Rosewood Amsterdam

What the classifiers highlight

The old Palace of Justice on the Prinsengracht, a 17th-century canal-side landmark, now holds the Rosewood, its interiors set by designer Piet Boon with roughly a thousand original artworks. Suites spread wider than standard rooms, and the Houses run properly residential, each with its own butler. A Grand Library anchors the lobby, and restaurant Eeuwen serves creative cuisine.
