Where to Stay in Oud-West

Oud-West is a lived-in neighborhood just west of the canals, with the De Hallen food hall, the Ten Katestraat market and the north edge of Vondelpark. You trade canal views for local life and a little more space.

The Short Answer

Stay near De Hallen and the Kinkerstraat for food and local life, or near the Vondelstraat for the park. Our pick is Hotel De Hallen, inside the De Hallen complex on Bellamyplein, about 2 km from Dam Square.

The Catalonia Vondel is the best choice for families, 300 meters from Vondelpark with a two-bedroom apartment. On a budget, the Conscious Hotel Vondelpark has an organic breakfast and trams nearby, and CityHub rents private cabins with shared bathrooms. Oud-West has few hotels, so this guide also includes good options just over its borders in the Jordaan and the Museum Quarter.
