Top Leiden Hotel Reviews

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport

10/10 Excellent
"I frequently visit the Netherlands a beautiful country and I really enjoy the Schiphol area/airport train station as it’s a direct into Amsterdam central and other major cities. The Ibis hotel has a regular shuttle service to and from the airport which is fantastic the hotel is also within walking distance of the bus station to the city and there is McDonald’s restaurant in a lovely clean area. This was my second stay at the Ibis in the space of 10 months and I’m planning on my next visit in the spring of next year at the same hotel, it’s comfortable, serves well, busy and maybe a bit outdated but its budget friendly if you don’t mind staying out of the centre in a quieter area with good amenities at least it’s spacious."
