Banks Mansion

Located on the Herengracht Canal, the Banks Mansion is a stately white-columned hotel housing 51 rooms, many of which display serene water views. Part of the Carlton brand, this Art Deco hotel opened in 2004 and retained the stained-glass windows from the building’s prior existence. Known for being all-inclusive, the property serves complimentary breakfast in The Kitchen, as well as gratis drinks and snacks from the mini-bar. A sociable living area has a modern fireplace, as well as electronic tablets for use. Bathrooms are decorated with black and white tiles; and rooms have modern furnishings and a choice of pillows.
