Old Harbour A Apartment

The one bedroom Old Harbour A Apartment is a charming residence perfect for a family or group of friends, wonderfully situated overlooking the historic Oosterdok, in the centre of Amsterdam.

This modern and immaculately presented lodging has the capacity to sleep up to four guests, with the corner sofa effortlessly converting into a snug sleeping spot for two persons. The living room is bright and amiable, and affords scenic views over the calm waters of the harbour. A wide, flat screen TV plus a DVD player is available should you wish to unwind with a relaxing evening of entertainment in this homely and hospitable environment.

The sleek and stylish kitchen comes fully equipped to enable home cooking, one of the many advantages of renting holiday apartments. A range of dishes from traditional Dutch pancakes to elaborate evening feasts can be enjoyed with your fellow guests at the sophisticated dining table. The simple yet soothing bedroom is located in the back of the lodging for added tranquillity, and includes a comfortable double bed. The fresh and clean bathroom includes a bathtub and shower, with the toilet positioned separately for more convenience.

This Amsterdam accommodation boasts an enviable location in the heart of the capital, overlooking the recently redeveloped Oosterdok port and neighbouring a wealth of interesting attractions. Central Station is less than a ten minute walk away, allowing simple and direct access to and from the airport, and the city’s central point of Dam Square is reachable in fifteen minutes by foot. This holiday apartment is also conveniently close to the hustle and bustle of Chinatown and the Red Light District, offering endless choices for dining or evening entertainment, and the peaceful Plantage quarter, which is home to a rich history and Amsterdam’s ancient Artis Zoo.

Visitors travelling with children will be delighted to know that the Oosterdok itself presents a fantastic selection of activities for keeping the kids entertained. For example, the beloved Nemo Science Centre provides hours of interactive fun for all the family, whilst the adjacent National Maritime Museum houses a colourful exhibition of nautical artefacts, including the impressive life size replica of “The Amsterdam.” Equally entertaining and adored by younger members of the family is the city’s Openbare Bibliotheek, which is actually the largest library in Europe. One of the upper levels of this mammoth construct contains a self service restaurant, with an outdoor patio that affords spectacular views across Holland’s treasured capital.
