Hotel Banks Mansion
Tucked into a converted Amsterdam mansion steps from the flower market, Banks Mansion earns its devoted following through a warmly sociable lobby that doubles as a living room, where staff save cheese platters for late-returning guests, the self-serve bar draws strangers into easy conversation at the wine and cheese hour, and a breakfast kitchen turns out fresh omelets, poffertjes, and pancakes each morning with the kind of unhurried, personal attention that makes guests return twice on the same European trip.
