Scene
Quirky, colorful decor and boutique comfort
The interiors of the intimate, three-floor Sebastian's are downright theatrical, especially the lobby, with its backlit bar and orange and purple color combo. Hallways continue the orange-and-purple scheme, and chandeliers hang in some hallways. The 34 stylish rooms are done in similarly rich colors. Sebastian's draws mostly tourists, who congregate at its breakfast buffet and in the bar/cafe. The hotel is ideal for travelers who want boutique comfort on the canal in "old Amsterdam" near the bustling Jordaan.
Location
A canal-side location, which is a short stroll from the Jordaan and Anne Frank House.
Sebastian's is located right on the Keizersgracht, one of Amsterdam's most picturesque canals, which is part of the 17th-century Canal Ring that has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site. A short walk west is the charming Jordaan District and its gardens, art galleries, specialty shops, restaurants, cafes, and outdoor markets. The Anne Frank House and Westerkerk Church are about a half mile south, Dam Square is about a half mile southeast, and the area with the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, and Stedelijk Museum is about one and a half miles south. Centraal Station and its major train and tram hub is about a 10-minutute walk east of Sebastian's. Schiphol Amsterdam Airport is 17 and a half miles southwest.
Rooms
Stylish boutique rooms with flat-screen TVs and iPod docks
Sebastian's 34 boutique rooms are almost "boudoir" in their style, with their dark feel and rich colors of rust, orange, rose, wine, purple, navy blue, and chocolate brown. Those who want more natural light should ask for an upper-floor room. Rooms are decked out with free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, and coffee/tea makers. Some rooms have canal views, and others have views of the neighboring courtyard gardens.
Features
A breakfast buffet and bar/cafe with lunch and dinner items
