My room at The Diamond Amsterdam felt like a cozy retreat, thoughtfully designed for comfort after a day of exploring. The plush Queen bed invited relaxation, and the tasteful decor created a serene atmosphere. While the high-quality bathrobes and complimentary bottled water added a touch of luxury, I did find the room to be quite compact, leaving limited space for luggage or storing clothes. A small detail, but the absence of a towel holder was noticeable. Despite these practical considerations, the comfortable bed and the city views from some rooms certainly made mornings feel tranquil, and the premium toiletries were a pleasant amenity.

Dining at The Diamond Amsterdam offered a delightful culinary experience, with the on-site restaurant serving a diverse menu of local Dutch and international cuisine that felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared.

Upon arrival, receiving complimentary drink tokens was a charming touch, inviting me to unwind at the bar. Beyond the hotel’s offerings, the surrounding neighborhood brimmed with choices, from popular pancake spots like Omelegg and MOAK Pancakes to savory options like ROBO-BAR Asian Grill & Sushi, ensuring every craving could be satisfied.

My room at Hotel Estherea was a delightful discovery, each space thoughtfully designed with its own unique character, offering a truly cozy and inviting atmosphere. The plush furnishings and luxurious bedding created a comforting haven, perfect for unwinding. While some rooms offer enchanting canal views, a few guests have noted that the rooms can be on the smaller side, and occasionally, a ‘double’ bed might actually be two twin beds pushed together. Despite these small observations, the presence of amenities like air conditioning, a refrigerator, and even a fireplace in select rooms truly elevated the sense of comfort and home.
