The accommodation provided by the hotel was superb, have never stayed in anywhere like it. You could not ask for better staff from the time you were greeted at the entrance, then reception and by everyone else you were served by. The quality, details and attention to the appearance of everything in the hotel is marvellous. The food in the restaurant..."
Verified guest · 1 month ago"We had a quick stay in Amsterdam and found this hotel through our All Aacor membership. We are so grateful we did! The hotel was absolutely beautiful and the staff were so friendly. We had a beautiful junior suite which was quite large and nicely appropriated. The location was very central but if you need a quiet neighborhood, please be aware this is near/adjacent to the "Red Light" District so you will be walking through some louder streets at times..."

Verified guest · 3 month ago"We stayed at The Grand in Amsterdam last week, two adults and our 12-year-old daughter, and had such a lovely experience. Our room was the Rembrandt van Rijn Suite and it was honestly perfect when travelling with a child. What I loved most was that everyone had their own space and a bit of privacy, which you don’t often get in hotel family rooms. The hotel itself is beautiful and the location is fantastic, but what really stood out was..."
