This three-star hotel is actually a trio of listed buildings and is in a quiet, picturesque spot where the Herengracht and Brouwersgracht canals meet. The reception area, with its copper ceiling and wall covering made of open books, doubles as a cosy bar. Moored outside is the hotel’s boat, which offers tours for €15pp. Bedrooms have wood-clad walls and retro details such as 1950s telephones and vintage lamps; several sleep three or four, making them suitable for families.
