PB hotel design editorial

Twenty-five Golden Age canal houses strung along the Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht form the physical fabric of the Pulitzer Amsterdam — a concatenation of seventeenth and eighteenth-century merchant buildings, each with its own gabled roofline and structural logic, knitted together behind the facades into a single 225-room hotel. The exterior image makes the layering legible: ornate neck gables and bell gables in warm brick sit alongside a newer dark-brick infill volume whose flush contemporary windows mark where the property was extended, the whole terrace presenting a compressed history of Amsterdam domestic architecture from the canal's edge. Inside, Concrete Amsterdam handled the interiors, working against the temptation to impose uniformity on such heterogeneous source material. The guest rooms in the historic houses retain white-painted timber beams and steeply pitched attic ceilings, furnished with curved grey chaises, mustard velvet Louis XVI-style chairs, tufted blush ottomans, and saffron bed runners — an eclectic palette that flatters rather than fights the irregular geometry. Rooms in the newer wing swap exposed beams for generous picture windows directly onto the canal-side elms, the darker, more tailored headboards and warm rose curtains giving them a quieter register. The ground-floor bar, wrapped in near-black panelling with gilded mirrors and clusters of opaline globe pendants above a faceted brass counter, pulls toward thirties jazz-club glamour, while the garden restaurant unfolds under a steel-and-glass conservatory roof, cane bistro chairs and marble tops opening toward a walled garden thick with climbing greenery.

"Our stay was amazing, we were staying at the Pulitzer hotel in Amsterdam where we had two rooms with amazing views and architecture closet bathrooms and lots of furniture and details. One thing we loved about this hotel was the view and the restaurant locations nearby. We also loved that the hotel had its own restaurant, bar, and buffet. The dinner and breakfast was also amazing ,because it included no just a buffet but the wait for a table was short for us and the sitting room was very comforting they had a table of croissants for the wait and water and matcha. The hotel also had many antiques which gave it a comforting effect. We had the two joint rooms 601 and 602. One of them had a beautiful view of the canal, and the other had beautiful furnished with curtains and more including a bycicle attached to the ceiling. They also had many paintings throughout the hotel. We also loved to see the greenhouse and the many plants everywhere outside. They had complimentary water sparkling and still. With dental kits, shower caps, and vanity kits. We also recommend doing the canal cruise. We did it at 8:00 at night it was very peaceful. As well as Albert's Cuyp where you can get Stroop waffles with caramel in the middle dipped in chocolate or not, either way their delicious. At Albert's you can also get Dutch fries which come with mayo and cheese and are delicious, you can get them at Fabien friet. We really enjoyed our stay and hope you enjoy yours too."

"Beautiful old hotel, but needs some renovation, especially the availability of outlets by the bed. They assumed we wanted an "accessible" room, so put us next to the elevator, which is very loud (mechanism and people loading/unloading). The hotel was full, so we couldn't move rooms until the second day. They were nice about it, but it was annoying. On the positive, the concierges, especially Giacomo Matozza and also Pieter Feith, were very helpful in planning itineraries and purchasing tickets during our stay (including small group canal tour through the hotel, Rijksmuseum, Heineken Experience and De Kas Restaurant for lunch). Would stay again."

"Loved the hotel. Well-situated in the heart of Amsterdam, on the busiest of the three original canals, the hotel offered a plush experience made possible by the exceptional staff. From welcoming check-in to helpful concierge, smiling restaurant staff (appreciated in the morning) and lovely housekeeping, these people were not only professional but personable and interested in making our stay in their city worthy of 5 stars. The room was small but that was expected. The food in the restaurants was excellent. The bar was cozy and nice. The neighborhood was great - run next door to Reel7 for a quick lunch or the exceptional banana bread or down the street to Vernal for dinner or walk a bit to Dominica to dine among local foodies. If you want a treat, book a food tour with Anne at Hungry Birds. And if you're feeling adventurous, get on one of the hotel's bikes out front. I mention all these because the hotel can hook you up big time as they did us. Relax while you're there, the Pulitzer has got you."

"Disappointing. Hotel staff was excellent (desk, concierge, bell station) but food and drink staff was lethargic. Painfully slow service, even though both times we experienced this, the venues were not busy. Good location, charming hotel and garden, but didn’t measure up to the reputation or the cost"

"We stayed at the Pulitzer as part of our year long celebrations for a major birthday for my wife, and the hotel is very central to everything and in a very scenic part of Amsterdam. We arrived way before check in, but we were told our room was ready, which was great as we weren’t expecting this at all. The lobby was very busy, and felt a bit chaotic. We had a bit of a wait being checked in but the staff were all super friendly and helpful. We were shown to our room, which was a bit of a trek, up in the lift, up some steps, across a walkway and down some more steps!! The room was clean, but quite small, nowhere really to put our cases, it was quite dark and extremely dated. We only opted for a standard room as we knew we’d be out and about most of the time, but still, I’d say the room was a bit sub standard to what we were expecting. We did think about seeing if we could pay to upgrade but decided against it. Breakfast was really good, again, extremely helpful and friendly staff, but on the second day, it again felt very chaotic and disorganised. There was around a 15 minute wait to be seated. A lot of the buffet bits were running out, and not being replenished but to be fair to the staff they were being run ragged trying to keep up, it was that busy. We visited the main bar one evening and that was really good with a buzzy atmosphere. Checkout, again, felt a bit chaotic with lots of people milling around but overall it was a decent stay. The hotel is generally very nice in a good location but just felt a bit lacking in certain areas, especially the room which desperately needs modernising."
