Thanks for the information. The Amsterdam package is a really good idea. Unfortunately we're only able to spend two nights in Amsterdam. Most of the Amsterdam and Rotterdam hotel websites that I've looked at have discounted rates at the end of their listings which also include special 2 and 3 day packages. We've already booked a 2 day package at the Best Western in Rotterdam which includes free access to several museums and a free dinner for two. I haven't had a chance to look more deeply into what's available in Amsterdam because I was away at a conference for 5 days. I'd like to stay at a smaller hotel in Amsterdam and several ziners have given me some good tips on hotels, so I'm sure I'll be able to come up with something as soon as I do a bit more research.
