An impressive 230-room hotel overlooking two of the city's more beautiful canals, the pricey Pulitzer has provided an afterlife for 25 17th- and 18th-century 'Golden Age' townhouses. Original features such as wooden ceiling beams add to the hotel's already homey and luxuriant feel ("quintessential Dutch elegance"), and the "tranquil garden oasis" is a big thing here.

Upscale Hotel on a Picturesque Canal
This unique hotel is a collection of 25 restored 17th and 18th century canal houses. Interior glass-enclosed walkways bring light into the hotel's central public spaces, and provide views of their gardens. My partner and I have stayed here three times and each room was different, all with a special Dutch ambience. The location on Prinsengracht (the Prinsen canal) is both picturesque and convenient. Walk out the front door, turn right and walk just a few minutes to two of Amsterdam's most important cultural sites: the Homomonument and the Anne Frank House. Westerkerk, where Rembrandt is buried, is also nearby. If you are looking for a hotel that offers real Dutch charm, this would be an excellent choice.
