Hotel the Exchange is an Amsterdam hotel with rooms that are literally fashionable. The hotel has 61 rooms that were all designed by graduates or alumni from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute. Each room is covered in fabric and is themed around a certain style or period.
The rooms in the Hotel the Exchange vary in luxury from one to five stars and themes. There is a Marie Antoinette-themed room along with an Emperor's New Clothes room. The fabric-covered walls are a departure from the typically "fashionable" hotels which mix chic decor with modern art. The rooms also stand out in that each one has a sewing machine and fabric should its guests become inspired to create their own clothing.
