Travel to hotel Casa (conference venue)

The hotel is easily accessible by train as it is located only a stone’s throw away from Amsterdam Amstel Station. It can be easily reached by train/metro from Amsterdam Central Station or the Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.

Train tickets can be purchased from the NS train tickets machines at train station (main hall airport), (with coins or ATM/Credit cards). It is possible to buy travel passes for unlimited travel with trains, buses, trams and metros over a certain period.

Note that the difference between first and second class travel in trains is negligible, although first class could be more comfortable during rush hour, when trains tend to be overcrowded.

Alternatively, taxis are waiting outside the arrival hall of Schiphol airport and can bring you to Amsterdam in less than 25 minutes for about € 50- one way.
