Three generations of Aalders have been running this small three-star hotel spread out across two buildings behind the Rijksmuseum since 1955 so you can be sure that the staff know a thing or two about customer service. Each room differs slightly in size, but all are equipped with cable TV, phone, climate control, private bathroom with hairdryer and shower or bathtub and free wireless internet access. The red, blue or brown carpeting and plain white walls won’t win any design competitions, but it’s a friendly, comfortable place to stay and a breakfast buffet is included in the price. Bike rental is also available.
