“Budget hotel near the stadium and park, great for festival-goers who want to avoid the tourist crowds.”
If you're coming to Amsterdam for a concert or festival, and you’re not into the hustle of the Jordaan or canal ring, this one’s for you. My friend Sara stayed here last month for a football match and said it was spot on—clean, no nonsense, and right near the action. The Corendon Amsterdam New-West is in the Stadionbuurt, which is one of those quieter, residential neighborhoods. It’s not buzzing like the city center, but it’s not far from Vondelpark and Johan Cruyff Arena, so you’re not too far from the action. I live near the area, and honestly, it’s a nice change from the touristy parts. There are local canals, some old Amsterdam School architecture, and it feels like a real slice of Amsterdam life, minus the crowds. The rooms are simple but clean, and the vibe is more group-friendly than anything flashy. It’s not the kind of place you’d want to stay for a romantic weekend, but it’s perfect for travelers who want to keep costs down and don’t mind being a bit off the beaten path. I always tell people who are going to the stadium to book this place, especially if you’re staying for a few nights. It’s a good budget option, and it’s not like you’re paying premium prices for a view or a fancy lobby. The staff are helpful, and it’s not too far from public transport if you do want to head into the city center. My coworker Tom went here last year for a big event and said it was a solid value. Just know that it’s not in the heart of Amsterdam, so if you’re planning to walk around the museums or the Red Light District, you might want to factor in extra travel time. It’s not a hotel you’d find in a guidebook, but it’s a reliable stop for those who know what they’re looking for. If you’re not into the touristy parts, this place works well for a low-key, affordable stay. Check if that deal’s still on if you’re planning to visit soon, and book early if you’re going during a big event. It’s a quiet spot, but it’s got the right kind of charm for people who want to be close to the action without the chaos.
