Two nights for two people at The Ambassade Hotel in Amsterdam (#355)

Hotel History

The historic heart of Amsterdam is known for its beauty throughout the world. The canals with their stately seventeenth-century mansions contribute to Amsterdam’s traditional charm and are also appreciated as an important part of our cultural heritage. In 2010 the canal district was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. The placement on this list signifies international recognition of the unique value and beauty of the canal district. During both summer and winter, the enchantment of the canals attracts many visitors from all over the world, including a lot of international writers. The hotel has a wonderful library with a collection of more than 5.000 signed copies of all authors who’ve been there, for example José Saramago, Umberto Eco, Günter Grass, Isabel Allende and Mario Vargas Llosa.
