Family-Friendly Hotels

Amstel Botel -- Though it is more common to find youthful spirits traveling alone or in small groups here, there's no reason it shouldn't work for families. For kids, there's the added interest of being on a ship, even if it isn't going anywhere.

Estheréa -- Though most rooms in this canal-house hotel are rather small, all are tastefully furnished, and a few have bunk beds.

Stayokay Amsterdam Vondelpark -- This ideal choice for families traveling on a limited budget offers a good blend of facilities, space, easygoing atmosphere, and security. It's got a green location in the city's famous Vondelpark.
