beautiful junior suite overlooking the Amstel, as recognition of my Ambassador status. I was also granted my 4pm checkout without quibble.
The hotel itself is opulent and grand, with beautiful high ceilings, a decadent lobby, and excellent facilities. I particularly felt that the staff really cared about our stay experience, as even the less experienced staff members did their best to make us feel comfortable and valued.
I must specifically comment that the bathrooms are a real treasure in this hotel, with a large bath and separate cubicles for the toilet and separate shower.
We enjoyed the opportunity to take our breakfast on the terrace beside the Amstel. The bar served excellent cocktails once again, even despite the reduction in their menu due to the impact of covid. The bar staff were able to make cocktails off menu according to our particular preferences, and the results were spectacular.
Overall, I would say my girlfriend and I had a wonderful, relaxing stay in this quiet grand dame of a hotel. The staff are a credit to the hotel. [Less]
