Lovely Hotel and tips re Amsterdam
This is a lovely Hotel and would get 5 stars just for the Hotel. Overall I found it difficult to find Hotels in Amsterdam with accessible rooms. I use a standard size self propelling wheelchair and I had a conversation by email prior to coming about access, showers etc. The staff were very informative and helpful. The hotel itself has good access although doesn't have a disabled toilet in the public areas. The rooms are not specifically accessible rooms, however, the room was big enough for me to move around in my chair (standard size self propelling). The shower is completely level access and I could get my w/chair into the bathroom. There are no rails and no seat in the shower room, so because I knew this I took my shower stool with me. I was actually able to get my w/chair into the shower and then transfer onto the stool. We also used several trams while in Amsterdam and found them all to be wheelchair accessible. Disabled toilets in Amsterdam are scarce.
