See pricing & book →About DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station
DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station sits on Oosterdoksstraat, a few steps east of Amsterdam Centraal and directly behind the OBA Oosterdok public library. The 557-room hotel occupies a modern glass tower designed by Jan des Bouvrie, making it one of the largest Hilton properties in the Benelux and a familiar landmark for anyone arriving by train from Schiphol. It draws a mix of business travelers heading to Zuidas or the Houthavens, conference delegates at the nearby RAI, and layover guests who want walkable proximity to the station without staying inside the Red Light District. Rooms on the upper floors look out over the IJ harbour and the EYE Filmmuseum across the water, and the SkyLounge on the eleventh floor is a fixture on the Amsterdam cocktail circuit. For the airport run, the location is hard to beat: the IJtunnel entrance is essentially across the street, putting Schiphol roughly 19 km and 26 minutes away in normal traffic. Because the hotel handles a constant flow of executives and crew, the doormen are well practiced with private chauffeurs, which is why an AmstelCab Business or First-class transfer fits the rhythm of the building naturally. You step out under the porte-cochere, your suited driver greets you with bottled water and chargers ready, and you are on the A10 before most guests have finished checking out.

What's included in every transfer
No upgrades, no upsells. All of this comes with every Business, First Class and Van booking.
For arrivals at Schiphol: add your flight number when booking and we'll track your landing automatically — your chauffeur is in the arrivals hall with a name sign, ready for you. US-bound carriers (Delta, United, American) often face long passport-control queues; we recommend adding 40 minutes buffer time so your chauffeur waits exactly when you exit.
Pickup point at DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station
Your AmstelCab chauffeur will meet you under the covered porte-cochere at the main entrance of DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station on Oosterdoksstraat 4. The driveway loops in from the eastern side, just past the OBA library, and the hotel doormen will direct the car to the lobby doors. For early morning departures the driver can step inside the lobby and wait near the concierge desk. Your chauffeur will text 10 minutes before arrival and confirm pickup point, so you can finish coffee or check out without watching the clock.
Centraal Station (east) — the neighborhood around the hotel
Oosterdokseiland sits on a reclaimed peninsula immediately east of Centraal Station, bordered by the IJ on one side and the open water of the Oosterdok on the other. It is a deliberately modern district anchored by the Stedelijk Conservatorium, the OBA central library, and a cluster of corporate offices, which is why business guests gravitate here rather than to the canal belt. For airport transfers the area is genuinely efficient. Oosterdoksstraat is a wide two-way road that feeds directly into the IJtunnel, which connects to the S114 and onward to the A10 south ring. Drivers avoid the narrow canal streets and tram tracks of the old centre entirely. Tram 26 to IJburg passes the De Ruijterkade side of the station nearby, but for Schiphol-bound guests with luggage, a private car loading at the hotel curb remains the most predictable option.

Frequently asked questions about DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station transfers
Does DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station have a dedicated taxi drop-off zone?
Yes, the DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station has a covered driveway directly off Oosterdoksstraat that handles arrivals and departures. It sits a short distance from the main station traffic, so your AmstelCab driver can pull up close to the lobby doors without circling. During peak check-in hours the bellhops actively manage the curb, so we recommend coordinating with your chauffeur a minute before stepping outside.
How early should I leave the hotel for an international flight from Schiphol?
For intercontinental departures we suggest leaving DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station three hours before takeoff, and two hours for Schengen flights. The drive itself is around 26 minutes via the IJtunnel and A10 outside rush hour, but morning traffic between 07:00 and 09:00 can add 15-20 minutes. Schiphol security queues have also been longer than usual since 2024, so the buffer matters.
Can my driver wait inside the lobby if my meeting runs late?
Yes. AmstelCab includes 60 minutes of complimentary wait time on every airport transfer, and your suited chauffeur is welcome to wait in the DoubleTree lobby near the concierge desk. The hotel staff are used to private drivers and will point them to a seating area. If you are delayed beyond an hour, your driver will stay in touch by text so you can extend without stress.
How does the meet & greet work for arrivals?
Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall at Schiphol with a sign showing your name. There's 60 minutes of complimentary waiting time from the moment you land. If you add your flight number we track delays automatically — no need to message.
What is your cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 1 hour before pickup. Inside that window, we charge the full fare since the chauffeur is already en route. You can move the booking to a different time for free.
Which vehicle types are available?
Business Class (Mercedes EQE, E-Class, BMW i5, 5-Series), First Class (Mercedes EQS, S-Class, BMW i7), and Van Class (Mercedes V-Class, EQV). Maybach is available by WhatsApp request.
