Exploring the Netherlands? Enhance your experience with these practical stay hacks, helping you make the most of your visit.
Fast Fact: Did you know? Approximately 90% of Amsterdam's hotels are located in historical buildings, like the Eden Hotel Amsterdam, which beautifully blends modern comfort with classic architecture.
Local Hack: Inquire about 'ontbijt' (breakfast) options when booking your stay. Many hotels in the Netherlands provide breakfast for free or at a discounted rate for direct bookings.
Hidden Gem: The NDSM Wharf (only a 15-minute ferry ride from Amsterdam's central station) offers an artistic vibe with street art, unique cafes, and a vibrant community that travelers often overlook.
Smart Tip: Booking a hotel on a Thursday or Sunday can save you up to 25% compared to peak weekend rates, as many locals travel on Friday and return on Monday.
