they've_been_suckered Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Anyone recommend a decent hotel to stay in? Planning on seeing the sights with the missus so ideally within 20-30mins walk from Dam Sq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottincarlisle Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hotel Citadel is ok. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Hotel+Citadel+Amsterdam/@52.3756751,4.8901304,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x47c609c64dd5ff15:0xae2f42c7e0a49d2e!8m2!3d52.3756718!4d4.8923191 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherps Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 The NH City Centre was good.http://www.nh-hotels.com/hotel/nh-city-centre-amsterdam Just 2mns walk from Dam Sq and just at the other end of the block from one of the best places in Amsterdam if you like beer, Caffe Gollem, on Raamsteeg.

clarky1606 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 An idea is to stay at the airport if you cant find anything central. You can get the free shuttle buses to and from your hotel which run every 15-30 mins and then the tubes from the airport to central run all day & night. It is also easier on arrival & departure as you wont be ripped off by taxi drivers etc. The only downside being you spend a bit longer each day travelling in and out of central Amsterdam...

VASCO Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 The Botel is a good bet. Now situated in a different bit of water from previous years. Free ferry (10 minutes) to and from Central Station. Accommodation is good, has a bar with beers at €4 and does breakfast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huddersfield Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I stayed at a hotel near the airport a few years ago...it was a fantastic spot; half a dozen bars & restaurants, free bus to the airport & dead easy transport links to the centre so worth having a look around there I'd say.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Managed to get the other NH hotel (central) in a secret hotel booking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
