thanks for the reply.....that page doesn't help me much. This is because it doesn't give me an idea about the general surroundings of the area....stuff like that is not listed on that website,,,,,so i need information from people that live there -> YOU guys!

i've narrowed my search down to 2 hotels:

1) Hotel Torenzicht (Oudezijds Achterburgwal 93)
2) Quentin Arrive Hotel (Haarlemmerstraat 65)

please tell me which one is in a safer /better area.....thanks!

Be nice Magik

Just pick either of them! The area is oke, Amsterdam isnt a criminal city UNLESS you are stupid yourself to leave your bag wide open etc etc. Just dont trust all the turks/maroccans/etc that offer shit and play nice.

1) On the edge of the Red Light District
2) Shopping street at the canals, west of central station

Hotel 1 is much more fun

Note: Amsterdam not being save or having no-go area's is bullshit. Only thing you should be aware of is put your money at a save place (front pocket pants/inside pocket jacket) and don't buy drugs on the street. The Red Light District is probably the savest place in Amsterdam, since police and mafia are controlling the area.
