Sheraton Amsterdam Airport Hotel and Conference Center

Sheraton Amsterdam Airport Hotel and Conference Center

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice, clean and well appointed room. Comfy bed, and quiet. Very close to the departure gates and train station which was extremely convenient. Much closer than the other airport hotel. Only complaint is the service at restaurant was extremely slow, but food was good. We would for sure stay here again though, just would probably skip the restaurant."

Steigenberger Airport Hotel Amsterdam

Steigenberger Airport Hotel Amsterdam

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful facility, close to the airport with free shuttle that runs every half hour from 6am to 11:30 pm. When there were too many people for the shuttle to accommodate, they provided a private van! We used the shuttle to go back and forth to the airport train station to get into the city. Overall great place! Will stay again."
