Park Plaza Victoria Amsterdam ReviewThe proprietors' idea is to give guests a five-star hotel at four-star rates -- and a great location. Since 1890, the elegant Victoria has been a turreted landmark at the head of the street called Damrak. It overlooks canal-boat piers and it can be noisy and tacky out on the busy, neon-lit street, but you won't notice that inside due to the double-glazed panes in the windows. This is as close as you can be to Centraal Station, where most of Amsterdam's trams begin and end their routes, and where you can board a train to other parts of Holland. The spacious rooms have been refurbished. Those in the new block inevitably lack some of the atmosphere of those in the old. Enjoy dinner at Park Plaza Brasserie's glassed-in terrace beside Damrak, or a quick lunch in Seasons Garden restaurant, with its Scandinavian decor.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
