Our Where to stay in Amsterdam, Ouid Zuid area information guide should help you find which area best suits you for your stay in Amsterdam.
This is the cultural quarter, and holds some of the city’s biggest & finest attractions, including the Van Gogh museums, Rijksmuseum and Vondel Park. The museums are clustered around Museumplein, a large rectangle of open land in the middle of the city. To the south-western end of this are some of Amsterdam’s swankiest shops on the Pieter Cornelisz (shortened to PC) Hooftstraat.
At the top of the landscaped and ever-popular Vondel Park you come up to the city’s biggest casino and Leidseplein, a buzzing touristic square full of bars and cafes which is a convenient spot for a drink prior to a gig at Paradiso or Melkweg.
