The Area And Getting There

The hostel sits at Vossiusstraat 46 in Zuid, in the south of the city. Amsterdam Centraal lies 2.55 km away in a straight line, so expect a real journey by tram, bike or on foot rather than a short stroll. One listing, meanwhile, puts the property 1.7km from the city centre, measured differently. Either way, this is not a stay in the thick of the old centre, and transport planning matters. The booking page shows the exact position on a map if you want to judge the distance yourself.
