Hotel Details

Location

Located in Amsterdam Noord, the apartment is 1 km from the free ferry to Central Station and 23 km from Schiphol Airport.
The apartment sits in the modern Noord district, a quieter, less tourist-packed area with a safe, clean environment and creative, industrial surroundings. The free 24-hour ferry from NDSM wharf (a 10-15 minute walk or short bus ride) reaches Amsterdam Central Station in a few minutes. The bus stop is just a 3-minute walk away, connecting directly to the ferry and metro. The area is rich in local character with the Street Art Museum, NDSM wharf, and A'DAM Lookout (2 km away) within easy reach. Nearby restaurants, cafes, and bars are within a 5-minute walk. Late at night, taxi or ride-share from the centre is recommended as public transport and dining options thin out.

Leisure

The building features a communal terrace on the ground floor.
The communal terrace on the ground floor offers outdoor seating. An ice-skating rink is available in the surroundings. The broader Noord district provides free access to the 24-hour NDSM ferry, the A'DAM Lookout observation deck, and the Street Art Museum. Bicycle parking is available on site, and bike rental can be found near the ferry terminal.

Amenities

Free Wi-Fi, secure paid parking (reservation needed), paid airport shuttle, elevator, and luggage storage at the ground-floor café.
Wi-Fi is free and available in the apartment. Private indoor parking is offered for a small daily fee, but must be reserved in advance; a remote control is required for entry, and a 50 EUR separate deposit is needed for that remote. The building is accessible by elevator. No reception desk is staffed on site-check-in uses a key code system, and all communication is via email or phone. A paid airport shuttle can be arranged via taxi or ride-share (approximately 28 minutes from Schiphol). The café downstairs (Brunchdale) often stores luggage for guests arriving early or leaving late. A 250 EUR damage deposit (refundable) is charged separately from the booking. Payment is accepted by all major credit cards. The property is non-smoking and does not accept pets. No daily room cleaning is provided.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Arrange a taxi or ride-share from Schiphol Airport for a 28-minute ride, as no direct airport shuttle is provided.

  • 02

    Use the free ferry from NDSM (1 km walk) or the bus from the nearby stop for efficient access to Amsterdam Central Station.

  • 03

    Request a private parking space in the secured garage in advance, as on-site parking requires a reservation.

  • 04

    Bring your own cooking basics and utensils, as the kitchen may lack sufficient pans, cutlery, and glassware for full meal preparation.
