Anne Frank House is less than 15 minutes' walk away through the canals, while Body Worlds and Beurs van Berlage are approximately 0.5 km away. The Red Light District is 1 km away. The hotel is a few minutes' walk from Amsterdam Central Station, offering transportation by train, underground, tram, and bus.

Hotel Services

Multatuli Hotel offers a 24/7 reception and roundtrip airport shuttle. Staff are available at any time. Guests can check in from 13:00 hrs and are requested to clear their room before 11:00 hrs on the day of departure. The hotel derives its name and logo from Multatuli, author of 'Max Havelaar'.

“This historic building, a national monument dating back to 1744, offers a central Amsterdam experience with a modern touch; I found the complimentary breakfast, including a wide selection, to be a real highlight. While rooms may be compact and storage limited, the location opposite Central Station and the overall cleanliness make it a practical base for exploring the city's cultural landmarks. It's a solid choice for travellers prioritizing location and value.”
