"Staff, location and vibe of this hotel were fantastic."
Karen. AustraliaI went there several times and each time different. It seemed to be a place that large groups started or ended on. Saw many and varied forms of entertainment along with huge flocks of Pidgeons, similar to in Venice. They also had them perched on their heads hands and arms. Interesting place!
There are tram stations for many directions, shops, restaurants, bars, and hotels. You can enjoy small amusement park attractions inside Dam Square. For my five nights stay, 5 day-ticket was very good to use tram for central station, museums, sightseeing spots. No need to buy OV-card for short stay.
Dam Square is great but if you want a coffee or drink then go one or two streets away. We treated ourselves to a pint and a coffee whilst sitting outside one of the cafes on the square and paid 18 euros for the privilege! The national monument in Dam Square is also a key meeting point for guided tours. Check out the free walks
Probably the heaviest trafficked area and very touristy. Overpriced food and drinks you can eat and drink much cheaper off of side streets. Best bargain is the local grocery store Albert Hein located directly behind the square.
Too crowded to be enjoyable. The New Church, adjacent to the royal palace (that is pictured), has been converted to a museum and hosts some excellent exhibitions. There is also a very nice sidewalk cafe that operates out the New Church that is bit off to the side of the crowds. De Bijenkorf, the Netherlands premier department store faces on Dam Square. Once the new "Rokin" subway stop is open, the crowds may be be able to spread out a bit.
Very crowded square. Be very careful of bike riders, cars, and trains. They seem to have priority over pedestrians. Saw someone hit by a bicyle rider and fell on the pavement. Take umbrella as weather changes several times during the day.
Visit The Nine Streets 'De Negen Straatjes' for unique boutiques with the odd Abercrombie shop. I love the shoes here, try United Nude-pop up shops scattered around right now. I love De Bijenkorf (The Beehive), the department store by Dam Square for its one step ahead, soon to come homewares trends.
The city really speaks to you! Look at the buildings leaning sideways on each other, the trains running through the city, Dam square... history is staring at your face everywhere you turn.
If you take a detour from the main shopping strip leading to Dam Square, there are a number of smaller shops for the more particular shopper. My favourite was what looked like a small musical instrument shop, but turned out to be huge. There was also a retro computer game shop that was a little expensive but had an amazing array of consoles and games.
Stay off the beaten track and away from places like Dam Square and the Red Light District. There are plenty of small cafes and restaurants close to the canals. Look for where the local people go to eat and take recommendations from your hotel. Always worth checking out the restaurants in the Internet before you go and always try to book
Find Warmoestraat, near 22 (Hotel Old Quarter) and walk straight on towards Baba Coffeeshop, walk straight past and you get the Dam square. It's beautiful!
Red light district, shopping district near Dam square, Dam square its self, the Royal Palace, and of course the coffee shops!
“The hotel is very centrally located in Dam Square. The room is a decent size and has a fresh and modern feel. The room was spacious and the bathroom appeared to have been recently renovated. It has Aircon (key for us when the temperatures were in the 30s C/90s F). They also take pets for a €20 fee, and our dog seemed perfectly happy.”
“Beds were comfy, location great, no air conditioning in rooms so stuffy in July. Recommendation for Indonesian food very poor and no knowledge of free walking tours, which met right on Dam Square outside of the hotel. However, the staff was very personable.”
“I like the quite area of this hotel and the tram station which is not far from the hotel. I would recommend this choice to any one who want quite and reasonable price comparing with the high near by the dam square. it's only 20 min. to reach the center. worth it!”
“The best of this hotel is its location around the corner of Dam square. Considering the size of properties in Amsterdam, my room was pretty enough and it was clean. The breakfast was normal.”
“Very friendly staff and small but very clean rooms. The location is really great, and not far from the Jordaan neighborhood which is fantastic. Dam Square is a 5 minute walk, the Anne Frank House about 15 minutes. There are coffee shops and bakeries all around the hotel as well. About a ten minute walk to the central train station. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.”
