The Hotel Toren, Hotel Estherea or Hotel BanksMansion in Amsterdam

Hi, does anyone have any thoughts about these three hotels in Amsterdam? My husband and I are going the end of August 2022 for two days prior to our Viking Rhine Cruise out of Amsterdam. Any recommendations or thoughts would be appreciated!

Although we always stay at L’ Ambassade, we have Dutch friends here in the US who always stay at the Hotel Estherea when they return to Amsterdam.

Pre covid 2 of us stayed at The Toren for one week. Right outside your door is the canal..nearby shops and restaurants..lovely breakfadt selection..central..walked at night late and felt safe. This was in March..enjoy Amsterdam!

We haven’t stayed at Hotel Estherea but my cousins stayed there a couple of years ago and absolutely raved about it. Convenient location, comfortable room, & excellent breakfast. They walked everywhere. They would stay there again.

We stayed at the Banks Mansion in 2018 for several days and it's been one of my favorite hotel experiences. One of its special features is an open bar and snacks throughout the day. Very welcoming, friendly, and conveniently located. A room with a canal view is definitely worth it.

I stayed at Hotel Estherea back in 2009. Loved the location.
