12 beautiful (layover) hours next Sunday in Amsterdam... tips please

June 23, 2017 11:57 AM

My wife and I will be returning from a Norway cruise and docking in Amsterdam next Sunday at 7am. Our plane leaves that night at 7pm out of Schiphol. We both have small backpacks and roller bags. Important Q: Where can we stash our stuff for the day so we can enjoy the city?

We are somewhat familiar with Amsterdam having spent time there before. Lugging around all the luggage seems a bit daunting. Can we rent space in a hotel just for the day? Other locker options? TIA

Amsterdam Central Station and Schiphol both have luggage lockers for a fee. My friend used the ones at Amsterdam CS earlier this year with zero problems. Payment is via debit or credit card (check what network your debit card is on, but it should be fine).

Centraal Station is your best bet. There's also a private Drop'n Go place across from the station, next to Cafe Batavia
