Landmarkt
339 SchellingwouderdijkBuurten
The former large NDSM Shipyard in Amsterdam has been transformed into a Post-Industrial Artistic area. Still rough edged, there are now some ten trendy restaurants and even a few good hotels, such as the budget Botel, the comfortable Hilton DoubleTree NDSM, and the outrageous crane hotel Faralda. The area can easily be reached by free ferry marked NDSM from Amsterdam Central Station.

Getting to Amsterdam by public transport

Vervoersmogelijkheden
Getting to Amsterdam by car
Parking in the city is really expensive (up to 7,50 euros per hour) so it is recommended to drive to the P&R Noord at Nieuwe Leeuwarderweg 25. You can park there for 1 euro per day. Take the metro from there! A great alternative is to drive to Mobihub Amsterdam Toren where you can park your car for free if you rent bikes.
