"Our favourite hotel in this price range, it has just eight rooms in a house dating back to 1652. Its rooms, named for Dutch painters, are furnished with simplicity, but all have canal views." Full review

"All rooms are en suite and no-smoking, and there is even a lift, making the Brouwer all-round great value."
