Book at least 2-3 months ahead for Amsterdam stays in April-May (tulip season), King's Day (April 27), and July-August - accommodation sells out and prices triple

💡

Amsterdam adds 12.5% tourist tax on top of listed prices - factor this into your budget, not shown in most search results

💡

Rotterdam and The Hague offer significantly better value than Amsterdam with high-quality hotels at 30-50% lower prices and easy train connections to Amsterdam
