What are the must-do activities in Amsterdam? 

A sunset over Amsterdam's canals

The magic happens when the sun goes down over the Dutch capital. Golden rays reflect off the peaceful waters of Amsterdam's canals, a UNESCO World Heritage site, creating an enchanting spectacle unique in the world.

The majestic gabled houses take on warm hues while the historic bridges cast long shadows on the water. A boat trip at dusk lets you admire these must-see sights from their best angle, as the first lights of the nightlife come on along the banks.

Café terraces gently come to life as the sun sets, offering breathtaking views of this living painting. A moment suspended between day and night, when Amsterdam's beauty is revealed in all its splendour.

The Van Gogh Museum and the Anne Frank House for a cultural getaway

The Van Gogh Museum houses the world's largest collection of the Dutch painter's unique works of art. Visitors discover iconic masterpieces such as Sunflowers and The Potato Eaters in a modern setting with modern facilities.

Just a few steps away in the city centre, the Anne Frank House offers a moving testimony of the Second World War.

These two major sites, accessible by public transport from our Best Western rooms, turn your stay in Amsterdam into a true cultural immersion. Booking in advance is recommended to make the most of these very popular museums in the Netherlands.

Discovering Amsterdam's historic districts

The Jordaan, a former working-class district that has become one of Amsterdam's most sought-after, charms with its picturesque lanes and secret courtyards. Lovers of authenticity will appreciate its antique shops and art galleries nestled in traditional 17th-century houses.

Not far from Dam Square, the De Pijp district reveals another side of the city with its famous Albert Cuyp market. This lively street offers a unique immersion in Amsterdam's multicultural atmosphere, between colourful stalls and typical cafés.

 This elegant district is home to the Museumplein, a true cultural hub where music lovers gather for open-air concerts in front of the prestigious Concertgebouw.
