Ibis Styles Amsterdam Amstel

Set just off the Amstel on the edge of De Pijp, ibis Styles puts one of Amsterdam's liveliest neighbourhoods on your doorstep. The surrounding streets are packed with cafés, bars and restaurants, and the Albert Cuyp Market, the city's best-known street market, is a ten-minute walk away. The Stadhouderskade tram stop is nearby, and Weesperplein metro station offers quick links across the city.

Set in a traditional Amsterdam townhouse, the hotel is small and personal, with bright, modern interiors. The focus is simple: comfortable rooms, friendly service and a good location.

Rooms are simply furnished and come as singles, doubles, twins and family rooms. Some are compact, but all are comfortable and practical for a city break.

A buffet breakfast is served every morning. There is no restaurant or bar, but De Pijp's cafés and restaurants are a short walk away.
