In the know
- Our favourite rooms
- Room 123 is a double with a cute bay window looking onto the interior courtyard, with the bedroom on another level. Room 116 is a very spacious double room. Our favourite suite is room 101, with a freestanding bath in the middle of the bathroom.
- Also
- It is important to note that the staff is comprised of hospitality-industry students, so you may have to find yourself 'bearing with them'; service is not always the slickest.

College Hotel
Amsterdam, Netherlands[view map]
- Style
- Light, contemporary, buzzy
- Setting
- Lofty ex-schoolhouse
Amsterdam's College Hotel is easy on the eye and on the wallet. Imagine if an interior decorator from the East-meets-West school of design had been let loose at a posh prep school – the building has wonderfully high ceilings that reinforce its college credentials, a surprisingly relaxed elegant bar and a hugely popular restaurant occupies the former assembly hall. One important fact: rather appropriately, each member of staff is a student.
