Frommer's Review

Named after the famous 17th-century Dutch poet Joost van den Vondel, this hotel in six connected town houses has become one of Amsterdam's leading four-star hotels since its 1993 opening. Each room is named after one of Vondel's poems, like Lucifer and Solomon. Three of the first-floor rooms are ideal for travelers with disabilities. The furniture is solid, the rooms are spacious, the windows are soundproof, and the service is good. Vondel is comfortable, and it's in a quiet and popular area close to the museum area and Leidseplein.

Facilities:
Bar; bikes; room service; babysitting; all rooms smoke-free

About Our System

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.
