With its enchanting courtyard and relaxing spa, this grand 5-star hotel offers a peaceful retreat in the centre of bustling Amsterdam.


Just a few minutes from Dam Square, The Grand Amsterdam is located in between 2 canals which link the port to the Amstel River. While retaining the soul of a historical monument, The Grand – converted into a hotel only in 1992 – offers you the highest standard of modern facilities.

Taste refined cuisine in The Grand Restaurant and unwind in the elegant bar. The spa provides you with a heated swimming pool, sauna and Turkish bath. The luxurious rooms and suites offer first-class elegance and comfort for your pleasant city trip.
The Grand Amsterdam building has a very rich history. It has been a convent in the 15th century, a Royal Inn during the 16th century and the headquarters for the Dutch Admiralty in the 17th century (the Golden Age of the Netherlands). In 1966 it was the setting for the wedding of Her Majesty the Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands. The Grand has certainly left its mark on the history of Amsterdam.
