We were well-received at the front desk by pleasant front desk personnel. Butler and housekeeping were helpful and accommodating. The view of the canal made the room extra special. Beds were indulgent and sleep was the natural response despite jet lag. Breakfast at Bridges was something we looked forward to. It was always pleasant and Luca, the host, made us feel special every time. I loved the window seat looking out to the canal. I appreciated how the turn down service always included more than the usual chocolate, with an image of paintings on an easel and some information. Loved the Hermes amenities and the constant water supply. Great Wi-fi connection. Excellent location. Removed from the busy part but within proximity. Historic rooms made it particularly unique. I loved the garden and the public sitting rooms. The Grand Amsterdam is my hotel of choice when visiting this city.
