Mid range hotels in Amsterdam
Amsterdam is a city that is easy to enjoy. The flight from the UK is short, the train from Schiphol takes you straight into the centre and the city is small enough to explore on foot or by tram. Once you have dropped your bags at your hotel you can walk past canals, visit museums, relax in cafés or join a boat tour without needing detailed plans. This makes the city perfect for a weekend away.
Mid range hotels are ideal for this type of trip. They give you comfort without the high price of luxury hotels and offer much nicer rooms than budget accommodation. Many of these hotels sit in the city’s most pleasant neighbourhoods, close to parks, markets and the canal belt. You get a good night’s sleep and a practical base for your days in the city.
British travellers choose mid range hotels because they offer the right mix of price and experience. You get clean rooms, friendly staff and locations that are easy to reach. Most hotels in this category also have extra touches such as comfortable lounges, good breakfasts and relaxed interiors. The balance is what makes the category so strong.
