Amsterdam

Hans Brinker Hotel

http://www.hans-brinker.com/

Welcome to the Hans Brinker Budget Hotel, Amsterdam.

The Hans Brinker Budget Hotel has been proudly disappointing travellers for forty years. Boasting levels of comfort comparable to a minimum-security prison, the Hans Brinker also offers some plumbing and an intermittently open canteen serving a wide range of dishes based on runny eggs.

Other Hans Brinker Budget Hotel, Amsterdam services and amenities include:
– A basement bar with limited light and no fresh air.

– A concrete courtyard where you can relax and enjoy whatever sunshine is able to pass the high buildings on either side on the extremely infrequent days when it’s actually sunny.
– An elevator that almost never breaks down between floors.
– A bar serving slightly watered down beer.
– Amusing witticisms and speculations about former guests’ sexual preferences scrawled on most surfaces.
– The Hans Brinker Budget Hotel, Amsterdam Luxury Ambassadorial Suite (featuring the Hans Brinker’s one and only bath-tub).
– Doors that lock.

We will be in rooms of 6 in Amsterdam. It is hot and humid and stinky. The windows don’t open and the hallway smells like skunk. But the most fun you will find on the trip. Just make sure your towel isn’t the one that soaks up the shower water spillage that leaks into the hallway.

Paris

Mary’s Hotel

http://marys-paris-hotel.com/

I picked this hotel because it is close to Oberkampf Avenue. It is the artist district of Paris. It is just south of the Republique station, and walking distance to many clubs and restaurants close to the Marais. You will find that this section of town is actually where younger people are moving to in Paris. 


My favorite section of the city is up in the Montmartre area, but it is so far north of the river that we spend too much time traveling back to our hotel. Mary’s hotel is a close enough subway trip, that you will always be close to home. 

HOTEL AMENITIES

  • Drinks vending machine
