Park House Hotel Museum Quarter, Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy
This is a traditional terraced Amsterdam building, so it's not as wide open as a purpose built hotel. That just gives it charm. The location is fantastic for exploring Amsterdam.

Bilderberg Garden Hotel
Clean room, friendly staff, great bar service, basic breakfast and very few vegetarian choices for dinner. Shower drain was slightly blocked. Overall a comfortable stay.
