Schiphol Airport has a high number of transfer passengers, with many transfers involving long overnight waiting times. Airlines no longer cover hotels as part of the ticket.
Also, a large number of flights depart very early in the morning. In both cases, ideally book a hotel close to the terminal.
Hotels in the terminal
In the passenger-only transit area (behind security) you will find the YOTELAIR Transit Hotel. The advantage is that you don't have to leave the airport building at all, the disadvantages are the mini-rooms (more like cubicles) and the high prices from 200 eur per night.
Hotels within walking distance
Within a 5-10 minute walk from the terminal, you will find classic premium hotels right on the airport grounds with prices between 190 eur and 230 eur per night in a 2-bed room.
- Sheraton 4* - 3 minutes walk from the terminal
- citizenM 4* - 5 minutes walk from the terminal
- Hilton 4* - 7 minutes walk from the terminal
