 Our room was beautiful well appointed and spacious and quiet on the high floor we requested but at the end of the day climbing a circular staircase to reach the tower was sometimes daunting Do some research on your own for restaurants There are wonderful choices from grand hotel dining rooms to casual fun happening dining experiences The front desk disappointing here and recommends very commercial and forgettable restaurants 
 The location is excellent On a quiet but grand canal street In the nine streets the trendiest shopping cafe and restaurant area The scenery is gorgeous the hotel staff are accommodating A perfect hotel to use as a basis to walk Amsterdam a modern city with loads of old world charm Room service breakfast was a delight We had dinner at the restaurant and were very pleased
