De L'Europe Amsterdam

One of Amsterdam’s oldest hotels still run by the same family, this establishment has stood on the banks of the Amstel since 1896. Behind its Renaissance façade, the décor bridges the gap between the Flemish style evident in the choice of warm-toned fabrics and wallpapers, and the modernity of the furniture. Each room and suite has been designed as a singular space. Three restaurants – French, Italian and local – pay tribute to Europe. On request, the Concierge will organise a private tour of the Van Gogh Museum for you, and once you’re back you can round off the day with a treatment by Biologique Recherche.
