This place is so, so beautiful. The location is in the beautiful ‘Plantaje’ district otherwise known as the Green Place. Lots of trees and greenery along the canals. The neighborhood is just delightful.
My studio apt. was artfully decorated, meticulously clean, and had everything I could possible need for cooking meals and making tea.
There’s a lovely bathtub as well that was very cozy and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud.
The service is OUTSTANDING. I wouldn’t only stay here again, but rent an apt. for a short-term stay in the future.
For local coffee, I loved Borrl Kitchen less than 5 min away, they even have a yummy vegan sausage roll that I had most mornings with a lovely oat latte and they are right across the street from the Artis Zoo (I don’t normally like zoos, but this one is very open and the animals seem so happy, especially the two wolves, I bought a membership and visited 4 times during my stay, it was so charming)
Also, the Resistance Museum is down the block from the Borrl and Oosterpark is a short walk or bike ride away. I also highly recommend Bataat located about 15 min walking distance for delicious homemade vegan food.
The hotel, the staff, the neighborhood— all of it together made for a wonderful, wonderful experience and I could not recommend the Wittenberg more. Go and see for yourself!!!!
