“Great breakfast!”

Hotel Pulitzer, a Luxury Collection Hotel

4 of 5 stars
brighton
Jul 25, 2008

After 25 visits plus to Amsterdam we were pleased to get a great deal for the Pulitzer which has always been out of the price range I want to pay for a short city break.
The room was small for a 5 star hotel but bigger than most I have stayed at in Amsterdam. Bathroom was good size and the bed was massive! Very helpful staff and I have to say the choice at breakfast was superb, a full cooked or continental buffet is available together with breads, pastries, fresh fruit juices, meats and salmon!
Only downside is that the courtyard is used as a smoking area by guests because of the new smoking ban so if you are unfortunate you may find people disturbing your sleep in the morning at 6.00 am, they were drinking champagne however which may have contributed to the noise!
Overall I would go again at the same price of £125 a night, the hotel tarrif listed in the room was 525 euros per night for 2 with breakfast. ouch!!

    • Disliked — Overlooking the courtyard smoking area.

“Amsterdam Pulizter Hotel - Great hotel”

Hotel Pulitzer, a Luxury Collection Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Worcester, United Kingdom
Jul 24, 2008

You really feel you are in Amsterdam staying here, standard rooms are not huge but the character of the place makes up for this. Friendly and efficient staff, excellent location 5/10 mins to Dam Square area and 15 min walk in the other direction to the museums and shopping areas. The area around the hotel is definately upmarket, away from the noise and tourists of the more lively areas. I walked everywhere, didn't need to take public transport once. The only negatives I could find - the gym is tiny only 4 or 5 machines and the food is OK not brilliant but overall I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone. Good value for money for the price paid.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Good location in upmarket area
    • Disliked — Fairly small rooms

We stayed five nites at the Pulitzer this july--couldn't be better !
Fabulous location, wonderful room with top level amenities in every respect, and one of the most pleasantly staffed property we've ever enjoyed. Front desk/concierge/floor staff could not do enough, and always with a smile. Big bucks, and worth every penny.

“Delightful!”

Hotel Pulitzer, a Luxury Collection Hotel

Jul 8, 2008

The hotel was delightful, staff very helpful and courteous, and the location fantastic! We wish that we could have stayed longer! We also had a two level room.The hair dryer was in a strange place - attached to the desk drawer, The big problem with that was that the desk was on the 2nd level, accessed by a ladder type stair - very inconvenient. However, I requested a hair dryer and one arrived within minutes, so no problem. Breakfast buffet was very good, and all in all the stay was a lovely experience.

“Mosquito bites everywhere!!!”

Hotel Pulitzer, a Luxury Collection Hotel

Jul 7, 2008

We liked this hotel very much despite a few problems. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. Their business center had 2 computers with free internet access, and there is a 3rd one in the lobby area. There are lots of cozy nooks so if you're looking for a quiet area to be alone and read, talk with a mate, or for an area to play with small kids, this hotel is great for that too. The buffet breakfast was awesome! Location also very good, as previous posts have mentioned. Ten to fifteen minute walk to the Dam, 5 minutes to Ann Frank House (get tickets online or you'll wait FOREVER TO GET IN!!!). We had canal view rooms, and it was spectacular to see boats going by all the time. I have 3 complaints- the air conditioning was substandard, we awoke with dozens of bug bites because we had the window opened during the night one one of our nights, and even when it was closed, they must've still been in our room, and still awoke with dozens of bites the next morning. Thirdly, the bed is too small for two people. The comforter is so thick, it took the place of another person when you put it aside. Asked for a thinner blanket and they responded without issue. The cookies they leave in the room are quite nice, as is the turn town evening service with chocolates. Front desk recommended Long Pura for indonesain "rice table" meal and it was fantastic. Just around the corner from the hotel on Rosengracht. I can also recommed Amigos, an argentine steak house that was excellent and reasonably priced., also on Rosengracht. Skip the Tulip Museum just up the street from the hotel- waste of time.
