Very close to the lovely Vondelpark and an easy walk to Rijksmuseum & Van Gough Museum. Quirky decor - each room devoted to a different philosopher and there are lots of books (many in English) to read!

Going yearly to the hotel for now 5 years, I really appreciate warm welcome, cosy rooms and ideal location. Situated on the border of the vondelpark, near leidseplein & museumplein in the friendly Overtom neighborhood, the hotel is regularly refreshed :) and rooms are nicely decorated.
