    Hotel help in a hurry.

    Hi all who are reading this.
    My daughter will be celebrating her 40Th birthday on this coming Sat. 9Th.
    her dad and me have booked a trip to Amsterdam for herself and her OH for the end of March. Unfortunately we haven't been able to secure a hotel for several reasons mostly because some plans have fallen through.
    If anyone can recommend a 4 or even a 5* hotel within walking distance from Dam Sq. I would be very grateful

    And when your back stops aching,
    And your hands begin to harden.
    You will find yourself a partner,
    In the glory of the garden.

    My younger sister has been to Amsterdam a couple of times, so I'll drop her a line and ask if she knows of anywhere. Can't guarantee speed of response though cos she is on board ship at present.

      how much of a hurry? PM Incy, I know she stayed in the Netherlands, but know not where...
      Never test the depth of the water with both feet

      The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

      Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

        Bramble, I would give the thumbs up to the Barbizon Palace. We stayed there a while back, It's 5 star and in a fab location.

        Here's a few other options....

          I'm afraid the one we stayed in that was lovely doesn't seem to be on either expedia or trip advisor. The other one we stayed in I wouldn't recommend.

            Thanks to you all, you're great.
            The trip is not until the end of March, but I wanted to present her with all the details on Sat. as it is her 40th., but if I have to wait for a little longer, so be it.
            Amanda, will certainly look into The Barbizon Palace, thanks for that.

              Hi Bramble,
              I lived in The Netherlands for a couple of years but was in The Hague rather than Amsterdam so haven't stayed in any hotels there. However the company I work for has a list of recommended 4* and 5* hotels for it's staff to use. These have usually been checked by our travel folk so should be pretty reliable. Here's the list for the city centre:
              Crowne Plaza Amsterdam City Centre
              Swissotel
              Renaissance Amsterdam Hotel
              IBIS Amsterdam Centre
              Golden tulip Amsterdam Centre
              The Convent Hotel Amsterdam Mgallery Collect
              Moevenpick Amsterdam City Centre

              Hopefully these links will help.

                I've stayed at "The Golden Tulip" - it was excellent.
