Never Have to Leave the Airport

Situated near Amsterdam’s New West ,  Corendon Amsterdam New-West, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel has 680 guest rooms and two decommissioned Boeing passenger planes. One is available for special events, while the other is attached to the one-of-a-kind 737 Suite .

An aviation lover’s dream, the 1291-square-foot suite has a king-sized bed, kitchen, living room, and a bathroom plus two half-baths. Overnighters can access the jet’s cockpit and first two rows to snoop inside compartments, push buttons, ignore “fasten your seatbelts” signs, and eat tasty room service food.

The hotel’s other stationary plane is a Boeing 747-400 — the former KLM aircraft called “City of Bangkok” — which first flew in 1989 and retired after 30 years of service. During daily tours at 10 a.m., visitors can sit in the cockpit and passenger seats and see where flight crews used to sleep.
