W HOTEL: AMSTERDAM
We’re never too interested in outdoor pools in city centre hotels but if you are urged to take a dip then W’s rooftop offer is probably one of the best places to go. With views over the Dutch rooftops, you may as well just relax and order a cocktail while you are there.
Split into two halves, (directly across a road from each other) one-half is (especially for Amsterdam) an unassuming block that hides a stylish interior of black and gold with a good smattering of honeycomb hexagon shapes. Opposite, inside the much grander old bank are part stylish store, spa (with vault doors still in use) and the rest of the hotel’s rooms.
Everything at W is stylish but at the Amsterdam offer, there is also a more friendly casualness. The rooms are large with wide windows, obligatory bare concrete floor and ceilings and a good selection of soft fluoro furnishings just to help brighten up the grey.
A must visit is Mr Porter for breakfast – it’s a health freak’s dream. A colourful display of freshly prepared vegetables, herring, salmon and veg juices leave you more than prepared for whatever Amsterdam has to throw at you.
W Hotel Amsterdam is a stylish and luxurious destination that offers guests a distinctive experience in the Dutch capital. While the hotel’s design and amenities are impressive, it is the dining, spa, and fitness services that elevate it to a higher level of sophistication.
The hotel boasts three dining options: Mr Porter, The Duchess, and W Lounge. Mr Porter is a modern steakhouse with a vibrant atmosphere, complemented by an extensive wine list. The Duchess serves contemporary French cuisine with an elegant and chic ambiance. W Lounge is a sleek and trendy cocktail bar with a varied selection of drinks and light bites.
The spa services at W Hotel Amsterdam are equally impressive, with a range of signature treatments, including massages, facials, and body scrubs, all designed to elevate guests’ relaxation and well-being. The hotel’s state-of-the-art fitness center is equipped with the latest equipment and provides a tranquil space for guests to work out during their stay.
W Hotel Amsterdam is an outstanding destination that offers guests a luxurious and contemporary experience.
A straight line from Centraal Station, W is right in the heart of the city and is perfect for fashionistas and art-loving explorers.
