After rediscovering a decent cosmo at the art’otel, I’ve found myself yet another bar hangout in downtown Amsterdam, something similarly a bit above the ordinary. For a world-class city, I’d always wondered why the range of bars and hotels over here was rather lacking, but having discovered this place I’m feeling just a tad more hopeful. The fact that it’s walking distance from my workplace is not necessarily a plus — the Waldorf Astoria it may be, my thin wallet can still only handle so many €14 mojitos.
