Radisson Inn Airport
Hotel located just 4 kilometers from the Amsterdam airport. It has a 24-hour shuttle. From 6 in the morning it has shuttles to the airport every 15 minutes and from 11 in the morning every 30 minutes.
But after 23.30 at night, you have to go to the airport meeting point, following the signs of "hotel shuttle" to stop A9-A13, in front of the airport exit and at the stop press the button that puts "Radisson Inn", connecting directly to the hotel reception that sends you a shuttle to the airport.
The rooms are large and clean, with all the comforts, although somewhat impersonal.
They announce that they have a free Wi-Fi signal, for a single item, although we had no signal from the room.
Breakfast is not included in the price and is quite expensive, 15 euros per person.
For us it is a good option if you arrive at an hour when moving to the center is impossible.

Budget Hotel Liberty
The second of Amsterdam hotels where we stayed was the Budget Hotel Liberty, very central, located right next to the Singel Canal 5 minutes from the Central Station.
The rooms are small, but just for a few days. The bathrooms are shared and although they are quite correct, they are very small and in some moments a more frequent cleaning service would be needed.
Liberty Hotel in Amsterdam
Breakfast is not included in the price, but we recommend you take it in a cafeteria just around the corner where they serve a delicious apple strudel.
The hotel is also a 10-minute walk from Dam Square and a little less from the Red Light District.
They have Wi-Fi signal throughout the establishment of quite good quality.
Make your reservation here: (Update 2017: This hotel has closed. We recommend Singel Hotel, which has the same location and similar characteristics)
