Hotel Description

Location. Set in a corner building with a neo- classical columned façade, the chic Art Deco-influenced Banks Mansion Hotel opened in 2004 and overlooks the Herengracht canal, one kilometre south of Amsterdam's Centraal Station. The nearest airport is Amsterdam Schiphol Aurport, 20 kilometres from the hotel.
Hotel Features. Adjacent to a typical Amsterdam canal bridge, guests enter this previous bank building through a corner entrance. Inside, the sophisticated 1920s-style lobby features leaded stained glass, rich wood panelling, and Art Deco motifs. Clusters of wood-framed armchairs and sofas accommodate a mixture of weekday business and weekend leisure guests, who relax by the fireplace while the enjoying canal views. Those needing to catch up with work can make us of the complimentary Internet corner with two PCs; wireless Internet is available throughout the hotel.

Guests of the Banks Mansion can start their morning tucking into breakfast in The Kitchen, offering a hot and cold buffet and open kitchen area in home-style surroundings. During the day visitors lounge in the lobby area taking advantage of an unlimited buffet of drinks and snacks.

Two popular forms of recreation and ways to explore Amsterdam are cycling and boating, both of which can be found a block from the hotel.

Guestrooms. Spread across four floors, the Banks Mansion Hotel's 51 guestrooms are characterised by a blend of Amsterdam School, Berlage, and Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired design. Work areas comprise desks with leather swivel chairs and high-speed Internet ports, while flatscreen televisions include satellite channels, complimentary in-house movies, surround-sound speakers, and CD and DVD players.

Expert Tip. Visitors keen to experience the real Old Amsterdam should head over the bridge towards Prinsengracht. Most of the canal houses on this stretch were built during the Dutch Golden Age, characterised by charming narrow streets, slender canals, and many fine examples of 17th-century architecture.

Fees:
Please note that a city tax, to be paid at check-out, may apply to this booking. This charge is not included in the rates.
