Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam
Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam sits on Paul van Vlissingenstraat in the Amstel business district, occupying a striking glass-and-steel tower that has become a recognizable part of the city's southeastern skyline. The hotel is built into the same complex as the Amstel Business Park and connects directly to Amstel station, which makes it a practical base for executives heading into meetings at the nearby RAI exhibition centre, the Zuidas financial district, or the offices clustered along the Amstel river. With close to five hundred rooms, several meeting suites, and a sizable atrium lobby, it is one of the largest conference hotels in the city and frequently hosts delegations attending RAI trade fairs like IBC and ISE. Most guests are here for work, often arriving on tight schedules between flights, board meetings, and dinners. That rhythm is exactly where a pre-booked private transfer earns its keep. Schiphol Airport lies 14 km west of the hotel, a 19-minute drive via the A10 ring road and the A4. Booking an AmstelCab Business, First, or Van class transfer means a suited chauffeur waiting at the porte-cochere, bottled water and chargers on board, and a fixed fare confirmed before you step out of the lobby. For early flights or back-to-back meeting days, that predictability matters more than a hailed taxi at the curb.
Your AmstelCab chauffeur will meet you at the covered drop-off driveway directly in front of the main entrance of Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam on Paul van Vlissingenstraat 24. The car will be parked in the porte-cochere closest to the revolving doors; the concierge desk inside the atrium lobby can radio us if you cannot spot the vehicle. For larger luggage or Van class bookings, the driver will step out to assist with loading. Your chauffeur will text 10 minutes before arrival and confirm pickup point.

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.
The neighborhood around the hotel
The Amstel business district sits in the southeastern corner of Amsterdam, anchored by Amstel station and the office towers of the Amstel Business Park. It is a working neighborhood rather than a tourist one: glass facades, the Mondriaan Tower next door, the Holiday Inn Express across the street, and easy walking access to Amstel station's tram, metro, and intercity rail lines. Tram 12 and metro lines 51, 53, and 54 all stop here, but for an airport run a private car is faster and avoids the luggage shuffle. Road access is straightforward compared to the canal belt: Paul van Vlissingenstraat feeds directly onto the Spaklerweg and from there onto the A10 ring, so there are no narrow one-way streets or bridge restrictions to negotiate. Schiphol-bound traffic moves cleanly outside the morning peak between 07:30 and 09:00.
Frequently asked questions
Does Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam have a dedicated taxi drop-off zone for departures?
Yes. Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam has a covered driveway directly in front of the main entrance on Paul van Vlissingenstraat where vehicles can pull in for loading and unloading. The zone fits Business sedans and Vans comfortably, and the concierge can assist with luggage. For early-morning departures, your AmstelCab chauffeur will park there and walk to the lobby to meet you.
How early should I leave Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam for an international flight from Schiphol?
For intercontinental flights, leave Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam roughly three hours before departure; for Schengen flights, two hours is usually enough. The drive itself is about 19 minutes via the A10 and A4, but Schiphol security queues vary. Weekday rush hour between 07:00 and 09:30 can add 15-20 minutes, so we recommend building a buffer if you have an 11:00 takeoff.
Can my AmstelCab driver wait if I'm running late checking out of Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam?
Yes. Every airport transfer from Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam includes 60 minutes of complimentary wait time at no extra charge. If checkout takes longer than expected, your chauffeur will stay parked at the porte-cochere and keep you updated via text. Beyond the included hour, waiting is billed in 15-minute increments at the standard hourly rate, which we confirm with you in advance.
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, so there is 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.

Business Class (Mercedes EQE, E-Class, BMW i5, 5-Series), Van Class (Mercedes V-Class, EQV), First Class (Mercedes EQS, S-Class, BMW i7) and Ultra (Mercedes-Maybach S-Class). Ultra has a fixed price between Amsterdam and Schiphol; other Maybach rides are arranged via WhatsApp.
