The Stayokay Vondelpark hostel is situated near the Vondelpark at crawling distance from the Leidseplein in the very centre of the city. It is partly located in a monumental chalet building from which you have a view over the park. Facilities include 536 beds divided over 2, 4, 6 bedded rooms and some large dormitories. All rooms have shower, toilet and washbasin. Electronic door locks, lockers and safes, no curfew. Sheets and blankets are provided by the hostel.

The hostel can be reached from Central Station by taking tram number 1, 2 or 5. You get off at Leidseplein. From Leidseplein you walk towards the Marriott Hotel. In front of the Marriott Hotel you turn left. Zandpad is the 2nd street to the right (small street just before the park entrance).

There are no (affordable) parking places in the surroundings. Look at www.naaramsterdam.nl for parking garages.

Some people will be sleeping on the boat Vertrouwen (ÎTrustâ) at the Javakade. Please take your own sleeping bag if you sleep on the boat.

We do not have the hostel exclusively for our own use. Meetings are in the just renovated Îbroedplaatsâ at Plantage Doklaan, some 20 minutes on foot to the east.

The Stayokay Egmond hostel is situated some 40 km northwest of Amsterdam in the middle of the bulb fields, close to the beautiful North Holland Dune Reserve and the sea. The building is modern and offers a view of the dunes. The hostel cares about the environment, using systems that save water and conserve energy when heating.

By public transport:

from Alkmaar station take bus 165 in the direction of Egmond. Get off at the ÎTexacoâ stop. Or, from Heiloo station you can take a special Îtrain taxiâ at a fixed price (with three or more passengers this is cheaper than a regular taxi).

By car: from the ring road of Alkmaar take the exit direction Egmond. Follow directions for Egmond-Binnen. The hostel is on your left before entering the village of Egmond-Binnen, just after the riding-school.

We donât have the whole hostel at our disposal, bit it is a relatively quiet place and we have a meeting room at our disposal.
