After its recent complete renovation, De L'Europe is now one of the very best hotels in Amsterdam. Mixing classic traditional with modern contemporary, the result is stunning. The rooms are all themed in different colours, some rooms are blue, others red, grey or white. Our junior suite was blue with a magnificent view over the Amstel river. Free use of an Ipad in the room, free wifi and ipod docking station and a Nespresso Machine were all included. The white marble bathroom had underfloor heating, a huge bathtub and rainforest walk-in shower. We did not try the restaurants but the open-kitchen concept of the Brasserie was attractive and the red-themed lobby bar, which also does afternoon-tea, was slightly quirky but stylish.
There is a small gym and indoor pool with view over the canal downstairs. The traditional dutch Freddies bar seemed popular with non-residents as well.
An excellent choice next to Muntplein at the top of Damrak means you are within walking distance of almost anywhere in Amsterdam.
