Lloyd Hotel Amsterdam

by Urbanaut It’s safe to say that budget isn’t a constraint at Lloyd— this Amsterdam icon also happens to be the world’s first 1-5 star hotel. You know what that means– whether you’re looking for a bunk to spend the night, or all the trappings of a full-blown luxury suite, swing by this historic establishment. As if that wasn’t enticing enough, although the hotel allows you to pick a room type, the exact room you get, out of the 117 unique ones they have, is a total surprise. You might get a wood-panelled suite or a sleek white room– you’ll know when you open the door. Now that’s the kind of surprise we can get behind.

by Deepti Rao This hotel which overlooks the idyllic Oosterpark in Amsterdam East, is steeped in history. A former catholic orphanage, this boutique 4-star hotel retains many of the iconic fixtures of the original monumental building.

De Hallen Amsterdam

by Deepti Rao De Hallen is a hub for culture, art, design, food and film! Housed in an old tram station, this architectural landmark has lovely boutique stores, a monthly market of local designers, a bustling food hall, art galleries, dance lessons, film theatres and much more.

Conscious Hotel Vondelpark

by Deepti Rao Conscious Hotels make traveling a little more sustainable by offering a chain of four eco-hotels in the heart of Amsterdam. With their green cleaning and maintenance practices, energy consumption, waste disposal and organic, locally sourced food, this chain of hotels goes the extra mile to be conscious and stylish at the same time.

by Deepti Rao Volkshotel is where quirky design meets an easy-going vibe. With a co-working space, restaurants and truly unique rooms, this hotel is more than just a place to sleep. Located in a former newspaper building, the hotel is a great option for an affordable distinctive stay.

by Urbanaut Stout & Co is a bit of everything, really– the class of a luxury suite with the warmth and friendliness of a local bed and breakfast. It’s housed on the site of a former brewery, which is long gone but remembered through the statue opposite the front door. They’re a design-forward establishment, as you’ll see when you enter the room you’ve booked, complete with a private terrace and personal kitchenette. We love the attention to detail at Stout & Co– from the art by young Belgian and Dutch designers to a great selection of magazines. Oh, and we can’t forget the Aesop products in the en-suite bathrooms– a definitive win.

@droog amsterdam

by Ksenija It’s all in one place: gallery, shop, restaurant, and hotel (for one couple only). They’ve got a new terrace and a little fairy tale garden as well. Swing by for your dose of design and coffee.

The Hoxton, Amsterdam

by Urbanaut The Hoxton checks several boxes. Firstly, it’s located in the Nine Streets, which just happens to be one of Amsterdam’s most hip locales that’s home to cool boutiques and charming restaurants. Despite being a part of a hotel series, this version of The Hoxton is truly Amsterdam, from the menu down to the architecture– after all, it’s housed in storied canal houses typical of this side of the world. You’ll get all the perks you expect from a great hotel– WiFi, hot beverages, hairdryers and snacks to beat midnight cravings. The hotel also earns brownie points for Lotti’s, which packs all the must-haves including coffee and cocktails.
