EuroCheapo review print this page

To feel like a real burgher, park your bags for a few nights at Hotel Washington. This charming two-star is housed in a 19th-century townhouse between the Museumplein and its trendy neighbor De Pijp and offers rooms that accommodate a range of budgets.

The building's quirks give rooms and common areas a distinct personality. Busy floral-pattern wallpaper in the halls leads to twenty-two rooms adorned by paintings of quaint country scenes, original stained-glass window work, and sturdy, long work desks. Both the private and shared bathrooms are ample and clean. Some sport cool, red tile that must have landed in the rooms sometime in the 70's.

We think the owners could serve themselves well by changing out the green carpets in some of the rooms, but the beds are comfortable, and the views over the garden are priceless. Additionally, you can rent apartments with access to the garden and a refrigerator.

About the Washington neighborhood

The most popular area of town outside the city center, the Museumplein is a pleasing, 19th-century residential area crowded with museums and parks. Museums here include the Rijksmuseum, which possesses an impressive collection of Dutch paintings from the 15th through the 17th centuries (including an enormous Rembrandt collection), the Van Gogh Museum, and the Stedelijk Museum, which features modern and contemporary works. The other big attraction of the area of the Vondelpark, which was celebrated in the 1970s as a sex, drugs, and rocknroll playground. Today the commercial district of Museumplein is upscale, full of pricey little boutiques and shops.
