Hotel Arena
The rooms in this restored 19th Century orphanage have a minimalist decor. The hotel, which has its own restaurant
and trendy nightclub, is on the Gravesandestraat by the Oosterpark and near the
Artis Zoo.
Hotel
Avenue
This three-star deluxe hotel was once a warehouse of the East India Company. It
has 50 rooms and is a two-minute walk from Amsterdam's Central Station.
Hotel Damrak
As the name implies, the three-star Damrak is on Amsterdam's main tourist
street, with easy access to trams, shops, museums, and the railroad station.
Canal tours depart from a pier across the street.
Hotel de Looier
It's only a five-minute walk to the Leidseplein from this building in the
Jordaan district, which was built as a diamond factory in 1886 and converted
recently into a hotel. If you can't decide between the area's many bars and
nightclubs, try the hotel's own "Rock In and Roll Out" café.
Hotel Heemskerk
"The smallest three-star hotel in Amsterdam" has nine rooms that range from a
single to a deluxe double with Jacuzzi and balcony. A triple and quad are also
available. The Heemskerk was built in 1927 and is located in the Museum Quarter.
Hotel HEM Maas
The Maas (see photo above) is convenient to the Leidseplein, the Rijksmuseum,
and the Vondelpark. Rooms range from singles to quads, and some have whirlpools
and/or waterbeds. All floors are accessible by elevator.

NH City Centre Hotel
This large hotel, which is also known as the Tulip Inn Amsterdam City Centre, offers 209 rooms (including rooms for non-smokers and disabled
guests). Unlike many Amsterdam hotels, the NH City Centre has its own parking garage.

NH
Amsterdam Centre, a five-star luxury hotel.)
IBIS Stopera
If you're looking for a modern hotel in the three-star range, this member of the
IBIS chain is a worth a peek. It opened in 2000 and is about 5 minutes on foot
from the Waterlooplein. The hotel is wheelchair-accessible.
Hotel Piet Hein
Rooms are furnished with a nautical theme at the Piet Hein, which faces the
Vondelpark in the Museum Quarter. You can book a single, double, or "granlit"
(double bed) room.

Prinsen Hotel
Location is one reason to choose the Prinsen, a 45-room hotel on a residential
street near the Leidseplein. Another reason is the building itself, which
incorporates two classic Dutch townhouses and has a private garden.
Rho Hotel
The Rho occupies the former quarters of a gold-trading company, and the Art Deco
lobby once belonged to a theatre. It's near the Dam square in central Amsterdam.
Parking is available, and you can rent bicycles for sightseeing.
Hotel Smit
The Smit is
on a shopping street near major museums and other tourist attractions. The KLM
shuttle bus from Schiphol Airport stops outside the hotel.
Kosher
Hotel La Richelle
You can get a Kosher breakfast at this three-star hotel near the World Trade Center, which has two
synagogues within walking distance.
