Clean, air-conditioned hotel with a very good continental breakfast. Located very close to the Dam Square area, which is incredibly crowded at almost all times. Within a short walk of Amsterdam Central Station and tram and metro stops.

It was difficult to find with Google maps. So heads up, it’s right behind the old church, off Dam Square, on a charming little street, full of restaurants and a Chinese massage a few doors down to help your traveling feet recover.
