We were last at this property in 2018 - and very little has changed, which is a good thing.||As a Hilton Honors Diamond member, I was upgraded to the executive floor, with lounge access (evening happy hour and daytime drinks and snacks) and was able to benefit from the full buffet at the main restaurant for breakfast.||Rooms that can accommodate parties of 3 or more are most often premium rooms in Amsterdam. Some hotels have the proper setup for such, but rooms tend to be small to start with so they may not be all that comfortable. This is one of the reason why we booked this property as it had some more reasonably priced premium rooms vs staying in the city center. The room type selected was a family corner room and although I have seen larger family rooms, this one was still large enough to accommodate our party of 3, with our luggage.||From the train station / airport terminal entrance, the hotel is less than a 10 minutes walk through a covered walkway - and you can use luggage carts if you need to up to the entrance of the hotel - so lugging our suitcase around wasn't a major issue. Having quick access to the train station also means being at Amsterdam Central in about 15 minutes once on the train.||The soundproofing at the hotel is very good - as we were not distracted by aircraft movement at the airport, or other guests moving around the hotel.||The hotel has a modern look and feel and nothing required maintenance during our stay. The main bed was quite comfortable and temperature control was adequate. The bathroom size was reasonable and it featured the standard Hilton amenities.||This being a corner room, there is a bit of a curve where the sofabed is (which was needed during our stay). Because the room was not setup ahead of time, some of the furniture had not been moved around and while the room was spacious, furniture placement made it challenging to move around the sofabed area. We moved a large lounge chair to another spot in the room and that took care of it. Frankly, the chair should be removed ahead of time when the sofabed is to be used... ||The buffet breakfast was of good quality, with plenty of enticing options, and great friendly service from the waitstaff.||We did not make much use of the executive lounge as we were touring around the city around happy hour, and this lounge does not have a breakfast offering. It's nice and very spacious.||All in, this is a great option if an airport hotel with direct connection to the terminal is what you need. Yes, there are cheaper airport hotel options with a quick train or bus connection, but the price difference may not be worth the time.
