"The Pulitzer's scale makes it the closest thing this city has to a resort—there's an art gallery, a gym, and a private boat for canal cruises."
"The result is a place that oozes charm and character, and despite having 230 rooms it still seems very personal, a place where you feel that every guest genuinely matters."
"Spread over 25 adjoining canal houses, this hotel is perfect for a luxurious splurge."
"A group of 25 admirably-restored houses, dating from the 17 and 18C, set around a well-tended garden. Public areas filled with works of art; refined, individualized bedrooms."
"This was Starwood's leading lady in Amsterdam until just a few days before inspection." Full review

This is a gem, but be sure to check on the progress before booking a room.
"Sprawling, though ever so elegantly, across a staggering 25 canal houses, the Pulitzer is an ideal destination for indulgent getaways." Full review

"Scoring high on elegance but low on pomposity, the Pulitzer manages to combine big-hotel efficiency with boutique-hotel charm." Full review
"Before 1960, each of its 25 buildings was an individual, 17th- or 18th-century merchant canal house. Painstaking renovations over the years have guaranteed that each room feels distinct." Full review
"Soon, the dust covers will come off the Pulitzer Amsterdam’s first stage of restoration and renovation. The project to repackage the former 45 year-old Hotel Pulitzer is an immense one..." Full review
"A charming hotel, imaginatively constructed within authentic canal houses." Full review

"A sister hotel to the iconoclastic Lloyd hotel, the Exchange is located on tatty Damrak, the tourist-thronged artery that runs from the Centraal Station to Dam Square."
"All of the rooms in three adjoining buildings have been designed by students and alumni from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute and are unique and funky." Full review
"God knows, Damrak needs a decent hotel, and this new sister to the excellent Lloyd Hotel... is a welcome and wacky newcomer... for the price, it’s one of the best places to sleep in town."
"The Exchange has 61 rooms that have been done up in crazy, eye-popping style by students from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute." Full review

If you like plain decor, this isn't your place.
Mid-Range
"The Exchange is a boutique concept hotel, where all 61 rooms have been decorated by different young fashion designers from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute." Full review
"Students from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute designed the rooms here, and each is wildly different, from one in an all-white palette to another whose walls are draped in exotic fabrics." Full review
"Eight students from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute were selected to 'dress' the rooms... room inspiration ranged from Marie Antoinette to wallflowers and denim jackets." Full review

"On a hectic street between Central Station and the Dam, just a heartbeat from the Red Light District." Full review
