Frommer's Review
The "Kras," located right on the Dam, began as the Wintertuin (Winter Garden) restaurant, founded in 1866 by a Polish tailor turned entrepreneur. Victorians sipped wine and nibbled pancakes beneath the hanging plants and lofty skylight ceiling, where breakfast and lunch are now served. This was Holland's first hotel to sport parquet floors, central heating, and electric lights. Since then, it has spread amoeba-like over four buildings, including one with a Japanese garden and another with a Dutch roof garden. Some rooms are small, while others have been converted into individually decorated apartments. Their state varies from worn to tastefully renovated. Since there are so many, I advise you to have a look at one first and retain an option to change one that's not suitable. The street alongside the hotel leads into the Red Light District, which may not be everyone's idea of the perfect evening stroll. Note: This hotel has been awarded a Green Key certificate for its environmental awareness and sustainable practices.
