Hampton Schiphol lands fifth, the top airport pick, because it gives breakfast away. Hilton lists free hot breakfast and covered parking at €25.00 (about US$30) a day in Hoofddorp, about 4.7 road miles from Schiphol — but about 16.4 road miles from PTA by our routing, roughly 28 minutes on empty roads.
It ties on points with four city hotels and goes first on that breakfast. The distance is the price you pay for it.
There's no shuttle of any kind: Hilton lists the airport shuttle as not available. Landing late, that's a taxi to the door, and on sail morning another one to the ship.
Book it if you land late and want breakfast before a taxi to the port. Check out by 11 am, not noon.
