The neighborhood
Canal Ring & Centrum
The three great canals and the old center at their core – home to five of the six hotels. The Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht were dug in the 17th century around the Singel and have been a World Heritage site since 2010. At the core stand Dam Square and the Royal Palace, with the Flower Market on the Singel; the Nine Streets and the Jordaan lie to the west, Rembrandtplein and the Amstel to the south-east.
- The Herengracht and the canal ring, at the door.
- Rembrandtplein, the Amstel and the Flower Market, a few minutes' walk.
- Museumplein and the Rijksmuseum, a short walk south across the Singelgracht.
