Paris - Accommodation
Although Paris is expensive in many ways, it has a good choice of cheap, decent hotels, when compared to other European cities. We have divided the hotels into three categories: sleep cheap for those costing up to 25 dollars a night for a single, mid range for those costing about twice as much as that, and first class for the rest. In the expensive category we have tried only to mention those who are actually worth that extra amount of money.

Amsterdam - Accommodation
Amsterdam has a large variety of hotels. From the luxurious Amstel Hotel to the small boat hotels to the run down places in the red light district.

Try to book a place before you arrive because it can be very hard to find place during the summer and during most other seasons also.
We have put the places to stay in four categories. Probably the cheapest way to stay in Amsterdam is camping, but this obviously not for all. The
