the coziest, comfiest hotel in town."
Travel + Leisure "Located on the Herengracht Canal, the Banks Mansion is a stately white-columned hotel housing 51 rooms, many of which display serene water views." Full review
DK Eyewitness "In an imposing former bank, this hotel is all-inclusive: everything, from the Internet to movies to the minibar, is free."
Star Service "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." Full review
Time Out "Once you check in to this grand hotel in a former bank building, everything is yours to choose." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"You get far more than a fancy bed here: tipples are complimentary at the self-service wet bar in the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed lobby." Full review
