Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam

Iconic hotel, where heritage meets modernity

Located between two gentle canals in the heart of the city, The Grand boasts a rich history, from a 15th-century convent to royal lodgings, to the headquarters of the Admiralty to the City Hall of Amsterdam. The hotel offers five-star luxury in a unique ambiance, furnished with French elegance and grandeur. The spacious accommodations, the exceptional food and beverage proposition, the historic meeting and event venues and the indulgent Sofitel SPA captivate and seduce everyone into visiting this hotel.

The Grand is based in the heart of the historical city centre. Many attractions are just a short walk from the hotel, including Dam Square, Madame Tussauds and de Bijenkorf. Just a short tram ride away, you'll find the Anne Frank House and iconic museums such as the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum. A boat trip on the Amsterdam canals is highly recommended.

The hotel is easily reachable by public transport and Amsterdam's central train station is just a 10-minute walk.

Welcome to Sofitel Legend The Grand Amsterdam, where history meets five-star luxury. Experience French elegance with an Amsterdam spirit, refined dining, wellness, and iconic landmarks just steps away in the heart of the city.
