Nh Doelen Hotel

Amsterdam, Four Star

With just 85 rooms, the Nh Doelen Hotel has the feel of a private mansion. A domed clock crowns the impressive redbrick and stone building, originally part of the city's 16th-century ramparts. The six-story atrium lobby, ringed by galleries, features delicate molding, gold-leaf decoration, a grandfather clock, and grey marble floors. Over the years, the hotel has hosted such illustrious guests as Elisabeth Sissy, the 19th-century Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary. It is also at this site where Rembrandt purportedly painted his famous Nightwatch. The Doelen's quiet location on a side street in the center of town makes it a popular choice for vacationers and business travelers.
