國賓大酒店(Ambassade Hotel)

Our flight was canceled so we booked a night here and absolutely loved it. The owner is a collector of COBRA art (COpenhagen, BRussels, Amsterdam postwar art) and he has filled the hotel walls with prints and paintings from his collection. I absolutely loved the art, so this was a real bonus. And the library and reading rooms were full of great books on different subjects. I had planned to go out on the town, but found myself reading some of the books in the cozy reading room instead, and I didn’t regret it at all. The room décor was not to my taste (kind of Hollywood glam), but it was extremely comfortable. The mattress and pillows were perfect, not too hard or soft, but just right. The floors had radiated heat which was lovely, especially in the bathroom which included a nice large tub! I can’t speak to the food in the hotel restaurant because we opted for a more casual dinner a few doors down. In retrospect I wish we had dined at the hotel because the food at the pub was underwhelming, especially if you like to eat healthily.

The Ambassade is one of the most wonderful hotels I have had the pleasure of spending time. It will be my go to hotel and the hotel I will recommend to anyone traveling to Amsterdam. The rooms are both elegant and charming. The bathrooms are spectacular with the best tub/shower I have ever experienced. The staff was always courteous and helpful. The food was beautifully prepared and delicious. I cannot wait to return!

Staff was exquisitely helpful and friendly. They even found a shoestring for me ( I broke mine and could not walk around) It’s a small thing but give the flavor of a place that brings customer care to a Higher levrl

We had a wonderful stay at the Ambassade Hotel in Amsterdam. We stayed in room 64 which was a spacious room over looking the canal. The room was on the second floor which is accessed by a very narrow and steep spiral staircase. We were helped with our luggage so this wasn’t a problem but if you have a hard time with stairs than this room may not be the best option. The middle windows completely open up to allow fresh air in. We arranged the chairs and enjoyed the scenery and listened to music. We took advantage of booking a private 2 hour art and history tour of the city with Eduard which was absolutely delightful. One morning we had breakfast at the hotel which offered continental style items as well as hot items which could be ordered ala carte. We also had 7pm reservations for dinner at the brasserie but we were regretfully disappointed because they informed us that the daily special was no longer available, which was odd because we were one of the first tables to be seated that evening. We chose the Hake as a substitute but after 90 mins we still weren’t served. In the meantime we did have the Terrine starter which was amazing as well as the Basil Smash as an apertif. Unfortunately though we never did get our main entree and left hungry two hours later.

Bell guy take us to our room and advise us mini bar is free, but didn’t clearly explain ontop is free and inside are charge. Poor communication to customer so we have to paid fair bit as we thought mini bar was free.

It is a beautiful property and we enjoyed our stay. One thing needing improvement would be the lighting inside the room, as it was rather dim.

Cozy beautiful boutique hotel Amazing view of the channel Perfect location , quiet and accessible to stores and restaurants The staff could have not been more kind

What a great stay from beginning to end. We were surprised with a bottle of wine in our room as we were celebrating or 25th Anniversary. All the staff every moment were friendly & exceptionally helpful. The hotel is historic & ever so charming in a great location. Walkable everywhere. Extra spaces to sit & read or play chess with a cocktail was perfect. Would definitely stay again.

Although we have stayed at the Ambassade twice before, this visit wowed us the most. Because my luggage didn't arrive when I did, both Lottie and Derek made several calls to Schipol when I didn't have any luck getting it. They persisted for days with a SMILE! Those two people behind the desk made a terrible situation much, much less terrible and were very impressive.
