150 vetted hotels, under-the-radar restaurants, beautiful bars, can’t-miss museums, tours, and yes — even the must-see tourist spots that are well worth a visit. This guide has it all — and I am so happy to share it with you. It has been 7 years since I first step foot in this special city. Now, Amsterdam is truly a second home. In honor of the occasion, I am proud to present this ultimate guide to my beloved ‘Dam, filled 100% with places that I have experienced and enjoyed firsthand. There are some real Easter Eggs in here: discount codes, personal tidbits, etc.. Think of it at a glimpse into my personal Amsterdam diary. Thinking about traveling to Amsterdam?

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!

I've lived in Amsterdam for 6 years. Throughout those years, lots of friends and family have visited me. This list has been compiled based on all those experiences. You won't get any better than this. The hotel offer in Amsterdam is enormous; you can easily get overwhelmed by the options. So here's my list of the best boutique hotels, in the city centre area. (The Pillow hotel is a bit out of the city centre, but too good to exclude) Enjoy your time in Amsterdam!
