Amsterdam West is a very hip area of Amsterdam, there are lots of great cafes, restaurants, bars, cultural activities, but also some very nice hotels. When I go on a city trip I feel like it’s also nice to stay in a hotel that isn’t right in the city center because it allows you to explore the more local spots. From hip hotels to intimate B&Bs, these are the best hotels in Amsterdam West.
