General Overview

The venue is a 4-star airport hotel offering a combination of business and leisure facilities. Meetings and events form a significant part of its operations, with 11 dedicated meeting rooms supporting corporate events, training programmes, and conferences for up to 150 delegates. The hotel is positioned to accommodate business travellers requiring efficient access to Schiphol Airport and the surrounding commercial areas.

Location

The venue is positioned in Badhoevedorp, within a quiet business/residential environment approximately 3 km from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. It sits away from main tourist zones and does not overlook major attractions, instead facing local commercial and residential buildings. Schiphol Airport can be reached by shuttle in approximately 10 minutes, depending on traffic, with services running every 30 minutes from early morning until late evening. The property is also accessible via local public transport, providing links to Amsterdam and the surrounding region.

On-site parking consists of 140 paid spaces managed by the hotel. Coach access is available for drop-off and pick-up at the entrance; long-stay parking is available 1.3 km away with complimentary bicycles for drivers.

Design

Externally, the hotel features contemporary architecture dominated by concrete and glass, typical of modern business-class airport properties. Internally, the design is modern and functional, with clear sightlines and well-organised public spaces supporting professional movement. Meeting rooms and public areas maintain a neutral, business-appropriate aesthetic. The single-floor meeting layout allows for discrete access and minimises guest overlap with leisure traffic. No decorative or promotional features indicate luxury positioning, and refurbishment notes were not provided.

Meeting Spaces

All 11 meeting rooms are located on one dedicated floor. The largest room accommodates 100 delegates in theatre style and is configured by combining Meeting Room 1 and Meeting Room 2. All remaining meeting spaces are on the same floor, supporting breakout sessions, workshops, and advisory boards. AV equipment is available across rooms, and some areas can be made exclusive depending on programme needs. The venue’s configuration suits training sessions, advisory boards, and small congress-style events due to its compact, functional layout.

Bedrooms

The venue comprises 222 bedrooms located across floors 1 through 6. Room categories include Standard, Executive (Superior/Deluxe), and Suites. Standard Rooms feature a work desk, laptop-sized safe, tea/coffee-making facilities, flat-screen TV, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Upgraded rooms include Espresso machines and bathrobes, which can be removed upon request. Mini-fridges are not present in Standard Rooms, and minibars (emptied) only feature in Junior Suites. The bedroom décor aligns with the modern, contemporary style of the wider hotel. No rooms are promoted as having notable tourist or panoramic views.

Restaurant and Public Spaces

The main restaurant, The Dam, located on the ground floor, provides international cuisine across breakfast, lunch, and dinner and has a capacity of 120 seats. It is available for full privatisation for confidential dinner meetings. The Damrak Lounge serves light snacks and beverages and is suitable for informal gatherings, though it cannot be made fully private; for confidentiality, a meeting room accommodating up to 60 seated guests is recommended. No additional restaurant outlets are available.

Experience

The hotel has hosted corporate healthcare meetings, including advisory boards and training events organised by life-science and healthcare companies. Capacities accommodated include small to mid-sized groups up to 150 delegates. Its location near major academic, healthcare, and business institutions in the Amsterdam area supports relevant programme delivery. The venue demonstrates familiarity with compliance considerations such as confidentiality, functional meeting layouts, and discreet public circulation.

Fitness

Fitness facilities are provided through a neighbouring 24/7 gym with free weights and exercise machines. These facilities are external to the hotel, not integrated within meeting areas, and therefore, the hotel is not marketed as a wellness or spa destination. Additional leisure facilities within the local area are not owned or managed by the hotel and are located approximately 1 km away.

The property is officially rated as a 4-star hotel and does not promote itself using luxury-associated language such as “luxury”, “spectacular”, “high-end”, “boutique”, “spa”, or “resort”.

Although the venue mentions proximity to Amsterdam’s museums and city centre, these are described factually and not promoted as incentives for meeting attendance.
