1. Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam
What is it? Set among the UNESCO World Heritage site, Herengracht, the Waldorf Astoria is made up of six 17th-century canal palaces. And yes, it's as magical as it sounds. It's also a five-star hotel in the heart of Amsterdam, just steps away from Rembrandtplein and the iconic street of PC Hooftstraat.
Why go? Aside from its five-star qualities from start to finish, amenities include elegantly-styled Dutch rooms and suites, often offering views of the canal, along with roomy bathrooms and free Wi-Fi throughout. Wine and dine yourself in the Spectrum or the Goldfinch Brasserie on-site, or head to Vault Bar for a cosy cocktail.
