Grand Hotel Amrath Amsterdam - Netherlands

The unique, charming 5 star Grand Hotel Amrath Amsterdam is conveniently placed right in a prime, historic position of Amsterdam City. It is about 10 minutes walk from the Central Station and around 15 minutes walk from popular Dam Square. The Art Deco style Grand Hotel Amrath has been excellently converted from an old shipping house and features a small 9 by 5 metres indoor pool, two saunas and a steam bath and massage and beauty treatments. Guest rooms are all unique in design and size and have an interesting tasteful Art Nouveau style.

Number of Rooms: 165

The restaurant is located on the upper ground floor and is very large. As this is a historical building, it is also a listed building and therefore, much of the original decor still exists so this room, while large and spacious, also benefits from the original woodwork found throughout the property. At night, the restaurant serves a predominantly fish menu and for breakfast, offers a very extensive buffet. The hotel also has a popular bar which serves an extensive snack menu as well as numerous hot and cold drinks and cocktails.

The lobby, which is reached by a small staircase, is small and has only a concierge desk, however, a main featur of the hotel is the original ceiling above the lobby. There is a small reception located off the lobby where guests are invited to sit down whilst checking in. Just behind the concierge desk is the bar.

The exterior of this building is very unique - it stands on a street corner and and resembles the helm of a great ship. It has many carvings engraved all over as well as numerous gargoyles and does not resemble a hotel whatsoever
