On the one hand, it would seem that the Waldorf may provide more spacious accommodations based on available room photos and having stayed twice in the past, whereas De L'Europe has just come out of a total refresh rendering nearly all traveler photos found online to be of no help coupled with a lack of recent postings as a result of the pandemic. The hotel's website lists Junior Suites at 40-50 square meters, but provides a photo that gives no perspective as to the actual room layout--in fact, none of the room photos on the website are particularly helpful. By any chance did you get to see the Junior Suite category during your site visit? I'm keen to try something new in Amsterdam, and from what I've researched De L'Europe is highly regarded, but I'm concerned that the Junior Suites might be still be a little too tight over a 6 night stay and should perhaps stick with the Waldorf where I at least know what to expect more or less? Any additional insight you might have would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
