Amsterdam Struggles With Tourism Surge

Amsterdam’s tourism boom shows no signs of slowing, with overnight stays hitting 23.7 million last year—way above their 20 million target. Locals are pushing back, even suing the city over lax enforcement, while officials blame global popularity and admit growth is now tempered by measures like fewer hotel rooms and a smoking ban. Day trips are up too, though still below pre-pandemic highs. Despite slower growth, officials warn they’re not where they need to be and are under pressure to curb visitor numbers, projecting continued—but slower—growth until 2028.
