Stay in Amsterdam's coolest and most eccentric new five-star hotel - including bed, breakfast and plenty of extras
A hip and outlandish five-star hotel with a dead-central location, the Andaz Amsterdam Prinsengracht opened in 2012 in a building that once served as the public library of Amsterdam. On the subject of literature, the Andaz could easily provide the set to a scene from Alice in Wonderland. Acclaimed designer Marcel Wanders (dubbed the Lady Gaga of interiors) has blended Dutch iconography with gigantic bells suspended from the lobby ceiling, a striking display of intergalactic lighting and a tribute to some form of art in every corner of the hotel - including video installations playing on loop in the hallways and painted wall murals in the garden.
With so many aesthetic reasons to love this brand-new Andaz, it's good to know that this luxury hotel has style and substance by the bucketload. There's a relaxed lounge space in the heart of the hotel, the Bluespoon bar whips up expertly mixed drinks and the sleek Bluespoon restaurant does fine dining with a wholesome farm-to-table vibe. You'll also stumble upon a beautiful spa offering plenty of squishy spaces to chill out in and a 24-hour gym with state-of-the-art equipment.
