"Upstairs, spacious and tasteful rooms cluster in groups of two or four around small lobbies, which makes this feel more like an apartment building than a hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Owned by a publisher, this hotel is proud of its literary connections and the authors who stay here."
Rough Guide
"Small and stylish hotel not far from Leidesplein. Rooms vary in decor but all include a minibar, telephone and TV. Those on the top floor have good views of the city. €175."
Michelin Guide
"Facing the canal, this complex features a 17C house and a huge 1921 building, where a pupil of famous French chef Escoffier once owned a food shop. Large guestrooms, studio and penthouse."
Star Service
