Innovative Airport Hotel Opens in Amsterdam

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands

The Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol opened with the goal of shaking up the airport hotel scene. The state-of-the-art 433-room hotel replaces the previous Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, which opened in 1972. The landmark property was developed and is owned by Schiphol Real Estate.

Created by acclaimed Dutch architects Mecanoo, alongside British interior design company The Gallery HBA, Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has a distinct cubic design that features a nearly 140-foot-high glazed roof. Contemporary Dutch influence can also be found throughout the public space and guest rooms. Spanish artist Israel Páez has created a wide range of bespoke pieces for the hotel such as story-telling tile walls in the open kitchens and a series of Dutch landscape headboards for guest rooms.

“The new Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is all about challenging expectations and we look forward to giving guests a new type of airport hotel experience through our stylish design, unique F&B offerings and world-class service,” said Rob Palleschi, global head, full service brands, Hilton Worldwide.

The Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol showcases Hilton’s new lobby concept which brings together, in a single open-plan area, a series of “islands,” including a reception area, lounge and bar.

The hotel is also the largest conference hotel near Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, boasting 23 flexible meeting spaces, including a ballroom with a capacity of up to 640 attendees.

Dutch heritage provided the inspiration for the F&B concepts at the hotel. The Bowery restaurant features three live cooking stations and offers dishes made with fresh ingredients sourced from local suppliers and farmers. The Vine Room, seating up to 20 guests, serves as an intimate event space.

Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is also home to Hilton’s global spa concept, eforea spa, alongside a 24-hour fitness center—making the hotel a welcome retreat for all guests.
