“Warmly recommended for Amsterdam & other cities”
The A4 is a large hotel (large enough to act as a conference centre) near Schiphol Airport. There is a very regular and reliable (and free) bus shuttle between the airport and the hotel (roughly every 40 minutes). We've used it as a base to visit Amsterdam (bear in mind that Schiphol Airport also contains an excellent train and bus station) plus the nearby cities of Haarlem, the Hague, etc. We found that given the facilities, it works out cheaper to stay a the A4 and travel in than to use a hotel in the centre of Amsterdam. We've used the A4 four times now and never had any complaints. The A4 recently has been re-carpeted and cleaned up - we had no complaints before, but the facelift is nice. The hotel also now has free wi-fi. The downside to the hotel - if you are hypersensitive to noise, the planes and the nearby motorway might annoy you, but to be honest, you would have to be pretty fussy. I hate traffic and plane noise and neither has ever disturbed me (honestly!). The other downside is that the food at the hotel is pricey, if you choose to eat there. However, there is a petrol service station literally a couple of minutes' walk away that offers snacks and drinks, and also within two minutes' walk, there are fast food outlets plus several good restaurants in the nearby motorway service station (which simply involves crossing a car park and a minor road, not the motorway!).
“Airport Hotel Schipol”
For an airport hotel we were very pleased with our experience and the shuttle was very prompt running every 40 minutes. The hotel restaurant is very nice but also out the front door are fast food places as well as a steak restaurant. Five euros per 15 minutes is charged for use of the internet but I guess this is the standard in Europe.
“Would love to go back!”
We stayed at this hotel for a weekend stay. We loved the fact that the free shuttle to the airport could be used as muchas you liked. This was how we got into the city centre as the shuttle took you to the trains etc. The hotel itself was lovely and exceeded our expectations although we found the breakfast really expensive. It was lovely but they had no cheaper option which would have been nice. Would definatly go back again.
“Excellent Hotel For The Price Paid Even Taking Into Account Extra Costs Back To Amsterdam City”
Wonderful free shuttle bus from,to airport every 40 minutes. First one FROM AIRPORT is 06.20 hrs. Last one is 23.20 hrs. First one FROM HOTEL is 06.00 hrs. Last one is 23.20 hrs. Even though alongside busy A4 and airport flight path, no noise,we even slept with our patio door open. Beds very comfortable. Room modern,clean,large. Bathroom with separate shower cubicle + powerful hand held shower over bath. Nice large indoor swimming pool. Hotel pictures on web accurate. By car from airport (driving south) Turn off at Exit 4 (Alphen a d Rijn, Nieuw Vennep). Cross the A4 and turn back onto it, as though going back to Amsterdam. Take exit P,Den Ruygen Hoek, ie you drive past hotel on A4 (going south), then come off A4 at slip road and back onto A4 (now going north),just be prepared as could be confusing for UK drivers not used to driving in Europe. Did not eat in hotel due to heavy schedule, but evening meal prices seemed fair, breakfast expensive I thought. Within walking distance (in same complex) is Kentucky Fried Chicken, BBQ Grill, FEBO sandwich bar, and great Shell Garage selling best hot chocolate, coffee, cheap, plus good sandwich selection, also usual cold drinks etc. If you dont mind an airport hotel you wont go wrong with this one, but take into account extra costs of getting from airport into Amsterdam by train (15 minutes journey time), although this is cheap by UK standards and extremely reliable. I think 4* rating is correct.
“Good solid hotel - definite recommend”
We stayed here for only one night as we flew in from Prague late in the day and were leaving via train for Paris from Schipol the next morning - wanted something close to the airport. Their shuttle to the airport was very efficient (but be warned that you need to make a reservation to ensure a seat going from the hotel to the airport especially first thing in the morning). A little far from Amsterdam if you were going to spend much time in the city - for us anyway although you could do it by using their shuttle and one train to the city center. Definite recommend this hotel
“excellent rapport qualité / prix”
Un hôtel 4 étoiles de qualité. Une carte de restaurant riche et variée. Une chambre impeccable avec grand écran LCD, salle de bain avec douche séparée. La piscine intérieure chauffée. Le personnel est très souriant. C'est simple, j'y retourne demain.
“Good Airport Hotel”
Nice cetral rooms and facilities - 15 min transfer from airport by coach
“Hotel A4”
Excellent hotel.Expensive but value for money. Free airport shuttle and easy acess to Amsterdam city makes it economical as a base. Compared to the cost of city centre hotels it does make sense to stay here even if you're there to do the Amsterdam tourist tours. Styayed here frequently and the standard stays constant.
“Hotel Schiphol A4”
fantastict hotel had room 312 nice big bed and 50" tv. did'nt have any thing to eat in hotel as the Motorway service station across the car park is really cheap 6 euros for breakfast. and 11 euros for all you can eat evening meal. Will be visiting this hotel again very soon. Only bad point is the free bus to/from the Airport running every 40 minutes. but then it is free
“Very Nice Hotel”
The only thing that sucks about this place is the last shuttle runs around 11 at night, so its basically impossible if you wanna stay out late.. unless you wanna spend all your money on a cab. The hotel is gorgeous though and has a very friendly staff. I would stay here again if it were closer to the city.
