Business Travel
Amsterdam’s historical charm is just one facet of this dynamic modern city. The splendour of its waterside buildings blends with a sophisticated business environment, to create one of Europe’s most popular destinations.
Business at your pace
Business visitors can choose their pace – low-key meetings, or large scale conferences, drawing on the Dutch capital’s professional approach and excellent ICT services.
Its research base is enriched by globally oriented organisations such as the Amsterdam Science and Technology Centre, strengthening its international reputation as a thriving knowledge centre. But after the congress, Amsterdam also has a lot to offer…
Culinary delights
There are nearly 150 different types of cuisine represented, from sushi bars to a restaurant in a genuine Bedouin tent. So whether delegates are homesick for their own style of cooking, or feeling ready for a culinary adventure, there will be something to satisfy them. There are restaurants large enough to accommodate groups and banquets, and there are plenty of smaller establishments for those who want to get away from it all at the end of the day.
Accommodation
Cosy and intimate, elegantly classical or with a touch of historical grandeur; businesslike or on the contrary homely - Amsterdam has precisely the kind of hotel to suit your meeting or event. The number of stars will give you an idea of what to expect. But the general standard is high, so whatever you choose, you will be assured of professionalism and friendly staff.
Congress locations
Amsterdam has many unique venues. Give your event an added touch to ensure that people will never forget it by organising it at one of those unusual venues. A film theatre dating from 1920, a 15th-century chapel or a radar saloon boat, to mention but a few. Organise your meeting in an ancient canal-side building or celebrate your party between walls hung with the works of old masters. Most of these special venues are fully equipped for meetings; some are more suitable for social functions.
Easy to reach
The town is so compact that these locations can be quickly and easily reached, whether you have arrived at Amsterdam via Schiphol airport, by train or by car. You will always find a hotel and restaurants with state-of-the-art facilities close by.
