From check in to check out the grand did not miss a beat. After an incredible 5 night stay they definitely left an impression. We choose to upgrade our room to a suite after our check in host showed us an incredible room. The robes were lush the bed was heavenly. The room was clean and welcoming. I used the concierge service to arrange a little surprise for my fiancé and they did not disappoint and made the experience special. The massage service at the spa was spot on and the room service was well manicured. The bar welcomed us for drinks and the bartenders prepared delicious curated cocktails. The location is right in the heart of the action but just enough steps away to afford you the peace you are looking for. We never used a taxi or uber as the location is incredible. This hotel really gave my fiancé and I a truly memorable experience

Great stay at Sofitel The Grand during my visit at an event in Amsterdam. Friendly and professional staff guide you through check-in. As during my stay, received a beautiful upgrade to suite. Spacious with seperate living room / sleep room, make you feel more comfortable and enjoyable. Delicious dining at the hotel restaurant Oriole and to finish the next morning with a hearty breakfast. Thank you for your hospitality and will come back in the next time.

Unique hotel in the middle of old Amsterdam. Thank you Niles, Marc and Valentine for your wonderful attention to our stay at The Grand. Fabulous location, private and quiet. Peter and Diane

We stayed one night after a river cruise and had a large enough room facing the interior courtyard. The room was quiet but the bed mattress was at the end of its life. Lighting for reading was only at the bed. The bathroom was large and convenient and the location close to Dam was fine but a ten minute walk from the tram stop. Service was fine but the room was only available at the check in time, which did not affect us because we scheduled a train trip for the day.

I’ve had a really wonderful stay at this hotel. The check in with Phillipo and Lea was seamless and Phillipo quickly organised tickets for me to the Van Gogh museum which was super kind and helpful. Lea has been amazing spoiling me and ensuring my stay has been perfect which it has. The room very comfortable the bed so cosy, everywhere spotless. Staff are very skilled at being there for you. I had a beautiful meal in their restaurant, again staff skilled kind, hard working and attentive. This is the third time in three years I’m in Amsterdam but my first stay at this hotel. I will 100% be back hopefully they will have space for me next year.

The Sofitel Grand was an ok property. Upon check, I asked about an upgrade, if available, (per your website), they said they gave me an upgrade to a canal view. A very small dark room. Not at all what I expected, a true disappointment!
