A small "hotel-pension" with only five rooms, De Harmonie is really quite and experience…read more First, I need to correct the website address is is www.harmonie-edam.nl the is a typo in the Yelp listing (I sent a correction but will keep it in the review until it's corrected). The place is really a pub with a few rooms upstair. It can be a bit noisy in the evening because of the pub but rooms are clean and nice (European size, so not very large). Price are on the cheap side and you get an excellent value. I paid 60 euro for a single room and that included breakfast. The dutch breakfast is served in the morning in the pub and include coffee, juice, local cheese, eggs, bread and cold meats. Quite good to start the morning. The wifi is also free (rare in Europe). The hotel is well located the the little town's center with some nice restaurant and cheese shops nearby. Edam is know for originating the "edam" cheese of course which is quite tasty especially when aged. It is an historic walled city and it is quite charming. I did use Edam as based the last time I went to IBC (International Broadcasting Convention) in Amsterdam when all the hotels there are booked and prices are outrageous. Edam is a short 30 minutes drive to the RAI exhibition center (less to downtown Amsterdam) and this hotel offer that way an peaceful, nice and inexpensive alternative to staying in Amsterdam (yes, it does imply a bit more logistics). The easy free street parking in front of the hotel makes it easy to commute to Amsterdam by car. An alternative is to use the bus service to Amsterdam which is a bit slower but also convenient.

Lots of reasons to visit Edam. This beautifull place just outside Amsterdam has a great old centre…read morewith canals, bridges. A mini mini Amsterdam that should be in your agenda's when exploring places around Amsterdam. The Harmonie is a Dutch bar with white sand on the floor. This was used to keep the floor clean from sailors chewing tabacco and spitting on the floor. Als the sand was used to attract people by creating nice drawings in it. No spitting during my visit yesterday, its there just to keep the floor clean or to look bit authentic :). The Harmonie hosted the Walk about Music festival where singer songwriters perform in different locations in Edam. Walk in Edam, enjoy the city and the music of the performers. Had a view drinks in the Harmonie and was great atmosphere there. Will return sooon !!
