Are you looking for 2 rooms in a hotel or an apartment with 2 bedrooms?
Regardless, here is one thread with some ideas that you may want to look through:

And the hotel/restaurant reviews forum for the Netherlands might have some ideas as well:

If this is for 2025, you will be competing for rooms with travelers in for Easter holiday, tulip season, and maybe King's day, depending on your dates.
We stayed in Haarlem, which also has charming canals and windmills, fewer bikes, and takes 15-20 min by train into central Amsterdam.
Another great alternative is Leiden. Both Leiden and Haarlem should be much cheaper, altho you are a bit late to be booking lodging during tulip season. Good luck, and enjoy the area! We sure did this last spring.
Safe travels!

Hotel prices in Amsterdam are very date dependent. April is one of the busiest months in Amsterdam and hotel rates skyrocket. If you happen to be here during the Easter holidays, your budget is not realistic for a nice 2 bedroom apartment that sleeps 4 people.
Also there are no hidden or secret hotels. If you’ve already checked booking.com and found nothing you like within your budget, I’m afraid we can’t help you either.
If you’re here to see the tulips, you can look into staying in Leiden or Haarlem. However even in these cities nice hotels won’t be much cheaper in April.
