Description
The hotel is situated only a few minutes away from Dam Square and many historical and cultural tourist sights. It is within walking distance of the Rembrandtplein, with its vibrant nightlife and is just a stone's throw away from one of the best known shopping streets of Amsterdam: the Kalverstraat. The Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam is an ideal choice of accommodation for those who love ease and sheer luxury in all aspects.
Behind the grand façade of these historic premises lies a unique hotel. The award-winning interior created by the French architect Sybille de Margerie combines modern design with authentic features. All rooms are individually furnished and come with a luxurious bathroom with a walk-in rain shower or bath. Each room also has a Sofitel MyBed, a LCD flatscreen television, Bose sound system, air conditioning, a well-stocked minibar, espresso machine, safe and a hairdryer. A newspaper of choice is delivered to your room each morning.
Besides the luxurious rooms, there are also 17 multifunctional rooms equipped with every modern technical amenity. Here you can hold a meeting, a party or a dinner in a very exclusive setting. One of the rooms, the Council Chamber, was used in 1966 as the backdrop for the wedding celebrations of Queen Beatrix and Prince Claus.
The hotel's magic is emphasised again when you enter the lovely inner courtyard. Here you can lunch, dine or enjoy afternoon tea if weather permits. Furthermore, you can discover culinary enjoyment at the Restaurant Bridges, or in the elegant Cocktail & Raw bar, after which you can relax in the SoSPA spa. Here you'll find a heated indoor swimming pool with a jacuzzi, a sauna, a Turkish steam bath, two treatment rooms and a gym. You'll want for nothing while you stay at Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam.
