當(dāng)汽車沿著縱橫交錯(cuò)的運(yùn)河輾轉(zhuǎn)行駛停在了阿姆斯特丹安達(dá)仕酒店門口,那一瞬間我是狐疑的,我知道將進(jìn)入一個(gè)夢(mèng)幻世界,可眼前的這個(gè)紅磚建筑,看起來(lái)還真是有點(diǎn)其貌不揚(yáng)。
但我的那一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)狐疑,在通過(guò)酒店長(zhǎng)廊進(jìn)入到大堂的時(shí)候,卻完全的、徹底的消失了。午后的陽(yáng)光,透過(guò)大堂的天花玻璃,與一長(zhǎng)串天外來(lái)物般的燈具,產(chǎn)生了某種匪夷所思的化學(xué)反應(yīng),一直向上看,便仿佛去往了另一個(gè)星球。
作為凱悅(Hyatt)旗下的潮牌,安達(dá)仕(Andaz)一向以打造“靈感創(chuàng)意殿堂”為理念,致力成為藝術(shù)靈感的催化劑,因此,藝術(shù)已成為其酒店一個(gè)重要組成部分。而提煉出當(dāng)?shù)仫L(fēng)情的精粹, 使住客即使在短暫停留期間也能融入當(dāng)?shù)?,感悟每座城市?dú)特的魅力本源,也是安達(dá)仕品牌的另一大魅力所在。
When the car stopped by Amsterdam Andaz hotel entrance after a long drive along the crisscross canals, I had a moment of doubt. I know I will enter a fantastical world, but somehow this red brick building looks somewhat unimposing.
But my little suspicion completely disappeared when I entered the lobby through the hotel corridor. Through the lobby ceiling glass, the afternoon sun and a long string of foreign lamps, together produced a fantastic chemical reaction, that when one looked up, one seemed to have arrived at another planet.
As the trendy brand under Hyatt, Andaz's philosophy has always been to create \"A Temple for creative inspiration\". Andaz aims to become the catalyst of inspiration so that art is an integral part of the hotel. Refined local essence has been extracted properly, so that the guests can blend in and feel the city's unique charm easily even when just making a short stay. This is another big charm to Andaz brand.

馬塞爾·萬(wàn)德斯(Marcel Wanders)是阿姆斯特丹安達(dá)仕的設(shè)計(jì)師,這位50多歲的荷蘭設(shè)計(jì)師是業(yè)界赫赫有名的“頑童”,英俊、瘋狂、風(fēng)趣是其招牌,英國(guó)雜志《Sleeper》稱他“風(fēng)趣但不兒戲,好玩但很睿智”。他的作品不只是設(shè)計(jì),更可以改變世界。
整個(gè)酒店的設(shè)計(jì)看似離經(jīng)判道卻充滿想象,前臺(tái)check-in的三張白色小圓桌,大堂這些古靈精怪的燈具,SPA走廊里的招財(cái)貓,分布于酒店各個(gè)角落的雕塑,酒店的每一處都很迷人,很驚艷。
安達(dá)仕酒店建于阿姆斯特丹王子運(yùn)河公共圖書(shū)館的原址基礎(chǔ)上,整個(gè)酒店自然保留了書(shū)香之氣。通往客房的電梯,在剛剛啟動(dòng)時(shí),便可以看到圖書(shū)墻,提醒這個(gè)建筑曾經(jīng)用作圖書(shū)館的過(guò)往。書(shū)、魚(yú)、代爾夫特藍(lán)是酒店房間的主題。初入房間,床頭墻壁上巨大的魚(yú)圖案馬上帶給你視覺(jué)沖擊力;而窗臺(tái)一側(cè)和床頭柜上看上去岌岌可危的盤子,造型如一本合上的書(shū)的書(shū)桌,桌上的荷蘭木鞋,代爾夫特陶碗臉盆上的印花圖案,衛(wèi)生間印著五花八門的歷史圖像與格言警句的墻紙,這一切無(wú)不彰顯著酒店設(shè)計(jì)師馬塞爾·萬(wàn)德斯的前衛(wèi)與古怪。后來(lái)酒店公關(guān)部總監(jiān)告訴我才知道這位設(shè)計(jì)師認(rèn)為魚(yú)是阿姆斯特丹的吉祥物,所以酒店的每個(gè)房間有6種魚(yú)可以選,而代爾夫特陶碗臉盆上的每一幅印花圖案,則都是由他本人親手繪就的。
在阿姆斯特丹安達(dá)仕酒店,無(wú)論是陽(yáng)光明媚的清晨在Blue spoon餐廳用早餐,還是午后在圖書(shū)館小憩品一杯紅酒,看著窗外后花園的繡球花與熏衣草在微風(fēng)中搖曳,或運(yùn)河的波光滟影,那種寧?kù)o與美妙,有著家一般的溫馨,恍惚的剎那,真有“居住”于此的穿越之感。
Marcel Wanders is the designer of Amsterdam Andaz, this 50 year old Holland designer has a reputation of being rather \"naughty\", and is famous for being handsome, crazy and funny. The British magazine \"Sleeper\" said he is \"humorous but not trifling, fun but very wise\". His works are not only designs, but possess the ability to change the world.
The design of the entire hotel is seemingly unconventional yet full of imagination; the three white round tables at the check-in desk, the eccentric furniture in the lobby, Japanese Lucky Cat in the SPA hallway and the sculptures distributed in every corner of the hotel, making every corner of the hotel adorably charming.
Andaz hotel was once the public library building overlooking the Prinsengracht (Prince's Canal), and this explains why the entire hotel retains a nice bookish atmosphere. When the elevator to the room activates, on can see the book wall, which acts like a reminder of the building's former identity as a library. Books, fish, Delft blue are all themes of the hotel. At first, the huge fish pattern in the room brings immediate visual impact. By the window side and the side of the bed, there is the dangerous-looking mirror-plate duo; the writing table that shaped like a closed book and the wooden clogs situated on top of it; the pattern printed on the Holland Delft pottery washbasin; the toilet wallpaper printed with historical images and aphorisms of a wide variety; all reveals the avant-garde and eccentric character of Marcel Wanders. Later the hotel PR Director told me that Marcel Wanders thinks that fish is the mascot of Amsterdam, so each hotel room has 6 kinds of fish patterns to choose from, and every piece of print on the Delft pottery washbasin is a personal hand-drawn design of Marcel Wanders.
In Andaz Amsterdam, one may be breakfasting at Blue spoon restaurant on a sunny morning, or enjoying a glass of wine in the afternoon in the library, and look out of the window to the hydrangea and lavender garden in the breeze, or the quiet and beautiful canal water, and it all just feels like home. For a moment, I almost felt that \"I actually lived here\".
