Transit Tips for Schiphol (AMS)

Walkable Hotels

The Sheraton Amsterdam Airport is the most convenient, with its entrance directly inside the Schiphol Plaza train station hall. The Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is connected by a futuristic covered walkway (The Traverse) from the terminal, taking about 5-7 minutes to walk with luggage.

Airside Options

If you are in transit and do not want to clear immigration, look for airside hotels like YOTELAIR or Mercure Schiphol Terminal. These are strictly for passengers with onward flight tickets.

Train to City

The train station is directly underneath the terminal plaza. From any of these walking-distance hotels, you can be in Amsterdam Centraal Station in 15-20 minutes for a quick city visit during a long layover.

Airport Logistics & Tips

Why Stay Near AMS?

Schiphol is only 15 minutes from Amsterdam Centraal by train, so staying near the airport is strategic primarily for very early flights or layovers. The Sheraton allows you to roll out of bed and into the check-in line in 2 minutes. Transit passengers often choose the YOTELAIR (Airside) to sleep without entering the Netherlands.

Airside vs Landside

Make sure you book the right 'Mercure'. The Mercure Hotel Schiphol Terminal is AIRSIDE (Lounge 3) for transit passengers only. The Mercure Hotel Amsterdam West is completely different and requires a shuttle. If you leave the secure area, you cannot stay at the Airside Mercure or YOTELAIR.

Night Trains

The NS train runs 24/7. Between 01:00 and 05:00, it runs once an hour to Amsterdam Centraal, Utrecht, and Rotterdam. This makes staying in the city feasible even for relatively early flights, provided you catch the specific night train.

Tips

Schiphol Plaza (Landside) is a large shopping center with a supermarket (Albert Heijn) open until midnight—good for affordable snacks. If you stay at the Sheraton or Hilton, you are connected to this area indoors. For Airside passengers, the 'Holland Boulevard' between Lounge 2 and 3 has a small branch of the Rijksmuseum.
