Description

Canal House Suites at Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam

Iconic hotel, where heritage meets modernity

Want to experience Amsterdam like a royal? The Canal House Suites at The Grand, including butler service, are the perfect place to enjoy the luxury of a five-star hotel while also experiencing the comfort of your private apartment.

Emmy Stoel, Hotel Manager

In the heart of the city, by two gentle canals and the Royal Palace, The Grand Canal House Suites boldly reinvents rich history: a legendary jewel among Amsterdam hotels. It is home to the acclaimed Bridges restaurant and garden terrace; to an award-winni ng spa; magnificent banqueting facilities including the Council Chamber. The history of this luxury Amsterdam hotel is deeply entwined with the city's past: 15th-century convent, royal lodgings, Dutch Admiralty headquarters, City Hall.

The Grand is based in the heart of the historical city centre. Many attractions are just a short walk from the hotel, including Dam Square, Madame Tussauds and de Bijenkorf. Just a short tram ride away, you'll find the Anne Frank House and iconic museums such as the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum. A boat trip on the Amsterdam canals is highly recommended.

Ideally located in the heart of the city centre, the hotel is surrounded by several tram and metro stations. Amsterdam's central train station is just 15-min walking distance away. By car, you can reach the city's bypass within several minutes.

The worst bed in my life…

castellaribergaglio Couples - 10/3/2022 TripAdvisor review

Majestic and well appointed hotel, strategic position in the centre of Amsterdam. Friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunately, the bed in the room was so soft and feathered that it sank and therefore did not allow a pleasant rest ... It gave me back pain. Such an uncomfortable bed frustrates everything else. Tasteless breakfast, not adequate for a 5 star. A real shame...

Perfect place to be

vangeet Couples - 10/3/2022 TripAdvisor review

A perfect room with birthday cake. Incredibly thoughtful. Staff very friendly and helpful. I also really enjoyed the spa and massage from Tina. My husband enjoyed the massage so much, he wants to come back soon.

An Absolutely Amazing and Fabulous Hotel

Justin D Couples - 9/29/2022 TripAdvisor review

This hotel embodies the level of quality of a five star hotel! From the moment we showed up till the time we left, we were treated fabulously! The staff are the best! Smiles and conversation no matter what time of day or how many times you walk by. Our bags were delivered and we were escorted to our room. The breakfast was amazing every morning. We had an issue with our dinner but the staff were eager to rectify the problem. We were so impressed with how we were treated there. Do not pass up an opportunity to stay here. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you for taking the time to provide such positive feedback following your recent visit to The Grand. We are delighted you enjoyed your visit, and to hear that everything met your expectations! We appreciate your kind words and I will share them with the entire team. We would like to thank you for your positive words and hope to see you again soon at Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam.

Grand and historic - with exceptional service to boot!

JGR001 Couples - 9/10/2022 TripAdvisor review

The location was terrific, right in the center of the city. The building was just that - grand! The rooms were great - very comfortable pillows, high quality comforter and towels. Staff were also exceptionally friendly and service-oriented, with great English skills, from reception, to housekeeping to breakfast servers. The maitre'd was fantastically friendly and bubbly and remembered who was who. They seemed short of staff for breakfast but that didn't prevent them from providing exceptional attention. The breakfast was exceptional - they had a menu from where every guest could order custom items and you could see the chefs present the food in artistic ways. In addition, they had all the usual food selection - cold cuts, breads, spreads, veggies, fruits, etc. Coffee was delivered in special silver pots; they brought you juices and water as well. Reception staff were equally very helpful and accommodating. I will book here again the next time!

First let me say how much of a pleasure it was to have you stay with us at Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam recently and thank you for taking the time to post a review on TripAdvisor. It’s with great pride that I read your kind words about our team, they get a lot of satisfaction from guests who show their appreciation. I have therefore shared your review with the entire team. Thanks again for your great compliments and we do hope you think back at your beautiful experience on your next visit to Amsterdam, and that you choose again for us.

First time Amsterdam visitors

janemO639ZR Families - 9/9/2022 TripAdvisor review

As a hotelier myself, I am probably more picky than the average guest and I cannot say enough wonderful things about this hotel. We stayed in a Superior room which had a lovely canal view, perfectly appointed with full-size Balmain bath products, fluffy robes, and comfortable beds with crisp white linens. The location is absolutely where you want to be especially as a first-time visitor. Emmy Stoel who is the general manager at this hotel deserves high praise for leading a team who delivers impeccable, professional, and friendly service, from the doormen to the front desk to the restaurant servers. Thanks to all of you for making our stay perfect in every way.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review here on TripAdvisor about your recent visit to Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam. It is our passion to provide all our guests with an unforgettable experience and therefore service is our top priority. I am pleased to learn that we have succeeded during your stay. We have shared these lovely comments with the team as your valuable feedback as hotelier yourself is much appreciated. We hope you think back at our beautiful rooms and our staff on your next visit to Amsterdam, and that you choose again for The Grand.
