Romantic weekend breaks at The Toren hotel, Amsterdam

Great ideas for a romantic weekend getaway at the Toren hotel in picturesque Amsterdam.

There are boutique hotels and then there's The Toren hotel in Amsterdam, perfect for romantic getaways or weekends in Amsterdam. 

Located in one of Amsterdam's grand 17th century canal houses on Keizergracht, the Emperor's Canal, the Toren Hotel is located amid the city's most romantic and picturesque areas – by day and by night.  

As one of the most elegant boutique hotels in the city, its claim "designed to charm," is not just a convenient marketing phrase. Original paintings on the ceiling by students of Van Gogh seamlessly blend into interior designer, Wim van de Oudeweetering's bold atmosphere.  Rich, luxurious décor in public areas and in the rooms/suites create a comfortable and elegant setting for visitors to the city and especially for those looking for a romantic place to stay.  

With a strong commitment to hospitality, the staff at The Toren aim to fulfill your requirements 24 hours a day with great romantic ideas for him or her, from room turn-down service to bottles of champagne, chocolate-dipped strawberries, specialty chocolate truffles, rose petals on the bed, or fruit upon your arrival.  It's nice to have a team to back you up to ensure that your romantic weekend goes perfectly.

Every room at The Toren is unique and stylish, with views of the lovely canals of Amsterdam or the garden.  Beautiful chandeliers, plush rich pillows, steam showers, and personal Nespresso machines come complete with each room. For the ultimate romantic night, book a suite at the Toren that includes a spacious whirlpool bath and Jacuzzi. There's no better way to finish a long day of sightseeing and exploring Amsterdam, than this: to sit back and relax in a warm bubble bath with jet sprays to ease your tired feet and muscles.  Specialty bath products along with plush bathrobes and slippers are the perfect finish.

A special arrangement between the Toren and the classic French restaurant, Restaurant Christophe, provides guests at the Toren with the possibility of ordering first-class dining in the hotel's lounge or for a romantic dinner in your room or suite. The staff at The Toren are also happy to suggest and help to make reservations at any number of romantic restaurants in Amsterdam.  Before the end of the night, be sure to visit the hotel's very sexy lounge for a drink or a game of chess. 

To top it all off, The Toren also offers boat rentals for couples who really want to have a romantic night. From small to large canal boats, with a skipper or without, The Toren can help you reserve a private canal boat ride at any time of the day or evening – dusk or during a sunset is unbeatable and will definitely score you points for romance!
