HOTEL 83, Amsterdam

The hotel sits directly in the Red Light District, placing you steps from the area's bars, restaurants, and shops. Dam Square and the shopping streets are a short walk away. The tram stop at Dam Square (5 minutes) connects to Amsterdam Central Station and the rest of the city, while Metro Nieuwmarkt is a 3-minute walk. Many dining options are within 0.5 km, including Ivy & Bros, Bird Thais, and Downtown Diner. The location is ideal for exploring central Amsterdam on foot, though the area is lively at night.

Rooms are simply furnished with a wardrobe, parquet floors, and heating. All rooms include air conditioning (remote available at reception), a flat-screen TV, and free Wi-Fi. Most rooms have a private bathroom with shower; 4 rooms share a bathroom located in the hallway (can be locked from inside). Twin and double configurations are available, with some rooms offering a minibar, tea/coffee maker, or seating area. Noise levels vary: rooms facing the street can be lively, while those overlooking the inner courtyard are quieter. The steep stairs and lack of a lift mean ground-floor rooms are easier to access. Room cleaning is daily, and fresh towels are available on demand. Some rooms have limited storage and no hairdryer.

A continental European breakfast is offered each morning for €7.50 per person, consisting of bread, pastries, coffee, and juice. Breakfast is served in a shared area and is not included in the room price. The hotel has a bar where you can order wine and champagne (additional charge) and a coffee house on site for hot drinks and light refreshments. For lunch and dinner, numerous international restaurants are within a 3-minute walk, including Thai, diner-style, Italian, and bakery options. The lively area also has many cafes and bars for evening drinks.
