Wifi

Amsterdam was wired for wifi early and aggressively — most cafés, restaurants, hotels and public spaces in the centre offer free guest networks as a baseline. This archive flags the Amsterdam Local Gems venues where wifi is reliable and freely available, useful when you’re juggling a longer working morning out of a café or planning a flight check-in from a hotel lobby. The city also runs a free network (KPN WiFi Free) accessible across many public hotspots — but the venues here have their own, and the individual listings note where the signal is strong, where a password is required, and where the room is set up to support a longer working session.
