3-Month Serviced Apartment Rentals in Amsterdam
Mandy Thompson • Fri, Sep 1, 2023
Heading to Amsterdam for three months? Whether it's a work assignment, a corporate relocation, or a period between permanent homes, a 3-month serviced apartment in Amsterdam is almost always the most practical, stress-free solution. Here's why — and what to look for when choosing a provider.
Fully Furnished and Move-In Ready
A serviced apartment in Amsterdam comes fully equipped — from the bed and sofa to kitchen utensils, pots, and pans. There's no furniture shopping, no utility account setup, no waiting for a broadband engineer. You arrive, unpack, and you're home.
- Fully furnished living and bedroom
- Fully equipped kitchen
- High-speed Wi-Fi included
- Fresh linen and towels provided
- Washer-dryer, iron, vacuum cleaner
- Deep cleaned before arrival
All-inclusive pricing: Gas, electricity, water, Wi-Fi, linen, and maintenance are all covered in the monthly rate. The price you see is the price you pay — no hidden bills.
Genuine Flexibility — No Lock-In
Three months is a common starting point — but plans change. City Retreat's flexible tenancy agreements allow you to terminate at any time with just one calendar month's notice. There's no fixed end date and no penalty for extending.
This makes a 3-month rental the safest choice if you're unsure how long you'll actually need. Many tenants book with a 3-month start and stay considerably longer — and that's entirely fine.
Hotel Comfort, Apartment Privacy
Serviced apartments give you the best of both worlds. You have a fully private living space — your own kitchen, your own front door, your own schedule — combined with hotel-like services including housekeeping, fresh linen, maintenance cover, and a dedicated support team.
Unlike hotels, you can cook, work from home comfortably, and genuinely settle in rather than living out of a suitcase. Unlike private rentals, everything is handled — no landlord chasing, no contractor sourcing, no utility headaches.
BSN Registration and Expat Support
A key advantage of renting through City Retreat is that every tenancy comes with a formal Dutch residential lease agreement — which means you can register your address at the municipality and obtain your BSN (Burgerservicenummer) from day one.
Your BSN is essential for everything in the Netherlands: opening a bank account, registering with a GP, accessing healthcare, and receiving salary from a Dutch employer. Hotels and holiday rentals cannot provide a registerable address — serviced apartments can.

Corporate Bookings and Direct HR Invoicing
Relocating an employee to Amsterdam for a project, assignment, or permanent move? City Retreat works directly with HR and mobility teams, issuing invoices to companies and providing all documentation required for BRP address registration.
Properties range from one-bedroom apartments for solo professionals to four-bedroom homes for families. All are available on indefinite contracts with one month's notice, making them ideal for assignments where the end date is uncertain.
