A bit of Indonesia in Amsterdam.

The Java island in Amsterdam is a spot with a special history. From here the vessels toward Indonesia took off. In the nineties of last century the island in the “Ij” went through a redevelopment. Today it’s a trendy spot to live, with nice architectural buildings. It’s worth a stroll if you have done all the highlights of the city and are looking for something new. Just when you cross the bridge towards the island you see hotel Jakarta. A new hotel with a nice and big tropical garden in the lobby. The hotel masters the art of sustainable hotel business. You’ll see in every detail that they care of their guests and the planet. Wood, plants, recyclable goods, drinking bottles on the room,… and extremely helpful and friendly staff. Oh yes, when you book you get the assistance from a chatbot. I tried it, and it works very good. But at the reception you see real friendly people. It’s a 20 minute walk from central station. Take the slow living way and walk alongside the living boats, and you pass the impressive building of booking.com as well. Take a look and read about the history of the Java island. Oh yes: they have a bakery. On the first floor. Worth visiting. A hotel with a bakery…👍.
