City HotelEditor's Pick

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

If you want to stay in the middle of Amsterdam's action, the 13-room City Hotel is a sure bet. This two-star pick has Utrechtstraat, one of the city's best shopping streets, on one side, and the café-packed Rembrandtplein on the other.

Get the party started right in the stylish lobby with red plush chairs and dark wood tables. End the night in simple, airy rooms with striped, pastel-colored blankets and great views overlooking the city. The art on the walls is a bit cheesy. Bathrooms are very spacious and almost clinically white and clean.

The staff here is helpful and friendly (they kindly warned us to duck on our way to the third floor, as the ceiling lowers over steep stairs). One of the two-bed rooms we saw was rather stuffy, which could be a problem on a summer night, when sleeping with the window open is nearly impossible.
