Take a chance on the Hotel Abba. Located on a main thoroughfare just north of Vondelpark, this modern red brick hotel has 30 bright, basic rooms at low prices.
The Abba theme goes a little beyond the name, as the wicker furniture is reminiscent of the disco days. Beds are fresh with thick white duvets, and windows are covered in heavy curtains. Some rooms have private bathrooms. We advise asking for a room in the back. Not only are they quieter, but they also offer views of the garden.
It's a 10-minute walk from the Hotel Abba to Leidseplein, the Rijksmuseum, and the Van Gogh museum team. Nuala at reception, who we're sure doubles as a dancing queen, advises booking early, especially for Easter and Queen's Day (April 30). An extensive breakfast buffet with juice, meats, and cheeses is included in the price.
