We have stayed at The Sofitel, Legend, The Grand a number of times over the past years and have always been delighted with the standard of service and level of comfort within the hotel. The extremely warm welcome upon arrival was highlighted further, with an upgrade to a Suite with a Butler. Everything was perfect. The room was warm, spacious and cosy and had all the amenities we could have wished for, including fresh milk brought to our room for our tea and a wonderful view of the canal. We had dinner in Bridges and very much enjoyed the dining experience. Things have evolved with the menu and the restaurant since our previous visit, but it is still very good, made even more pleasant with the professional, yet warm and friendly service. We look forward to our next visit to Amsterdam and another opportunity to stay at Sofitel, The Grand.

The Legend is a masterpiece. It transports you back into time and it has everything you could possibly want or didn't even knew you needed like a feather bed, a butler who is there for every little/ big needs and wants or a breakfast with impeccable service quality and taste. The breakfast staff was attentive, caring and sweet with our preferences known from the moment we entered be like a flat white at the end or how we liked our eggs done. They upgraded us to a canal suite and if you can definitely choose this room with a direct access to the canal and streets outside. The suite was wonderful with a master bed, a luxurious bath, a living room and a full sized kitchen. Travelling with 2 kids is no small task but they were kind and ever smiling. I would really like to mention the people at the breakfast restaurant and our butler Carlos. Definitely definitely coming back.

This hotel is 5 star in every way. The location is excellent, just a few blocks from shops and restaurants on Dam Square, just outside the interesting Red Light District and facing the charming canals. The staff was wonderful, and accommodating in every way, from the Front Desk to the Concierge and others. The breakfast was fantastic, delicious and everything you could want to start the day. The beds were comfortable and the room large enough for me to share with a friend. Highly recommend!

The Grand is an oasis of refinement in the heart of Amsterdam. Service is dedicated and on point. Loved the room, the bed and got just the right pillow to enjoy my rest after days of visiting museums, galleries, shopping and city walks. The Grand is rather expensive, though is totally worth it.

Just excellent. Staff always willing to go the extra mile. Wonderful service staff and housekeeping. Already stayed a couple of times and looking forward for my return in April. Great amenities and feeling of home away from home. No other hotel.

The Sofitel Grand was an ok property. Upon check, I asked about an upgrade, if available, (per your website), they said they gave me an upgrade to a canal view. A very small dark room. Not at all what I expected, a true disappointment!
