Canal House — rooms

Rooms

Dark timber floors and silk wallpapers frame open-plan Bisazza mosaic bathrooms, with freestanding Philippe Starck soaking tubs facing the Keizersgracht.

Canal House — backstory

Backstory

Three 1640s merchant houses were converted in the 1950s by an American collector who filled the salons with Dutch antiques.

Canal House — eat & drink

Eat & drink

Mornings begin beside historic fireplaces in the Great Room, before the intimate bar stirs Dutch spirits and botanical gin tonics by evening.

The neighborhood

Set along the Keizersgracht, the Jordaan’s labyrinth of indie boutiques, art galleries, and lively corner brown cafés sits just across the water.
