My wife and I just got back from our 11 day Caribbean cruise. I will have many blog posts over the next few weeks, including Sunday Trees, Monday Window, and Thursday Doors, to share. Meanwhile, we are planning our next cruise to the Baltic in September. We want to arrive 2 days before our cruise starts and I am looking for a great place to stay for those two days. Do any of you have recommendations?
Hi Charles. My comments on various websites yesterday seem to have been disappearing into the ether, or into Spam. So you may already have this.
I would heartily recommend the Piet Hein hotel in Amsterdam. I’ve stayed there a number of times and have always enjoyed.
The location is perfect. In a lovely street facing VondelPark Park. Minutes walk from Leidseplein, the Museum Quarter, the Outer Canal Ring, the designer shopping area too.
The Amsterdam Marriott is at the top of same street , and that would be my second choice.
Whilst there are many good hotels in Amsterdam, there are also many to avoid, in my opinion, due to location.
As you’ll be there for such a short time, you’ll want to get it right!
I’ll now read your latest post.
Kindest regards, Helen

Ps in Piet Hein, look at Superior or deluxe room . Standard rooms in Amsterdam are tiny.
