Amsterdam Hostel Annemarie is a hostel on Jan Willem Brouwersstraat, in the south of the city, a few minutes from the Van Gogh Museum. It has bunk beds and single beds, and some rooms have a private bathroom. It is a good fit if you travel light, are interested in the museums and do not mind sharing a room.
Location and getting around
The Van Gogh Museum is about a 5-minute walk away. The Rijksmuseum and the main entrance to Vondelpark are about 10 minutes, and Leidseplein about 15. Dam Square is about 35 minutes on foot and Amsterdam Centraal station is 2.9 km away in a straight line: to get there from the train or to reach the historic centre, public transport or a bike makes sense, and the hostel hires out bikes.
Rooms and facilities
The rooms are painted in bright colours. You can choose between bunk beds and single beds, and some rooms have a private bathroom with a shower and a balcony. In the rest, the bathroom is shared.
- Free Wi-Fi throughout the building.

Who it suits

- Handy if your priority is the museums in the south.
Good to know
Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is until 10:00, which is a little early if you like to sleep in. As there is no breakfast, it is worth finding somewhere nearby on your first night. You will find more hostels in the guide if you want to compare areas.
