Frommer's "Individually styled and furnished rooms reflect the different phases of the building's past and are the last word in plush." Full review
Insight Guides "It’s seriously swish, with an indoor pool, sauna, spa, rooms with perfect canal views and a gourmet French restaurant."
Fodor's "Beyond the neoclassical courtyard and carved marble pediments is a haven of style and luxury, a stunning symphony of color and chic furniture." Full review
Lonely Planet "You may feel a bit royal yourself as you wander through the cavernous lobby, grandiose public spaces and stained-glassed stairwells." Full review

"The Sofitel is an upscale property in the heart of the Old Center." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This historic Amsterdam building dates back to 1578 and served as a convent and City Hall before becoming the Grand hotel, and then Sofitel Legend in 2010." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Once inside the courtyard, guests are cocooned in luxury. Everything you expect from a deluxe hotel is here: marble bathrooms, spacious rooms and discreet service."

Superiors are the standard category, but many face the canal so be sure to request these in advance.

Concierge "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."
Insight Guides "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."
DK Eyewitness "Spread over 25 adjoining canal houses, this hotel is perfect for a luxurious splurge."
Michelin Guide "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."
Star Service "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.
Time Out "Sprawling, though ever so elegantly, across a staggering 25 canal houses, the Pulitzer is an ideal destination for indulgent getaways." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Scoring high on elegance but low on pomposity, the Pulitzer manages to combine big-hotel efficiency with boutique-hotel charm." Full review
Afar Magazine "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
Wallpaper "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
Jetsetter "A charming hotel, imaginatively constructed within authentic canal houses." Full review
