Staying in Amsterdam

January is a fairly quiet month in Amsterdam in terms of visitors. That offers quite a few options in terms of accommodation. Below is a list of hotels with which we have had positive experiences, varying in price and distance from the Waag/Fablab. What can also be beneficial is if you share an airbnb with several people. Always check the distance by public transport: some places just outside Amsterdam (especially to the north) are good and quickly accessible until midnight (all night on Friday and Saturday). Use 9292 (public transport) for this.

We’ve selected charming hotels with a personal touch in various price categories. Our previous guests have had a nice experience here:
