VAN DER VALK HOTEL

Van der Valk Hotel Schiphol has many amenities for their guests. Below you can find some information. For more information, please check their website (www.hotelschiphol.nl).

Wellness and gym: the wellness centre is open between 10:00h and 22:00h  and the swimming pool between 07:00h (on Fridays from 09:00h) and 22:00h. It is possible to use infrared cabins, saunas, the Turkish steam bath or a sunbed in the wellness centre.

Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi is available for all guests. The password is ‘Hotel Schiphol’. 

HOUSE RULES

In order to keep our guests and the other guests in the hotel happy, we came up with a few rules we would like you to keep in mind:

  • Please respect other guests (non-dancers as well as dancers). If you can’t do this, we will have to ask you to leave the hotel.
  • Please don’t play any music near the reception.
  • The hotel has a 24-hour self-service supermarket with camera’s: You have to scan all the items yourself and pay with the credit card. There are about ten camera’s that are constantly monitored by hotel security. In case of theft, this screenshot of your photo is directly sent to the police for your arrest. Because the dancers respect each other, we are convinced that this part does not concern us.
  • Any food that has been bought outside of the hotel (KFC, Burger King etc.) has to be eaten outside of the hotel. Please don’t eat your food in the hotel (terrace) area.
  • Please keep your voices and any other noises down in the public areas of the hotel.
