Renaissance hotels are aimed at travellers who recognize they are on business travel, but who also want their hotel to provide a break from the routines of work and to proactively create enriching experiences for them.

Accommodations at the Renaissance Amsterdam Airport will be spacious and will offer high speed internet access, Marriott’s plush bedding and bath linens, a mini-bar, and flat-screen TV.

For dining and entertainment, the hotel will have a casual restaurant serving three meals daily, and a bar and lobby lounge. Twenty-hour room service will also be available.

Other amenities will include a business centre, a fully-equipped fitness centre and retail shops.

For social events and meetings, the hotel will have 10,820 square feet of meeting space including a 4,627-square foot meeting room that will be divisible into four sections and 6,193 square feet of additional space comprised of 12 meeting rooms in varying configurations.

The Marriott International portfolio in Amsterdam currently consists of the 148-room Courtyard by Marriott Amsterdam Airport, the 392-room Amsterdam Marriott and the 405-room Renaissance Amsterdam.
