- Around the corner from the largest market in the country
- The hotel "cemented De Pijp as Amsterdam’s coolest neighbourhood" (Stylist)
Overview
Described by Wallpaper* as “an unlikely hotel experience,” Sir Albert Hotel Amsterdam may be one of the city’s newer hotels, but clever touches make it feel more like an aristocrat’s townhouse.
The canal-side property used to be a diamond factory and is situated in the hip Oude Pijp neighborhood (Amsterdam’s Latin Quarter). The old Heineken brewery is nearby, and there are numerous restaurants, cafes and bars to explore. Around the corner is Albert Cuyp Market, the largest street market in the country, and the Rijksmuseum is a 10-minute walk away.
The minimalist Japanese restaurant Izakaya is run by former Nobu chef Hariprasad Shetty, who conjures up sashimi, small plates served in a hot hibachi charcoal bowl and wasabi lobster cooked on the robata open grill. There’s also a good range of shochu cocktails to try and a street-side terrace overlooking the canal.
Rooms are darkly handsome, with sharp black furniture, contrasting crisp white bed linens and beautiful Persian carpets. High ceilings and large windows make the most of the light, and all come with rainfall showers. Suites are larger and have Philippe Starck bathtubs.
Most impressive of all are the exclusive Residences, which come with a spacious living room and two bathrooms.

The hotel itself is perfectly situated within Amsterdam. Only several metres away from a traditional and thriving food market, as well as trendy coffee shops/ bars and the canals. Being so perfectly based, it made our first-time travels to Amsterdam that more enjoyable. The hotel itself was very trendy, and had a great atmosphere from the main lobby, to the restaurant. All the staff were extremely helpful, and offered some greats tips for first-comers.

The daily breakfast was fantastic, we enjoyed the buffet on the first morning, and then the selected breakfast from the main menu on the last day. We unfortunately weren't made aware, that this menu was included, as part of the daily breakfast "exclusive extra". Although we didn't receive an upgrade, the room was fabulous, and the bed was ever-so comfortable. Only annoyance was that the TV wasn't working - which was a shame. All in all, our experience was extremely pleasant, and our stay was enjoyable and memorable. I will be recommending to "dam" visitors, and may return one day myself in the future.
