Hotel van Onna
The Hotel van Onna is a cozy one star hotel in the heart of the Jordaan, not far from the Royal Palace and the Dam. All worth seeing tourist attractions are easily reach by foot.
The hotel is located in a very beautiful canal house on the peaceful Bloemgracht (Flower-canal). this building is a monumental canal house from the year 1644,.
The founder “Loek van Onna” was born in this very room and decided to start with the Hotel more than 40 years ago.
The Jordaan
This colourful, most sung about neighbourhood is famous for its cafés, restaurants, unusual shops, but especially for its atmosphere.
With its labyrinth of narrow streets and canals, is one of the most characteristic districts of Amsterdam.
This area was founded in the 17th century when the unprecendented economic flourishing of the city created a huge influx of immigrants from all over Europe.
The Jordaan emerged on the western side of the Prinsengracht, a densely-built district with small homes for artisans and artists.
Walking through the narrows streets it seem that you are far away from the busy shoppings areas. But these quiet streets have a lot of small shops, restaurants, bars and galleries.
