The Pulitzer is the canal-house night, done at scale. MICHELIN gives it One Key for 223 rooms across 25 restored 17th-century houses on the Prinsengracht, with Restaurant Jansz. open all day and Pulitzer's Bar.
There's a 1909 teak-and-brass canal boat for excursions, per MICHELIN. That's the one splurge here that gets you onto the water before the ship does.
Forbes lists it as Recommended. Parking is self or valet with charges and no printed price, and pets come on request at €50 (about US$55) a day each.
Book it for an evening on the canals, not a quick hop to the ship. Our routing puts PTA about 1.9 road miles away, roughly 6 minutes, so book the taxi before bed.
Book it if
- You want a canal-house room
- A boat trip the evening before appeals
- You'd like an all-day restaurant downstairs
Look elsewhere if
- You want a pool.
- You need the parking price now.
- You want the hotel's own facts rather than MICHELIN's.
