Arrival & Departure

  • Do you provide parking for guests?

    No. Our guest-house is located in the canals of old Amsterdam. Almost none of the buildings nearby have a garage, nor are there areas of undeveloped land for parking. Some P & R are parking lots are situated around the city. Cars can be parked at these facilities for 1 Euro per day. Read more here.

  • What is the best way to get to the main train station?

    Line 4 of the tram-stop Keizersgracht (about 70 meters from our guest-house). The tram trip takes some 7-8 minutes, and runs at 10-minute intervals during the day. Please read the schedule, which is displayed at the stop.

  • From what time is my room available?

    Your room is available from 13:00. Should you check in earlier, you are welcome to store your luggage on our premises.

  • Can I leave my luggage with you on the day of departure?

    Yes! You may! You give us your room key, and in return, you get a front door key to pick up your luggage later, even if none of the guest-house staff is there.
