In the third quarter of 2022, a little over 14 million guests booked accommodations in the Netherlands. That’s most likely because of all the reasons to visit.
Thanks to the high quality of life, visitors are hard-pressed to bump into a grumpy local. The country also has a rich cultural background and a booming art scene.
Almost every neighborhood has some kind of charming appeal and amazing accommodations. That begs a question.
Where should you stay when you visit the Netherlands? We’ve got a list that will help you narrow down your options. Check out this quick travel guide to learn more.
Hotel TwentySeven
First up on the list is Hotel TwentySeven. It’s located in Dam Square in Amsterdam. That puts it within walking distance of popular attractions such as The Royal Palace.
Every room comes with comfortable furnishings and a smart television. If you really want to relax and unwind, you can upgrade your room to include a whirlpool tub. The upgraded rooms also offer the best view of the city.
As far as food goes, you won’t go hungry. The hotel restaurant has plenty of delectable options.
Sea Lodges Bloemendaal
You’ll have your pick from three different lodges close to the Bloemendaal Sea. You’ll only be about 450 feet away from the nearest beach.
However, you’ll have access to everything you need for your vacation, including two spacious bedrooms and a full kitchen. You’ll also get to enjoy a sauna and an indoor swimming pool.
If you want to explore the surrounding area, there are cars available for you to rent.
Waldorf Astoria
If money is of no consequence and you want to stay in the lap of luxury, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel is for you. The rooms are almost $1,200 a night, but it’s located near all of Amsterdam’s best attractions. This includes the Van Gough Museum and Vondelpark.
Prepare to be pampered when you book a hotel at Waldorf Astoria. You’ll get the best night’s sleep of your life on the feather-soft mattress. The blackout curtains will keep the morning Amsterdam sun out of your face as you rest.
When you wake up, you can enjoy a cup of espresso from your in-room machine. There’s also an indoor pool and luxury spa. The nature lovers in your group will enjoy the gorgeous private garden area.
Each guest gets their own personal concierge who can make dinner and entertainment arrangements.
Luxury Suits Amsterdam
You won’t have to travel far to find something interesting near the Luxury Suits in Amsterdam. There are two historical museums within a ten-minute walk.
Like with the Waldorf Astoria, you’ll be able to sleep in thanks to the blackout curtains in your room. You won’t have to leave your room to be pampered. There are in-room massage options and room service available.
You can choose to get clean in a spacious walk-in shower or take a soak in the tub. You won’t have to worry about those in the suite next to yours disturbing your relaxing vacation because every room is soundproof.
Holiday Home
If you’re looking for a unique place to stay, Holiday Home in Huisduinen has you covered. These accommodations are located in an old lighthouse and provide a beautiful view of the sea.
You’ll only be a short walk away from the beach. If you want to explore the village and take in the area, you can rent a bike. Vacationers that are willing to take a ferry, can travel to Wadden Island.
Each home has one bedroom, a living area, and a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher.
De L’Europe
De L’Europe overlooks a canal in Amsterdam, giving guests a gorgeous view. You’ll find that this hotel has a little something for everyone in your group.
Book lovers will find themselves getting lost in the shelves of the library. Foodies will enjoy sampling cuisine from Bord’Eau and drinking cocktails at the bar.
At the end of a long day of exploring, you can wind down with a facial. Speaking of exploring, you’ll be close to countless shops and museums.
In the morning, you won’t have to worry about placing your feet on a chilly floor. They’re heated and so is the coffee that comes out of the in-room Nespresso machines.
Hotel Sofitel
Hotel Sofitel is one of the best hotels in Amsterdam for the beautiful Dutch Architecture alone. Every room is decked out in trendy decor and comfortable furnishings.
If you enjoy seafood, this is the hotel for you. There’s an award-winning seafood restaurant right on-site.
Don’t worry. If you don’t like fish, there’s always the bistro, cafe, and wine bar.
Like many of the other Netherlands hotels on this list, the Hotel Sofitel has an indoor pool and spa area. When it comes time for you to explore the city, you’ll be happy to know the hotel is a five-minute walk away from some of the best attractions in the area.
Houseboat Little Amstel
If the thought of staying in an old lighthouse sounded quirky, staying in a houseboat might seem even more absurd. It’s possible in the heart of the Netherlands countryside, though.
Houseboat Little Amstel is right near the Amstel River. While it might not have some of the same bells and whistles as the fancier accommodations mentioned above, it has its own charm. It’s within walking distance of museums, restaurants, and cozy cafes.
