After Paris and Amsterdam, I'd suggest Rome, London or Prague. If its London or Rome, I don't think you'd have time for anywhere else, but Prague is compact enough that you can get by with only 3 nights there and then fit in another 3 nights in either Berlin (if you're into WWII/Cold War history) or Budapest.

Amsterdam is a pretty cool place and I am not sure that I have ever met nicer people. I found it to be a very friendly place.
I went there as an after thought and avoided it in the past because of the image associated with it, but I would defintely go back and spend more time. You can also get relatively cheap flights there and their airport is very easy to find your way around. Even if you just have a layover for a few hours, there is a regular train that takes you right from the airport to downtown. Just ask any kid on the train platform to help you find the right one... people there are seriously that nice.
