Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Hoola van Nootenstraat sits high up in a new complex, so the city buzz is below you. At 61 m² it is compact, but the A+ energy label keeps running costs low. The rent of €2,450 is 16% above the neighbourhood average, which reflects the new construction and central location. Compared to other apartments in Utrecht, this is on the high side.
This is Utrecht's busiest area, right by the station and the Jaarbeurs. One resident says: "In terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent." They also mention feeling uncomfortable walking alone late at night. The neighbourhood has a very high address density and is mostly made up of small households. For more context, see the Hoog-Catharijne NS en Jaarbeurs neighbourhood.

The Christelijk Gymnasium Utrecht is a couple of streets away, and there are several primary schools within a ten-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and restaurants are on your doorstep. For more about the wider area, see the municipality of Utrecht.

In terms of amenities it's wonderful to live in the centre, but it's also very busy and not accessible by car. Public transport is excellent. I never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of all the homeless people and creepy individuals. There should be much more green space in the centre for my liking. It could be so much better. We do have a very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex.

About Hoola van Nootenstraat 281, Utrecht
The rent is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €2,107, but the apartment is new-build with an A+ energy label. The floor area is 30% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 87 m², so you are paying a premium for the central location and modern finish.
The energy label is A+, which is very efficient. You can expect low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. The apartment was built in 2025, so it meets modern insulation standards.
Utrecht Centraal station is 1.4 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is right next to the station, so public transport connections are excellent.
One resident notes that they never feel comfortable walking alone late at night because of homeless people and 'creepy individuals'. The total number of crimes in the neighbourhood is 3,223, which is high, but this is a very central urban area.
The listing does not mention a private garden or balcony. However, the resident mentions a 'very nice green courtyard at the apartment complex', so there is shared outdoor space.
The listing does not state the number of rooms.
