It had been a long trip to Amsterdam. I was glad to finally arrive and drop off the heavy luggage at the hotel. I’m a seasoned traveler to Amsterdam and can understand when some people might say “Don’t hang out around Rembrandplein. It’s for tourists.”...Maybe, but I just wanted to relax and have a nice dinner on the first day of my first vacation in six years. The Old Bell was close by and a peek in the window showed that it was busy and had a warm, friendly atmosphere. A good choice. The service was terrific and the food was excellent. There was even a cat sleeping near by. Just like home. I had a great time at the Old Bell and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Amsterdam.More
