rumboj Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 Thought I might have been too early with the bidding on this on but was pleasantly surprised with the price I obtained. Regular price was $174 so 66% savings! Of course I used the BB PRICELINE link.P.S. I've never been to Amsterdam. Any suggestions? :D

Food? What kinds of food do you like?
rumboj Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Posted December 22, 2013 Hello Verbat. Sights and food would be great. I'm pretty open to all types of food.
Verbat Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 O.k, so there are few Nh hotels around Amsterdam but i think yours is the one that is close Leidseplein. This is one of the centers of Amsterdam for night life and for restaurants. Close to this location you have 2 of my favorite restaurants:1. Cafe De Klos - They have great steaks and amazing lamb shoulder which is my favorite. 2. Castell - They have probably one of the best ribs dishes i have ever had. Highly recommended.Now in general Amsterdam is a small place so you can see a lot of it in a short time. There are some central locations that everyone go to like:1. Dam Square2. Red light district. I've marked a street on the map and this is the main location of the red light district. You have small streets that are coming out of the location i marked and there are other areas in the city which have it as well but that's the main location.3. Shopping area. Again marked on the map. Those are the two main streets in Amsterdam for shopping.4. Anne Frank House5. Albert Cuyp market. Main Amsterdam market.Of course there are a lot of museums if you like that kind of stuff and you can find them all on the internet anyway.In General just walk around the city and you will see a lot of stuff.
rumboj Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks so much, Verbat. I will definitely be working these into my itinerary.
