Across the water from Central Station, Amsterdam Noord has turned from an industrial harbour into one of the city’s most exciting districts. The free ferries take just a few minutes to cross the IJ to Overhoeks, with the A’DAM Tower and the EYE film museum, or to the NDSM wharf, where old shipyards have become studios, restaurants and design hotels.
Hotels with a view
Many of Noord’s hotels look out over the IJ and the skyline of the centre. It’s a quieter, more private setting than the busy canal ring, and ideal for an unhurried evening. Your companion comes to you by taxi or ferry and arrives discreetly.
Ideas for your booking
Watch the sunset from the top of the A’DAM Tower, have dinner by the water at the NDSM wharf, then head back to your room. The girlfriend experience turns that into a full day together; an intimate date keeps it simple.
Getting to you
Most bookings in Noord start within 30 to 60 minutes of confirmation, depending on the time of day and your exact address.
