Note for everyone !!!!!!
There are a number of “hotels” in Amsterdam (especially on the Damrak and surrounding areas) that although technically ARE 2* or 3* hotels, are i fact not fit for human habitation !!
I know this cos I have made the mistake in the past and would never do it again. By all means follow the http://www.YELLOWPAGES.nl link, but you might want to check it out on tripadvisor.com or something similar prior to booking
(One example : 3* central hotel on the Damrak had blood stained bedding, no lift to 6th floor room, and the room itself was about 8ft square and had NO heating…This was a “luxury double”)
Err on the side of caution people !!!!
