The Hotel Quentin Canal House Amsterdam occupies a 17th-century canal house on Leidsekade, about a 5-minute walk from Leidseplein. It has rooms with a private bathroom and a continental breakfast. It is a good fit if you want the museums and the nightlife of Leidseplein on foot.
Location and getting around
Leidsekade 89 faces the water of the Singelgracht. Leidseplein and the main entrance to the Vondelpark are about 5 minutes away on foot. The Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum are about 10 minutes’ walk, and the Bloemenmarkt flower market about 15. Allow around 20 minutes’ walk to the Anne Frank House or Dam Square; Amsterdam Centraal is about 35 minutes away, so from there the tram is better.
