Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Amsterdam-Centrum

My friend and I choose to stay here, since it was close to Zaanse-Schaans and Amsterdam Noord. And I must say: It’s the nicest Airbnb I’ve ever been to so far. I’d definitely recommend it to others, who’d like to wind out and relax after a very long day in the city and just wanna feel like home: this is the place. Marjolein has put so much love and detail to make this place super cozy. I really loved it. And the neighborhood feels super safe and there are some cafes close by with a nice view of the harbor. Definitely a must stay place, if you’re looking for a relaxing place. Thanks a lot Marjolein for letting us stay here.

We had a wonderful time at Anthony’s apartment. The location is fantastic - very walkable to many attractions and restaurants but on a peaceful and quiet street. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom was nice and dark - great for jet lag. We didn’t make use of the kitchen or outdoor space, but that was nice as well. Anthony and Zino were very responsive and gave lots of good suggestions for local restaurants and cafes. We would absolutely stay here again.

Monica’s place is a fantastic location. It is in a quiet area but so close to the city action. It was very clean and had comfortable beds. They were very accommodating to our early arrival and said it was no problem to store our bags several hours prior to check in. Highly recommend and would stay there again.

Haico’s place was amazing! It was so beautiful and private! Felt like we were in a fairy tale! Haico and his family were so friendly and helpful! The Airbnb is right a bus stop which takes you in and out of the city! Will definitely be back! 🥰

Bart was extremely friendly and accommodating. If I return to Amsterdam I'll definitely be looking to see if his space is available again.

Everything is great, nice cozy accommodation. Very rustic and close to nature, a beautiful wooden cottage. Thanks to Astrid for the lovely stay.

Great location near Artis Zoo. The apartment was cozy and comfortable, providing a quiet and peaceful retreat after exploring Amsterdam. All amenities were spot on, and easy access to public transportation made getting around the city convenient. Nice touch seeing The 7th Guest game on the shelves - brought back childhood memories! Would recommend for a relaxing stay!

I had a wonderful stay at Albert’s guesthouse! Albert was incredibly supportive, responsive, and friendly throughout my visit. He even picked me up from the bus station at midnight, which I truly appreciated, and kindly lent me his iPhone adapter. The guesthouse is beautiful, full of natural light, and surrounded by peaceful nature. It’s in a great location—quiet and relaxing, yet not too far from the city. You can even use one of the bikes parked at the property to explore the area, or bike to the closest bus stop which is 10 minutes away then take bus to Amsterdam central station, the bus takes around 15 mints. The place has everything you need for a comfortable and refreshing stay. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to escape the city for a while. I will definitely return in the near future—thank you, Albert!

The place where we stayed was beautiful and located very close to the city center, which made everything easily accessible. The town is very nice and welcoming, with a charming and cozy atmosphere. We really enjoyed our time there!

Fantastic apartment, really clean and comfortable in a great neighbourhood: peaceful but walking distance to everything you could need. Loes and Fokke are wonderful hosts, warm and helpful- we had a brilliant few days exploring the city from the perfect base.

Absolutely loved our stay in Amsterdam! The location couldn’t have been better — we walked everywhere and only needed a taxi to/from the airport. The communication and hosts were fantastic — super responsive, friendly, and helpful throughout. The recommendations were spot on and made the whole trip even more memorable. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. We’ll 100% be back — highly recommend!

Exactly as described, great place!

Arjen has quite the incredible apartment near the train station. Nice sized Duplex with outdoor deck off the bedrooms. It couldn't have been more comfortable, with great light, herbs and berries growing on the deck that he encouraged you to consume. It's convenient to almost everything. As others have said the stairs, at first seem daunting, but once you get used to it, it stops being a problem. Arjen was there too meet us when we arrived. He generously carried our bags up the stairs, acclimated us to the space and then took us on a tour of the neighborhood. He was there when we left to go to the airport at 6:30 am to carry our bags back down the steps. He's very charming and articulate. He was never intrusive but always responsive. He loves his city and is willing to share locals only things to do. Next time I come to Amsterdam I'll look to to stay here first.

Everything was smooth and helpfull. I never met a household better than Inge in my life. She is very helpful and kind in every aspect.

We had a wonderful stay and it was a perfect apartment for our family of 4. The location was extremely easy to walk to/from sites and we felt the space was private and safe even though in a lively neighborhood. Would absolutely recommend and stay again!

I enjoyed the neighborhood. Lots to do without being in the middle of tourist attractions. Hans is a great host.

Lovely place to stay. House as described, very cute and cosy. Very close to bus stop where from you can easily reach Amsterdam city centre. Very good contact with host.

This apartment was amazing for our quick trip to Amsterdam. The location is perfect—right on one of the main canals and walkable to everything. Helena was such a gracious host and gave us some great recs for vintage shopping, drinks, and eats. The space was well appointed and she was so flexible with our arrival and departure times. I would 100% recommend this place and would stay here again on a future visit.

My first visit with my daughter to Amsterdam. We had several activities planned and our location was perfect: Access to tram. Very walkable area. Restaurants, coffee shops, grocery markets. The suite was comfortable and large enough for two people. We enjoyed ourselves and no worries regarding the accommodations.

The Condominium is in a nice quiet part of Amsterdam, but still easy to get to city centre. Was very clean and comfortable.

We had a lovely stay at Peet & Oscar’s. They were very responsive and accommodating. We had everything we need, and enjoyed our time there :) Thank you!

This place was wonderful! It was just as described. We enjoyed listening to the birds (wild parakeets and others) as we sat on the balcony in the mornings. The stairs are steep and narrow but that is just part of being in Amsterdam. One thing to note, there are 2 showers, 2 sinks, but only 1 toilet. It didn’t cause any problem for me, but those staying in the first floor bedroom will have to climb up stairs in the middle of the night. Overall, I highly recommend!

We enjoyed staying at Fleur’s apartment. It is very close to a tram stop which made it easy to get around, and it was well situated between the main areas of the city, making it a good base to explore from. The apartment was nice - it had everything we needed for a couple days in the city. The only thing to note is that the stairs within the apartment (from living area to bedroom) are narrow and steep, but this seems quite typical of stairs in this area- the same was true of stairs in restaurants in the area. Overall we had a great stay and I would stay there again!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Mel & Henri’s place! From the moment we arrived, they were so warm and welcoming, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and full of charm—it truly felt like a home away from home. Every little detail was thoughtfully arranged, and their hospitality made all the difference. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
