Dam Hotel Amsterdam is on Damrak, the avenue that links Amsterdam Centraal station with Dam Square. It is a functional hotel with a private bathroom in the rooms and no breakfast of its own. It is a good fit if what matters most in your choice is being between the station and the square.
Location and getting around
Dam Square and Amsterdam Centraal station are each about 5 minutes away on foot, in opposite directions. The Anne Frank House is about 15 minutes’ walk, and Rembrandtplein and the Flower Market about 20. According to the hotel, Kalverstraat is less than 10 minutes away.
Leidseplein is about 25 minutes on foot and the Rijksmuseum about half an hour. To get to Museumplein or the Vondelpark, the tram runs along the same avenue, so you do not need to look for a stop far from the hotel.
