"It sits away from the touristy Red Light District and Dam Square, and although first-timers may balk at the location, a half-hour trudge from Centraal Station, De Pijp is the current it-girl.

Afar Magazine
"Indulgent in a minimalist way, with dashes of both Japanese modernism and midcentury Scandinavian design in the black wooden floors, oversized white soaking tubs, and all the latest technology." Full review

"In many aspects, the Sir Albert is an unlikely hotel experience. Based on an entirely imaginary character, it is laid out as a well-appointed aristocratic home." Full review

Opt for a suite if you want a bit more privacy than the standard open-plan bathrooms afford.

"The book-lined lobby lounge, outfitted with generous leather seats, cowhide poufs, and a gas fireplace, is a cozy spot...many of the rooms feature high ceilings and equally tall windows" Full review
