Because of its excellent restaurant, the Garden considers itself a "culinary hotel," an idea that extends to the rooms, whose color schemes are salad-green, salmon-pink, cherry-red, and grape-blue -- you can choose whichever suits you best.

"On a quiet canal in an upmarket residential area, this hotel... feels deliciously isolated, yet it is just a short walk from Museumplein."
Star Service
"Located in a quiet residential area, across the street from the Hilton, a few minutes from the RAI and WTC centers, this is certainly a good hotel, with an emphasis on dining in Mangerie de Kersentuin." Full review
Fodor's
"This bulky, modern hotel, with spacious rooms and a well-regarded restaurant, looms over a tree-lined street within walking distance of the Concertgebouw and Vondelpark." Full review
