Spinoza Suites

Spinoza Suites is housed in a characteristic and monumental building on the Singelgracht, on the edge of the center of Amsterdam. There are two suites, the Canal suite overlooking the canal and the Garden suite overlooking the green inner garden. The suites were designed by the Belgian architect Aldo Chermanne, who is based in Stockholm. His Scandinavian influence is reflected in, among other things, the rare green marble from Northern Sweden and can be found in the luxurious bathrooms with rain shower and underfloor heating.

The atmosphere of the suites can be described as retro design with an edge, a lot of natural materials such as oak herringbone floors and wooden paneling have been used. Spinoza Suites also works with top brands such as Flos for the lighting, Auping for the wonderful beds and Marie-Stella-Maris for the more than delightful care products. The suites include a sitting area, a desk to work on, a flat screen television, a laptop safe, a complementary minibar and coffee and tea making facilities with free coffee and tea.

Breakfast is optionally served in the adjacent 5-star Hyatt Regency hotel, where you can also use the gym and health spa for a small additional cost.

History

The mansion that houses Spinoza Suites was built in 1873 by the Dutch architect H. Overeem as a family home in the Plantage / Weesperbuurt. This area was already enclosed by the city walls in 1663, but it took almost 200 years before it was built, making it the only 19th-century urban development in the center of the city. As part of the former Jewish Quarter, the Second World War left deep marks in the area.
