I HOTEL, Amsterdam

The hotel is located in the quieter, residential Amsterdam Noord district. Noorderpark metro station (M52) is 5-7 minutes on foot, connecting to Central Station in under 5 minutes. The free ferry across the IJ provides a scenic 24-hour alternative route to the city center. Key attractions: Dam Square (3 km), Royal Palace (3 km), Rembrandtplein (3 km). Schiphol Airport is 14 km away. Several restaurants, coffee shops, and a supermarket are within 0.5 km. Driving is possible but parking is paid; on-street spaces cost €1.40/hour, and hotel private parking is €10/day. Note that the metro stops around 12:30 am, so late-night returns may require the ferry or a taxi.

The property offers a range of room types: standard double rooms (with or without a window - windowless rooms are quieter but lack natural light), twin/double rooms (some Deluxe versions include a bathtub), triple rooms (three separate beds, regular window), quadruple rooms (four separate beds), and loft-style rooms (steep stairs, fixed skylight that does not open). All rooms have air conditioning, heating, free Wi-Fi, a desk, and satellite TV. Bathrooms have showers (some with a bathtub) and daily towel changes. Standard double rooms are compact, suitable for travellers who plan to be out most of the day. The building has no lift, and stairs can be narrow and steep. Noise from corridors and adjacent rooms is common due to thin walls. Daily housekeeping is provided.

Breakfast is served as a continental buffet including pastries, bread, cereal, eggs, and hot drinks. Halal options and breakfast-to-go are available. The cost is €15 per person. The on-site coffee house and snack bar provide light refreshments throughout the day. The shared lounge and terrace offer spaces for eating takeaway food. Several cafes and eateries are within a short walk, including Little Saigon, Coffee Trails, and Taqueria Coba (0.5 km).

Leisure facilities are minimal. The outdoor terrace with furniture is available for relaxation. Bicycle rental is offered at an additional charge, a practical way to explore the Amsterdam Noord area and the city. There is no swimming pool, spa, or fitness centre.

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel. The 24-hour front desk offers complimentary luggage storage, express check-in/check-out, and daily housekeeping.
