Citizenm Schiphol Airport Hotel

The wave of the future

More hotels in the future will likely look like CitizenM: highly automated, very modular, rather podlike. The limited staff resulted in a fair amount of guest self service at checkin and room operation. The iPad that controlled the room would likely require a learning curve for non-iPad users, but it did its job. But the room was very small (<100 square feet?); it was tiny for just me; I can't imagine sharing it with anyone. Staff was uniformly great (as is usual in The Netherlands) and the lobby, while a little hip for this septuagenarian, was convenient and did its job. The 24-hour food service was especially welcome. Especially because of the location, I would stay there again. But not pay more.

Way small room. I felt warehoused, a la Bladerunner. Darkness and several housekeeping carts detracted from the highly decorated hallways.

I love the iPad-centric room controls. Great selection of newly released movies. Comfortable bed with a great TV setup.

Temperature controls don't work very well - the room gets very cold at night even though I set the temperature to 70 Fahrenheit. The toilet and shower design are fun and just fine for a single traveler. When traveling with a partner, there "tube" designs dont provide any privacy, especially for the toilet. Perhaps adding a fan or some ambient noise to drown out toilet noises could help keep the mood romantic, hahaha!

Rooms were are small with little bath and shower p

Bed was very comfortable. Very avant-garde. Mood lights, TV, everything can be controlled by the in room iPad. Bar and areas downstairs provide all kinds of environments for different people and activities. Buffet was good and reasonable.

Charging 3 euro to use a major credit card.

We had a great stay

We spent a night here in transit between Brussels and Den Haag. Walking distance from Schiphol Plaza. Self check-in and check-out feature was very convenient. Room decor was modern. All room light/tv/blinds were controlled with an ipad. WiFi was great. TV had a good selection of channels (for us- we watched comedy central). We got to store our luggage for a few hours after checking out which was extremely convenient. Hotel manager was excellent.

There was a leak with our shower, which actually made it unclear how the thing worked! So we wasted almost an hour in the morning. The hotel manager was EXTREMELY helpful... wish we'd asked him for assistance immediately!

Great stay!

Clean comfy room, great common areas, makes you feel at home. Will definitely stay here again. 5 minute walk to the airport, no need for taxi or shuttle

At AMS airport - a short covered walk away - very

Free TV & Movies

Shower & Toilet in the room with transparent enclosure - not for the shy.
