Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre
Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre sits in a row of slim 17th-century merchant houses on Nieuwendijk, one of the oldest streets in the city and now a pedestrianised shopping artery that runs from Centraal Station toward Dam Square. The three-star property attracts budget-conscious leisure travellers who want to be inside the canal ring rather than out near the RAI or Sloterdijk, and who plan to do most of their sightseeing on foot. Rooms are compact and styled with a clean, contemporary aesthetic layered over the building's original beams and stepped gables, which is fairly typical for design-oriented properties in this stretch of Centrum. Most guests are here for a long weekend of museums, canal walks and dinners in the Negen Straatjes, or a short city break tacked onto a European itinerary. Couples on a first Amsterdam trip and small groups of friends are the dominant profile. Because Nieuwendijk is a five-minute walk from Centraal Station but a fifteen-minute trundle across cobblestones with a suitcase, a private airport transfer makes more practical sense than it might first appear. Schiphol is 19 km away and the drive takes around 27 minutes in light traffic, going west on the s100 and then south on the A10 and A4. AmstelCab handles the door-to-terminal run with a suited chauffeur, bottled water, phone chargers and a 60-minute free wait window, which removes the cobblestone-and-tram-track problem entirely.
Because Nieuwendijk is pedestrian-only, your AmstelCab chauffeur will park on Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal at the corner of Sint Nicolaasstraat, roughly 80 metres from the hotel entrance. Wait inside the Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre lobby with your luggage; the driver will come to the front desk to collect you and walk you to the car. Your chauffeur will text 10 minutes before arrival and confirm pickup point. If Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal is closed for a tram event or market, the fallback meeting point is the taxi rank on Martelaarsgracht beside Victoria Hotel.

For arrivals at Schiphol: add your flight number when booking and we'll track your landing automatically. Your chauffeur is in the arrivals hall with a name sign, ready for you. US-bound carriers (Delta, United, American) often face long passport-control queues; we recommend adding 40 minutes buffer time so your chauffeur waits exactly when you exit.
The neighborhood around the hotel
Centrum (Nieuwendijk) is the northern half of Amsterdam's medieval core, wedged between Centraal Station, Dam Square and the red-light district around Warmoesstraat. The street itself is pedestrian-only and lined with chain shops, late-night snack bars and a handful of brown cafes; one block west you reach Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal, a wide one-way avenue served by trams 2, 11, 12 and 13 and the only realistic place for a car to stop. Guests pick this area because almost everything tourists come to see, including the Royal Palace, the Anne Frank House and the start of the Jordaan, sits within a fifteen-minute walk. For the airport run, the practical considerations are straightforward: no vehicle access on Nieuwendijk itself, tight one-way patterns on the surrounding canals, but a clean shot to the A10 West via the Haarlemmerweg once you clear the centre.
Frequently asked questions
Does Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre have space for a taxi to wait outside?
Nieuwendijk is a pedestrianised shopping street, so taxis cannot stop directly in front of Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre. Your AmstelCab driver will instead wait on Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal or Martelaarsgracht, both about a one-minute walk from the lobby. The chauffeur handles your luggage from the hotel entrance to the car, so you do not have to wheel a suitcase across the street alone.
How early should I leave Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre for an international flight from Schiphol?
For long-haul or non-Schengen flights, we recommend leaving Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre about 3 hours before departure. The drive itself is 19 km and takes roughly 27 minutes outside rush hour, but morning traffic on the A10 between 07:00 and 09:30 can add 15-25 minutes. For Schengen flights with hand luggage only, 2.5 hours is usually comfortable.
Can the driver help with luggage from the hotel room down to the car?
AmstelCab chauffeurs meet you inside the lobby of Hotel Di Ann Amsterdam City Centre and assist with luggage from the front desk area to the vehicle on Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal. The hotel does not have a porter service, and the staircase to the upper floors is narrow and steep in the typical Amsterdam style, so we recommend bringing bags down to reception before the pickup time.
How does the meet & greet work for arrivals?
Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall at Schiphol with a sign showing your name. There's 60 minutes of complimentary waiting time from the moment you land. If you add your flight number we track delays automatically, so there is no need to message.
What is your cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 1 hour before pickup. Inside that window, we charge the full fare since the chauffeur is already en route. You can move the booking to a different time for free.
Which vehicle types are available?
Business Class (Mercedes EQE, E-Class, BMW i5, 5-Series), Van Class (Mercedes V-Class, EQV), First Class (Mercedes EQS, S-Class, BMW i7) and Ultra (Mercedes-Maybach S-Class). Ultra has a fixed price between Amsterdam and Schiphol; other Maybach rides are arranged via WhatsApp.

We track your flight from the moment you book. The first 60 minutes after landing are included, so slow baggage costs you nothing, and your chauffeur messages you around landing. They take the luggage and walk you to the car in the Privium section at the front of P1, directly opposite the terminal — a covered walk of about two minutes. Nobody is sent upstairs to find a car at Departures.
