Fodor's Expert Review Singel Hotel

Once merchants' abodes, these three quirky, charmingly lopsided 17th-century canal houses, near Centraal Station, now welcome guests in comfortably modern though fairly simple rooms with spare furnishings and black-and-white-photo print wallpaper of old Amsterdam. Single travelers take note: Singel Hotel still offers single rooms, a rare feature in Amsterdam hotels these days. Rooms in front have a view of the Singel canal through large sash windows. There’s also free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel.
