The hotel is in the calm and scenic IJburg district, right by IJmeer Lake. It’s peaceful but still super convenient. Tram 26 is just a short walk away and takes you straight into Amsterdam’s city center in about 15 minutes.

If you’re driving, there’s limited private parking available. Public transport options nearby also make it easy to get around the city without hassle.

The food here is a real highlight.

• Restaurant FIVE is by the water and serves Italian, Dutch, and French-inspired dishes. Everything is made with fresh, seasonal ingredients, and the kitchen works hard to reduce waste and avoid single-use plastics.
• Wind Sky Bar is up on the rooftop, offering fantastic views over the lake. It’s the perfect spot for a cocktail and some light bites after a day out.

You can look forward to a made-to-order breakfast with fresh, locally sourced items in the mornings, served until 11 AM on weekends.

There’s lots to enjoy around the hotel:

• Blijburg Beach is just a few minutes away, great for a swim or relaxing on the sand.
• Theo van Gogh Park is around 700 meters from the hotel and offers a nice spot to walk or chill in the greenery.
• IJburg Harbor is nearby, too, with a marina and water activities like sailing or paddleboarding.
• Deka Market is only five minutes on foot and full of local shops, food spots, and a bit of nightlife.

If you care about the planet but still want a comfortable, modern place to stay, Four Elements Hotel Amsterdam is a solid pick. It blends eco-conscious living with stylish design and easy access to everything the city offers.
