Where to stay in Slotervaart
How the choice of base plays out on the ground.
The Arc is entered on the record here, and it says most of what a traveller needs to know: Slotervaart is built for living and working, with the visitor rooms gathered further in toward central Amsterdam. Museum Het Broekerhuis is here. So is the Arminiuskerk, a short way from Jacob Marisplein 20.
Anyone drawn to the churches and the museum of Nieuw-West can sleep in the city and come out for a morning.
