If you're craving some country, farmside air head to Over-Amstel. Yes, it may only be a short cycle from the centre but we assure you the mooing cattle, free-range chickens, and frequent bump-ins with the sheep will whisk you away from city life. If animals aren't your thing, the cheese tastings at the farm-to-fork restaurant should be. 

This urban hotel and two-Michelin starred restaurant finds the union between celebrated international cuisine and beloved Dutch delicacies. And even better than the food? Their gorgeous view of the water. Be sure to ask for a table by the window!

This stunning, serene space is like nowhere else we know in Amsterdam. Dedicated to true wellness, Renessence takes a holistic approach to health. Ice baths, floating, infrared sauna and cryotherapy are all on the menu for the bold. Want something a bit more relaxed? They also do fantastic massages and have a nice yoga programme.

Ever wanted to feel like a local perched in a beautiful home with views of the Amstel? At tHUIS aan de AMSTEL, you can enjoy a great glass of wine in a stunning Dutch home.
