About W Amsterdam

W Amsterdam spans two landmark buildings a few steps from the Dam: the former KAS Bank and the old telephone exchange of the Royal Dutch Post. Its 238 rooms and suites look over the old centre. The Duchess restaurant fills the bank’s grand hall, W Lounge on the sixth floor looks over the Royal Palace, and the WET Deck pool sits on the roof of the exchange building, with a spa pool in the bank’s basement.
