ITC Hotel Amsterdam

Über diesen Ort ITC Hotel Amsterdam

The ITC Hotel on the Prinsengracht is one of those rare hospitality operations that has maintained its identity and its reputation simultaneously for decades. A small canal-house hotel in the heart of Amsterdam's most beautiful canal ring, the ITC has been operating as an explicitly gay hotel since the 1980s and has built a loyal international following that returns year after year. The physical property is everything that Amsterdam canal-house accommodation should be: steep staircases, uneven floors, canal views from the upper rooms, and the specific atmosphere of a building from the seventeenth century that has been thoughtfully adapted for modern use. The hotel's gay identity is embedded in its culture rather than performed for marketing purposes — the staff are gay, the guest mix is gay, the atmosphere is the result of forty-plus years of serving the community rather than a recent rebranding exercise. The Prinsengracht location is one of the best in Amsterdam: ten minutes' walk from Reguliersdwarsstraat, five minutes from the Rijksmuseum and Vondelpark, and on one of the city's most scenic canals. Book well in advance for Pride week.
