Accommodation in D - Oud-West



The so called Oud-West area is enclosed between de Clercqstraat on the north, Nassaukade, along the Singelgracht on the east, the Kostverlorenvaart on the west and the Overtoom on the south. This is a very quiet neighbourhood and yet just a few minutes walk from the liveliest and interesting, albeit noisy, monuments and sites of this marvellous canal laced city...

Accommodation in Amsterdam

In fact the lively Leidseplein with its pleasant restaurants and cafes , the Museumplein - home to the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum and the Concertgebouw, Vondelpark - one of the best places to relax and the earthy Jordaan are walking distance from Oud-West. The residential neighbourhood of Oud-West was built in the late nineteenth century when the city was expanded from the Singelgracht as a result of the rising population during the second industrial revolution.

 

This residential area is efficiently connected by trams with the historical centre, the Dam Square and the Central Station. The architecture of the buildings here at Oud-West is well-preserved with high ceilings and brick walls and with classical details. You will find many restaurants, cafés, shops and bike rentals in this popular and lively area. One of the branches of the Amsterdam Public Library, the Kinkerbuurt, is located right in the centre of this district.

 

The Oud-West can be your starting point to visit the city - you can use the most popular mode of transportation - bikes! You'll find agencies for renting them everywhere and you can follow one of the several canals and explore and enjoy Amsterdam at your own pace. This typical residential area is the perfect place to lodge where you can experience the day to day lives of Amsterdam's inhabitants and at the same time stay just few steps from the action and tourist attractions downtown.
