Cheap Hotels in Jordaan

EuroCheapo's Guide to Cheap Hotels in Amsterdam

Neighborhood Description

Located west of Grachtengordel West, the Jordaan attracted the city's first immigrants in the 17th century. This was a period of incredible prosperity in Amsterdam. The Jordaan, then located outside of the city limits, wasn't subject to strict zoning and development regulations. The Jordaan's then-distance from Amsterdam proper is clear today in the architectural contrast it provides. In the early 20th century, the Jordaan became a working-class neighborhood and many buildings fell into sad disrepair. Since the 1980s, the area has seen extensive renovation. Due to its relatively inexpensive rents, it has experienced rebirth as an arty "alternative" neighborhood.
