Affordable Hotels in Amsterdam
Amsterdam’s most affordable hotels are, just like the city itself, brimming with character and vibrant nature. Those in the know love the Dutch capital for more than just its party scene—a land of canals, cobbled streets, bicycle culture, and charming independent eateries make it easy to spend a day simply ‘being’.

Here’s where you’ll find some of the cheapest, nicest hotels in Amsterdam.
