| | Holiday Apartment for Rent in Amsterdam, x Ref:67 View Map of Netherlands,Amsterdam,Amsterdam Town 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, Sleeps 4 to 6 from $675, €550, £449, CAN$837 per week The Hortusbrug condominiums are situated in a modernist building facing one of the old canals, the Nieuwe Herengracht. The condo is a former artists’ studio (in Dutch “atelierwoning”) on the top level (fourth floor) of the complex. This entire floor consists of these artists’ studios which were built to accommodate the ever artist population of Amsterdam. The studios were designed to maximise light and built with very high ceilings and giant windows, one facing the front and one facing the back of the complex. Facing south, the window to the front captures the sun all day (don’t worry, the terrace has a sun screen which you can lower) as well as the beautiful and classic view of Amsterdam: the Herengracht canal, traditional Amsterdam houses from the 16-17th century, the Potugese synagogue, the modern hothouse of the historic botanical garden. In the distance you will be able to see the towers of the Rijksmuseum as well as some more modern examples of the Dutch architecture. Facing north, the window opens up to tall trees and the central courtyard of the entire block. The gardens in the central courtyard are the joint property of all the residents. It can be accessed by a staircase at the end of the first floor gallery. You will, however, not find much sunlight there, so don’t expect to get a tan there. We prefer our terrace - remember all that sunlight from the south. The residents of the complex are of all ages, colours – and, for the gay traveller, also mixed gay-straight. There is a strong sense of community in the building, so expect greetings from interested fellow residents in the hallway and elevator. Our condo is a completely modernized apaertment, designed by Amsterdam architect Peter Giljam with all the woodwork being handcrafted by cabinetmaker Jasper Spiering in 2000-2001. It features all modern amenities, such as dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, multifunctional electric oven including fan and grill functions, iron and ironing board, vacuum cleaner, Our city, Amsterdam, has many treasures to discover, caterring to almost all tastes and all to be found in the guide books we have in the condo, ranging from The Michelin Red Guide across Blue Guide to Amsterdam to the Rough Guide, not to mention all.
