St. Christopher's at The Winston (Hostel) -
Warmoesstraat 129 1012 JA Amsterdam Netherlands
St. Christopher's @ The Winston is on Warmoesstraat 129, between the Dam square, the Red Light District and the central train station (can you beat that???)
From Dam Square
Warmoesstraat starts on the north-east corner of the square. We are at number 129.
From the central train station
From the big square outside the station, head towards the Victoria Hotel and follow the Damrak avenue, for about 200 meters. Turn left into Oudebrugsteeg (at the end of the cruise boats harbour). The second street, at the Chikita shop, is Warmoesstraat. Turn right into Warmoesstraat, and we are about 150 meters away, at number 129.
This is a 5 to 10 minutes walk, depending on the weight of your backpack, but without any coffee shop or bar pitstops!
From Schipol Airport
Take a train shuttle to Amsterdam central station ('Centraal Station'). Trains leave every 10 minutes between 6am and 1am, and cost less than 4 euros one-way. The journey takes approximately 20 minutes. Follow then the above instructions from the station.
Parking Facilities
There is a Public Parking on Damrak, 50 metres from the Winston. Cost is around 4 per hour. Much cheaper is to leave your car outside the city centre. Check with the reception for how to drive there.
