Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Linden, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the higher floors (5th floor or above) for a quieter stay. The hotel's location on Lindengracht, a canal-side street, means you can expect some street noise, but higher floors tend to be less affected.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1st-3rd) as they may be noisier due to the proximity to the street and the hotel's service entrance, which can generate some noise.

🪟

Best views

Rooms on the canal-side (north-side) of the hotel will offer views of the Prinsengracht or other nearby canals, while rooms on the city-side (south-side) will face the city streets.

😴

Quietest floors

4th floor and above

🔊 Noise notes

Be prepared for some street noise from the canal-side location, especially on weekends or during festivals.

Insider tips

Take advantage of the hotel's proximity to the Lindengracht canal and take a short walk to the nearby Noorderkerk (Northern Church) for a peaceful stroll along the canal. If you're driving, consider using the nearby parking garage at the nearby NDSM wharf, which offers a more affordable option compared to the hotel's own parking rates.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
