Courtyard By Marriot Amsterdam Airport Hotel

( 4 stars , Amsterdam , Netherlands )

The hotel is situated a bit far from Amsterdam city (it takes about 45 minutes in total to travel via public transport) but very near to the Schiphol airport. The location is good if you want to have a change from hustle bustle of a city location. Theres a huge lake at the backside and is very calm all around. For reaching the hotel, you can take a train to Schiphol airport and then either take a taxi (which are a big rip-off) or take the 300 number bus and get down at Overbos. Repeat for going to Amsterdam central. The hotel has good facilities and has a free shuttle service from airport to the hotel. It would have been great if they could have free shuttles to the airport too. All in all, a very good hotel to stay in.

Its rare that Ive paid so little for so much in Holland.

A nice well maintained hotel not very far from the airport. Rooms were nicely furnished & up-to-date. Good restaurants were something lacking.

Good airport location.

The room was very clean and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was good put a little pricy. Charging for internet connection in the business center is an insult.

The hotel was very nice. Only wish we were able to have spent more time there. We were just between flights on our way home to the US.

Not really close to the airport, and while it had a restaurant in the hotel, and 3 others right next door (2 of which were not open on Mon-Wed), the food options were not great, even with personal transportation. Without transportation, it was quite isolated. Shuttle bus ran every 20 min, but was only free from the airport to the hotel, and charged EUR 7.00 per person (EUR 6.00 pp for 3 or more) to return to the airport (EUR $30.00 for our family of 5 was way too expensive - they should charge by the room - we were all going the same place, and it felt like we were being taken advantage of, with the lack of options). Amenities were great, and we really enjoyed our stay, and were pleased with the room and hotel. We were a little disappointed with some of the peripheral options and charges.

The hotel was good. I even felt that the person on the other end of the line wasn't even listening to me. I had to ask him a couple of times "are you there?" And it took him a few seconds to respond. I found language but not communication with your customer's representative.

12.5 euros for parking and 7.00 euros for the shuttle plus 17.5 euros are a little bit too much, especially for seniors.

Unless you have you have a car, I would not recommend this hotel. Public transportation is not easily available. Shuttle transportation from hotel to airport to take the train is too expensive 7 Euros per person.
