The 11 Best Hotels for Families in Amsterdam

As a city, Amsterdam welcomes families – though the wares on show in some shop windows may inspire awkward questions from enquiring young minds. Families may find some hotels a bit cramped, especially those in converted old houses where space is at a premium. Not all hotels in older buildings have elevators, so getting to attic rooms is a chore with smaller children. However, in our collection of the best hotels for families in Amsterdam, you'll find spacious self-catering apartments near open-air markets where shopping is fun, family-sized suites, and luxury perks like pools. So why not browse through our list to start planning your next family getaway?

For self-catering

Dutch Masters is a chic city collection of luxury self-catering apartments. Interiors are based on famous Dutch artists and boast heritage features like detailed ceilings and large windows, as well as unique design pieces. With a central location, this is a luxurious option for families.
Yays Amsterdam Salthouse Canal is a contemporary hotel with self-contained apartments in Zeeheldenbuurt. Accommodation is sleek and stylish, offering separate living space, self-catering facilities, and groceries delivered to your door. Kids will love the option of staying in a houseboat.
Amsterdam Prince Island by Yays is a boutique hotel offering self-contained apartments on the canalside in Bickerseiland. The apartments are great for families or groups, with multiple, cosy bedrooms and separate living spaces, plus self-catering facilities.

For family suites

Hotel JL NO76 is a chic modern hotel in a 19th-century townhouse on a residential street right in the heart of the city. A courtyard garden, honesty bar, and bike rental make this an easy city base, while families will benefit from the spacious family suites.
At Park Hotel Amsterdam spacious family suites are made for contemporary families with coffee machines, living areas, and a separate area to work. Well positioned between Leidseplein and Vondelpark you'll find the main attractions nearby and the property also boasts the famed MOMO restaurant.
Hotel Roemer is a simply styled boutique stay with a homely feel set in an 18th-century townhouse near Vondelpark. Spacious (for Amsterdam) family rooms feature a double bed and bunk beds plus there is a park nearby for kids to run around. With bikes to rent too, this is a quaint choice.

For the design

Families can rent both suites at Mokum Suites for a perfect home-away-from-home. The suites in a restored canal house share a kitchen and dining room meaning you'll have plenty of space. Pick this though for the design which is chic and modern without losing the heritage property's original charm.
