Amsterdam hotels

Can anyone recommend a hotel in Amsterdam or a central location for us to look at? We are planning on going for a weekend in about six weeks time.

    How much do you want to spend?
    Do you need en suite or are you prepared to share a communal bathroom/toilet?

    The site I generally use to book is:-

    www.easytobook.com

    Do a date search then there is a drop down menu, I always stay close to Centraal station as it is so convenient.

    En suite definately. Obviously we would rather not spend too much on a hotel, but if it is central then we are flexible.

    The Hotel Old Quarter has en suite rooms, walls are thin though... but I liked it, the Hotel Terminus is great but too expensive now.
    I go 2 or 3 times a year and am back in december so if I can help I will.
    See my previous post for the hotel booking site I use, always check around as they are not always cheapest but usually are competetive.

    www.hotels.nl is another choice but once again check the prices.
    Contact the hotes directly And you MAY get a better deal.
