Ozo Hotel Arena Amsterdam

This ultra-modern, glass-fronted hotel is in the Zuidoost neighbourhood of Amsterdam. It’s got peaceful surroundings but it’s in a really convenient spot – Bullewijk station is a five-minute walk. From there, hop on a metro and you’ll be at Amsterdam Central in 20 minutes. Rather take the scenic route? Rent a bike directly from the hotel.

Back at base, you’ll find a fitness centre and a relaxing garden. As for dining, the stylish restaurant serves a continental breakfast buffet to set you up for the day, and an indulgent afternoon tea. Come evening, you can tuck into light bites in the lounge bar – alongside the house special OZO cocktail – or a full dinner menu at the hotel restaurant.

The smart, contemporary rooms include tea and coffee-making facilities, a safe, iron and work desk.
