If you've been longing to spend a sunny day on warm sand, Amsterdam's urban beaches, colourful docks and grassy piers hold their own in the summer months.  If you're not tempted to take a dip in the famously clean water, toss your map and get purposely lost along the city's cobbled streets and narrow passageways, treating yourself to warm and gooey stroopwafels along the way.  For a stylish canvas to experience this historic Dutch capital, spend your nights at Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam, a collection of 17th- and 18th- century palaces situated right along the picturesque Herengracht canal.

Private Perks: Complimentary upgrade, £75 dining credit, complimentary daily breakfast for two, early check-in/late check-out, and more.
