Waldorf Astoria
About
Waldorf Astoria
Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam occupies six magnificent 17th- and 18th-century canal palaces on the prestigious Herengracht. Behind the stately façades, monumental staircases, marble fireplaces and original architectural details are combined with the refined service for which Waldorf Astoria is known.
The hotel offers 93 elegant rooms, lofts and suites overlooking either the Herengracht or its remarkably peaceful private garden. Despite its central location, the atmosphere feels calm and exclusive. The garden, considered Amsterdam’s largest private hotel garden, is one of the property’s greatest surprises and creates a secluded retreat in the middle of the Canal District.
The Guerlain Spa is another highlight, offering personalised treatments alongside an indoor swimming pool, sauna and steam room. In 2026, Forbes Travel Guide named Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam the only hotel in the Netherlands to receive its prestigious Five-Star rating.
Goldfinch Brasserie serves classic local and international dishes with a contemporary twist. The elegant Peacock Lounge is known for its luxurious afternoon tea, while Vault Bar occupies the building’s former bank vault and serves creative cocktails and refined bar bites.
