Holiday Inn Express AMSTERDAM - SCHIPHOL by IHG ★★★
"The hotel is easy to get to from Slipp Airport basically a three minute train ride from the airport to the station and then a 10 minute walk so location is very convenient. The hotel itself is basic as can be expected. Comfort and cleanliness in acceptable. The only issue is that you need to pay local tax when you arrive and they do not accept cash so for the sake of one euro also I was nearly sleeping rough"

"The hotel's location is incredibly convenient. It's about a 10 to 15-minute metro ride from Amsterdam Central Station to the hotel's metro stop, and then just a 5-minute walk to the hotel. If you're checking out and heading to the airport, it's only a 5-minute walk from the hotel to another nearby train station, and then just two stops directly to the airport. So, whether you're going to Dam Square or the airport, it's super easy!"
