Amsterdam is a city of many charms, from its iconic canals to the bicycles that pass over them. It seems appropriate when visiting the Venice of the North to stay in a hotel that’s equally charming. The Pulitzer Hotel Amsterdam definitely fits the bill, being a collection of twenty five 17th and 18th century townhouses located around a lovely courtyard garden. The hotel takes its name from Peter Pulitzer, the grandson of Pulitzer Prize founder Joseph Pulitzer, who purchased 12 houses and created the first five star hotel in Amsterdam. In keeping with the literary connection, books are dotted around the communal areas and guest rooms. Many of the bedrooms and suites have canal views and they all have oodles of style thanks to a recent refurbishment.
First Impressions of The Pulitzer Hotel Amsterdam Walking into the lobby, you’re immediately struck by the sense of space and quirky decor. The entrance is in a new building designed to blend perfectly with the Pulitzer’s existing historic townhouses. There’s a grand piano suspended from the ceiling and colourful seating dotted around.

I had been invited to Amsterdam to speak at eTravel Europe about working with influencers and a calm haven like The Pulitzer was the perfect place in which to prepare.

Accommodation
Our spacious canal-side room had very colorful decor and every amenity you could wish for. No wonder it’s considered to be one of the best luxury hotels in Amsterdam.
