The story behind the V: How a letter came to mean much more than a name

What started as a location became a symbol – of freedom, welcome, and doing things with heart.

Depends which V you’re crashing at.
Fizeaustraat : Tucked away in East Amsterdam (Amsteldorp, if you want to sound local). Leafy streets, hidden gems, zero tourist traps.
Nesplein: In the heart of the city, right in the old theatre district. Steps from Dam Square, wrapped in canals. The real stage is outside your window.
Frederiksplein: Central but lowkey. Next to the canals, near the Albert Cuyp market, walking distance to Museumplein. Classic Amsterdam, minus the clichés.
No mysteries here, just three spots to drop your bags
Fizeaustraat: Fizeaustraat 2, right behind Amstel Station. Easy come, easy go.
Nesplein: Nes 49, just a heartbeat from Dam Square and Rokin.
Frederiksplein: Weteringschans 136, 1017 XV Amsterdam. Or V-Lofts are located in another building just around the corner!
Easy to find, impossible to forget.
Check-in starts at 3 PM at all locations. If you arrive early you can leave your bags with us and go explore the city.

You can book a late check-out for 20 euros until 1 PM or for 40 euros until 2 PM. Just do it on our website when you book or send an email to stay@hotelv.nl.
No stress if you just want to drop your bags. Leave them at reception and keep roaming the city after check-out.
time is check-out, and can I store my bags after check-out at each hotel?
We provide shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion of our own brand ETIKA. There is also a hairdryer in your room, so you can leave some room in your bags for souvenirs!
We keep things cool in different ways.
At Fizeaustraat the building has climate control and you can set the temperature in your room. Fans and heaters are available on request.
At Nesplein there’s central climate control to keep the vibe steady. Every room comes with a fan and we can bring a heater if you need one.
At Frederiksplein only the Loft has air-conditioning. During the warmer months our housekeeping team takes extra steps to keep rooms comfortable. Fans are placed in the rooms and blinds are lowered to block out the heat and keep things cool.
Yes, you can. Just swing by reception and we’ll fill you in. Bikes can’t be reserved, so it’s first come first served.
No gyms on site, but we’ve got your workout covered.
At Frederiksplein there’s a sweet deal with TrainMore next door. As a Fred guest you get 25 percent off a day pass—just 15 euros instead of 20. Mention you’re staying with us at their front desk.
