You should arrange your own hotel for the duration of the conference, but we can give a couple of suggestions that are close, not-too-expensive, or both:
- Eden Lancaster Hotel (https://www.thelancasterhotelamsterdam.com/en/) - on the #19 tram line in a quiet neighbourhood "De Plantage". Also within walking distance of the city centre
- Eden Manor Hotel (https://www.themanorhotelamsterdam.com/en/) - within walking distance of Nikhef, quality hotel and on the #19 tram line.
- Hotel Casa (https://hotelcasa.nl/) - youthful hotel near the Amstel train station. on the #40 bus route and with metro access to anywhere in Amsterdam
- OZO hotel Arena (https://www.ozo-hotels.com/nl/hotels/ozo-hotels-arena-amsterdam) - cheper option somewhat outside of the centre in the Bijlmer business district), but with a direct metro to Amstel station from where a bus takes you to Nikhef. And go to the city centre any time in the evening
- Motel One (https://www.motel-one.com/nl/hotels/amsterdam/hotel-amsterdam-waterlooplein/) - in the city centre, but on the #19 tram line so you can return back in the morning to TIIME
