De Oost
InterContinental Amstel
- T+L 500 (2012)
-
The Intercontinental hotel along the Amstel River in Amsterdam is easy to mistake as royal palace. Opened in 1867, the four-story, yellow and red brick, neo-Renaissance building now hosts guests in 79 rooms exquisitely decorated with Oriental rugs, antique furniture, brocade wallpaper, sash windows, marble bathrooms, and fresh tulips each day. Amenities include an on-site spa with a heated indoor pool, Turkish bath, sauna, and massage services, while the Michelin-starred La Rive restaurant serves up French-Mediterranean cuisine and romantic views of the river on the ground floor.
Room to Book:
Ask for a room on the west side of the hotel (the higher the better) for the best view of the river and city.
Insider Tip:
Reserve a seat at the afternoon English tea service in the Amstel Lounge, which includes a wide assortment of gourmet finger sandwiches, cakes, creams, jams, and bonbons.
