Conscious Hotel Vondelpark

Since I've been little, I've gone to the Netherlands on vacation every year. It is probably my favorite country in the world, with its beautiful architecture, quaint little towns, endless aesthetic shops, millions of bikes, and some of the best treats out there (looking at you Stroop waffles, Poffertjes, and Tony's Chocolate 🧡). This is a small guide to Amsterdam with some of my favorite places around the "Venice of the North", including: ☕️ Cafés & Bakeries 👩🏻‍🍳 Restaurants 🖼️ Museums & Culture 🚲 Activities (incl. food activities) 🏨 Hotel Recommendations 🚂 Tipps on Transportation

Having lived in this city for almost 10 years, I've seen more and more tourist spots pop up in Amsterdam. Funny enough you usually don't find any locals in the city's center anymore. I'm here to guide you through this amazing historic city, beyond the red light district, Anne Frank house, and the canals (okay I'll show a bit of the canals). ------------------ This guide to Amsterdam as a local will show you: 🛏️ The best places to stay 🍲 Eating like a local 🏛️ Museums and other activities

Enjoy this Guide from an Amsterdam LOCAL. I've lived in Amsterdam since 2014 and have personally curated this list with you in mind. Whether you're looking for luxury, traditional, or budget, I've laid out these recommendations in a way where you can start with finding where you'd like to stay and go from there. Keep in mind that the city is very easy to get around, so you don't need to be in the center of the city for things to be easily accessible!
