If you spin for two-wheelers, the Van Ostade might be the spot for you. The one-star hotel rents out bicycles at reasonable rates and offers bike tours around the town—all with the cost of your stay!
The 16 rooms are ho-hum, some with narrow bunk beds looking out onto a pleasant garden; others offer a view of the tranquil Van Ostadestraat and beds that allow more stretching room. Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, and some have balconies (ask ahead). Guests share a clean, efficient, white-tile shower and toilet on the first floor hallway (it does smell as if bikers walk through quite often). Private facilities are also available.
We like the bright, fun-filled lounge area downstairs. Reasonable rates and the cool, quiet location close to the world-famous Albert Cuyp Markt are pluses as well, though at the Van Ostade, it's really all about the bikes.

About the Van Ostade Bicycle Hotel neighborhood
De Pijp may sit just to the east of Museumplein but it is very different from the Museumplein in temperament and culture. While Museumplein is upscale, De Pijp is scrappy. Once Amsterdam's very first suburb, the neighborhood is home today to large numbers of immigrants from Suriname, Morocco, and Turkey. De Pijp is also the site of the Albert Cuyp Market, which is not merely Amsterdam's largest and best-known public market, but also the largest public market in all of Europe. Don't miss De Pijp's Sarphatipark, a lovely green oasis of a park plopped down in the center of the neighborhood.
