Guide: Canal Houses, Museum Beds, and Waterfront Bases

Amsterdam hotels are really a choice of pace. Pulitzer and Ambassade give canal-house romance, Conservatorium owns the museum belt, Sir Adam makes Noord practical, Hoxton Lloyd softens the eastern docks, and Volkshotel keeps the trip lively and less expensive.
