Situated close to the Stradsschouwburg Theatre and the Leidse Square, the Amsterdam American Hotel is ideally situated for exploring all the culture, museums and nightlife that Amsterdam has to offer. Centrally located yet in a quiet square, the tourist attractions around Dam Square are just over a mile away, and it is a pleasant walk along the old streets and canals.
Set in a grand Art Nouveau building dating back to 1900, this luxury hotel has kept pace with the times, and now offers modern, luxurious accommodation with historic charm. To celebrate its centenary, the hotel was refurbished and commissioned 100 works of art which now decorate the beautiful lobby and complement the original 1902 mural and other artworks.
This is one of the most popular hotels in Amsterdam for American guests as rooms are more spacious than the narrow townhouses, and the hotel has all the top-notch amenities including a business centre, air conditioning, a fitness room and sauna. The stained glass windows and the elaborate dining room hark back to a former era of grandeur and elegance.
The 174 rooms are very pleasant, spacious and furnished in a modern style. Staff are professional and more than willing to help guests with directions and local knowledge. Choose a room with a canal view if possible, as they are quieter and the views are infinitely prettier. Canal tours of the city start right outside the door! This luxury hotel is well frequented and has had its share of celebrity guests, as the signed photographs in the bar can testify. Rooms have cable TV, internet access and tea and coffee makers as well as security safes and complimentary bathrobes. The beds are huge and comfortable and the bathrooms are modern and well equipped.
Visit this historic hotel during the summer, and partake of the jazz brunch which is laid out under the trees by the fountains in the square, which give the event a delightful air. All in all a beautiful luxury Amsterdam hotel in a prime location.
