More about NH Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky

What to expect: This hotel on Dam Square is constantly buzzing as conference attendees, business travelers, and vacationers mix in the lobby—a large, contemporary space appointed with warm woods, burgundy fabrics, and a profusion of plants. The NH Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky comprises a cluster of buildings; the main structure dates from 1866. The hotel has been completely modernized while preserving the historic façade and the Winter Garden. Over the decades, it has hosted stars of film and stage, Dutch royalty, and international dignitaries.
Amenity highlights: The gorgeous Winter Garden, with lofty glass ceiling, steel arches, glittering chandelier, and wrought-iron pillars, is the setting for breakfast and Sunday brunch (surcharge for both). The hotel’s signature waffles are available daily (surcharge); the recipe is from the original owner’s wife. Sophisticated cuisine from France’s Burgundy region is served at Restaurant Reflet, a Belle Époque room dating from 1885. Other dining options include a sushi bar and teppanyaki (grilled meats and vegetables) restaurant, which overlook a small Japanese garden.
Insider tip: The Magna Plaza shopping mall, converted from a 19th-century central post office, is just one block from the hotel, but guests looking to escape the crowds should visit the unusual boutiques of the 9 Straatjes (“9 Streets”) in the charming Jordaan district.
