Accommodation in the centre is in short supply and therefore expensive. The museums and art galleries all charge, with admission to the major ones costing £10 or more, and it's easy to spend £30 a head on dinner in a modest <I>eetcafé</I>. But there are ways to keep costs down and still eat well, see the sights and have a comfortable stay. For example, good b &b s (such as those we recommend, which need to be booked well in advance) are similarly priced to budget hotels but offer much better quality. And you can eat cheaply, but well, if you stick to Amsterdam's many ethnic restaurants and cafés. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/6249817/Amsterdam-on-a-budget-European-city-breaks-for-under-250.html"><H2> <A href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/picturegalleries/6247541/Amsterdams-highlights-an-insiders-guide-to-the-Dutch-capital.html">Amsterdam's highlights</A> </H2></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/6249817/Amsterdam-on-a-budget-European-city-breaks-for-under-250.html">(see <A href="http://www.jordaanweb.nl" target="_blank">www.jordaanweb.nl</A></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/6249817/Amsterdam-on-a-budget-European-city-breaks-for-under-250.html"><A href="http://www.hermitage.nl" target="_blank">www.hermitage</A></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/54ACEB31-9096-4D7C-95BA-8D7E5D8C6C4A/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
