Star Service "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
Wallpaper "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

"A 19th-century diamond factory houses this glitzy design hotel." Full review
Fodor's "Set in a late-19th-century former diamond factory, this atmospheric hotel aims to make guests feel like they're staying in a deluxe private mansion." Full review
The Telegraph7.0
"Housed in a converted diamond factory, and decorated with careful contemporary taste, the Sir Albert offers a reposeful retreat, popular with the over-30s and corporate travellers." Full review
Jetsetter "An award-winning boutique hotel in the heart of the Latin Quarter, with design-centric interiors." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "His genteel touch is everywhere, from the refined Japanese food in Izakaya to the atmospheric interiors and the impressive selection of books in the study." Full review
Frommer's "This boutique property is nicely situated on the border of De Pijp and the Museum Quarter, within easy walking distance of the city’s Big Three museums and the bustling Albert Cuyp Market." Full review

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

Frommer's "Maybe too close to the Red Light District for some people's taste, and on a slightly seedy street, the Winston is a step up from grungy and has a hang-loose, alternative rep." Full review
Lonely Planet "Most rooms are 'art' rooms: local artists were given free rein, with results from super-edgy (entirely stainless steel) and playful to questionably raunchy." Full review
Rough Guide "Part of the St Christopher’s Inns chain, this self-consciously young and cool hotel has funky rooms decorated with crazy art, and a busy ground-floor bar that has regular live music."

"People book a room at the St Christopher's at Winston Hotel to have fun and mingle with like-minded revelers." Full review
Time Out "Now part of St Christopher's Inns, a UK-based hostel chain, the legendary Winston still manages to maintain its youthful, party-loving atmosphere and arty rooms." Full review
Let's Go "Hotel Winston feels more modern and continental than the other boozing-and- snoozing complexes on the street, thanks in part to the attached sleek bar and trendy club." Full review
The Telegraph7.0
"Hip, high-energy, with a popular bar and club attached, and very much part of the red-light district: this is a place to party, not for early nights or a quiet break." Full review
