Prinsengracht 323
Price:€331-4127/night
If you’re looking for your home away from home in Amsterdam, look no further than the Pulitzer. Located in the heart of the enchanting Nine Streets district, the renowned hotel comprises 25 interconnected Golden Age canal houses on the famous Prinsengracht canal.
The hotel’s cozy rooms are individually styled in muted jewel tones, blending contemporary comfort and historic Dutch charm. With bespoke furniture, marble bathrooms and many with unbeatable canal views, each accommodation choice offers a unique but alluring atmosphere.
The Pulitzer is also exceedingly family-friendly. You can find amenities for children, including a garden play area and nanny services. Arrange a night of childcare and then dine on new Dutch cuisine at Jansz, the in-house restaurant, then sink into a plush velvet chair at Pulitzer’s Bar, one of my favorite bars in the entire city, and sip a cocktail.
Paulus Potterstraat 50

This luxury hotel in Amsterdam mixes cutting-edge design with architectural splendor in an exquisitely transformed bank building that once served as a music school. The Conservatorium’s location in the prestigious Museum Quarter is convenient for visiting some of the city’s most famous attractions, which also happen to be two of my favorite museums in the entire world – the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum.
Find spacious rooms, suites, and penthouses designed to cater to discerning tastes. The impressive facilities include a spa and fitness center featuring a pool, jacuzzi, sauna and hammam. Guests will also find an array of exceptional dining options like Taiko, a favorite dining spot in Amsterdam specializing in Asian-inspired cuisine, including innovative twists on Wagyu beef and sushi.
The glass-enclosed lounge is the hotel’s focal point, where guests can take it easy on plush sofas and bask in the natural light flooding the atrium.
Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 5
Price:€184-1128/night
With unrivaled proximity to the Central train station and several tram lines, the Kimpton De Witt Amsterdam hotel offers prime access to all of the city’s charms. When I stayed here a few years ago, I loved that the tram practically dropped me off at the front door after a long day exploring the city. Plus, furry friends are welcome to join (as long as they can fit through the door, according to Kimpton De Witt).
After a day of exploration, retreat to your comfortable room for a dose of modern luxury and warm hospitality. Much of the hotel occupies original 17th-century buildings, and all 274 guest rooms and five suites feature contemporary millwork, bold colors, and lush textures.
Dine on delectable California-inspired cuisine at the on-site restaurant, Celia. Or decompress with a drink at Super Lyan, the trendy bar that marks the international debut of acclaimed London-based bartender Mr. Lyan.
