Overview
Overlooking one of Amsterdam’s oldest canals, The Hotel Estheréa is a “gorgeously designed and cozy” option in a charming setting on the Singel canal, says Fodor’s. The location is as central as it is picturesque, around 10 minutes on foot from Anne Frank’s House in one direction and Dam Square in the other. The Rijksmuseum, described by The Guardian as “the Dutch answer to the Louvre”, is a 20-minute stroll away, or guests can hop aboard a tram from Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal street (two blocks from the hotel) to reach the museum in 10 minutes flat.
The 17th-century property is privately owned and has been run by the same family since its early days as a 12-room B&B in the 1940s. Now with 71 rooms, spread across six interconnected townhouses, the hotel’s décor has been updated with bold colours, chandeliers, floral wallpaper and eclectic anqiques creating a chic finish. Smaller rooms overlook the well-tended inner courtyards, while some Deluxe Rooms face the scenic Spuistraat street to the rear of the hotel. Unusually for older Amsterdam properties, all floors are accessible by an elevator. Upgrade to a Canal View Room for views over the UNESCO-listed waterway.
A full continental buffet breakfast, plus scrambled eggs, sausages bacon and waffles, is served in the breakfast room every day, and lunchtime sandwiches and hot dinners are available via room service. Guests can relax with a paper in the library or canalside lounge, where free coffee and tea are served throughout the day. A 24-hour bar, compact gym and underground parking are also available.
