Fodor's Expert Review InterContinental Amstel Amsterdam
Professor Tulpplein 1, Amsterdam, North Holland, 1018 GX, Netherlands
Elegant enough to please a queen and extroverted enough to welcome A-list celebrities, this grand hotel, with its palatial facade and regal guest quarters, has wowed just about everyone since it opened its doors in 1867. The magnificent lobby has a grand double staircase and fresh floral displays; Persian carpets, warm hues, and elegant marble bathrooms (with separate tubs and showers) enliven the guest rooms. The generous staff-to-guest ratio, elegant French restaurant, a riverside terrace, a large heated indoor swimming pool, and an endless stream of extra "little touches" (such as a yacht service) ensure a truly baronial experience.
PROS
- palatial atmosphere
- spacious rooms and suites with marble bathrooms
- very attentive staff
CONS
- slightly old-fashioned decor
- slow check-in
- extremely expensive
