Home description
Beautifully renovated and totally restyled apartment in hystorical building. Located at the city harbour (The IJ), and build on a corner, this apartment is very light, provides a fantastic panorama on a canal and the harbour with its ships, houseboats, and modern architecture of the buildings on the other side. It is like looking at a constantly changing painting, as there is alway movement on and around the water.
This beautiful DESIGN apartment is part of the so called 'Admiral Michiel De Ruyter House' in the heart of Amsterdam.
The apartment is very tastefully decorated and designed by a famous Dutch interior architect Edward van Vliet who has designed several design hotels in and outside Holland.
We called it 'Delfts Blue' as it has the typical Blue of the city of Delft as it's main colour and, you will find all you need to have a comfortable and pleasant stay in this apartment.
All the important museums are nearby and can be reached by foot, bike, tram or boat. Also the Anne Frank House is nearby, as well as the great shopping streets like the P.C. Hooftstraat. and "the so called 9 streets shoppingarea".
The central station is just a ten minutes walk which makes Schiphol Airport reachable within 20 to 30 minutes.
There is a great variety of restaurants and pubs in the area. So called 'bruine cafés' - typical Dutch pubs - are in great numbers available.
In summer 2008 we will have air conditioning everywhere in the building. Until then there will be no need for that.
Come and enjoy this wonderful apartment or book the other almost identical design apartment in the ADMIRAL MICHIEL DE RUYTER HOUSE.

The Northern Holland / North Holland region
The region is very easy to reach by bike, or car. The land is, as you might know, very flat and there are lakes, canals, etcetera. The summers can be hot but some rainy day s can be expected. In the region, as in the rest of The Netherlands, there are many places of interest. As the country is not so big, and many ways of transportation are easy to use, it is recommendable to also make trips outside Amsterdam if you have the time. No need for a car, the train and bus network is vast. The nearest beaches are Bloemendaal and Zandvoort. Oly appr. 20 km. The train to Zandvoort brings you close to the beach.
Amsterdam area
Almost everything is close: all important museums, restaurants, pubs, The Anne Frank House, Central Station, bike rentals, boat rentals and tours, parks, cinema's, the zoo, a science museum for kids is just across the harbour, theatres, cinemas, coffeeshops, the Red Light District, bus and tram stops, great Shopping areas, the Jordaan, the Dam, the Nieuwmarkt, the Flowermarket, parks, etcetera.
How to get there
From Schiphol Int. Airport by train. This takes more or less 20 minutes. The Central Station is just a 10 minutes walk to the apartments. From Schiphol by taxi it takes approximately 20 minutes. Do not pay more than € 54,00. Amsterdam is very easy to reach from almost all major cities in the world. It is possible to rent a car at the airport. However, in Amsterdam and Holland the public transportation is well organised.
