The main hotel and spa, where the front desk, breakfast, spa, and gym are located, has 30 two-bedded rooms reserved for our EuroTour athletes traveling with their mom.  Out of these 30 rooms, 25 are now set for athletes and their mothers, while the remaining 5 rooms will accommodate 10 athletes, each sharing a room with another member athlete. These 10 athletes either have both parents on the trip or are accompanied by their single fathers.
Main Hotel: Room #'s 1-32

All of our programs will start in this main building and all of our group meetings will be held here as well.

Family members, coaches, and our staff will stay in the hotel’s "annex". The annex, a fairly new building separated by about 200 feet from the main facility, offers "superior" rooms with large individual beds (one bed per room). This annex has 39 rooms across three floors.  The hotel does not allow three to a room.
Annex: Room #'s 56-311

Currently, we will occupy all rooms in the main building, as well as the first two floors in the annex.

The hotel itself is in a peaceful area along the Amsterdam/Amstelveen border, next to open space that leads directly to our club facility—a very convenient and pleasant location!

Optional - Arrive Early or Depart Later:
If you’d like to arrive in Amsterdam early or extend your stay, you’re in good company! Several group members plan to stay later to participate in optional Dutch training on Wednesday July 30. We have rooms on hold for pre- and post-tour dates, and we’re awaiting the hotel’s instructions on how you can book these extra nights.

Please note that any additional nights will be booked directly with the hotel by each member, as the EuroTour office will not be handling pre- or post-arrival arrangements. Stay tuned for booking instructions!

11am AIRPORT TRANSFER 
The bus for those who would like transportation from the airport to the hotel will depart at 11:00 AM sharp. In the spring, we'll send out a questionnaire, where you can confirm if you'd like to join this transfer.

OFFICIAL PROGRAM START:

11.30AM Light Lunch | 12.30PM Welcome Meeting
Once at the hotel, we’ll kick off with a light lunch at 11:30 AM for all our arriving travelers. This is when our program officially begins, so come and get ready to meet everyone. Followed by a member welcome meeting at 12.30PM  

>> Please try your best to be at the hotel prior to 12.30pm

Room Access:
As with most hotels, room access typically begins between 3:00 and 4:00 PM. In previous years, we’ve found that some rooms do become available earlier, sometimes even by noon. All rooms are preassigned well in advance, so there will be a bit of “luck of the draw” in terms of which rooms are ready before we head out for our afternoon adventure.

For anyone wanting to freshen up before going out, the spa locker rooms will be available for changing and refreshing. We’ll hand out room keys as they become available, and for any remaining rooms, keys will be distributed after we return from dinner. Thank you for understanding—we’re here to make Day-1 as smooth as possible for everyone!

Now, Some Fun. Afternoon Sightseeing:
1:30 PM, we’ll board our bus again, this time for a sightseeing tour of the area. This first excursion is a fantastic way to get our bearings, take in some beautiful landmarks, and dive into the local culture. We’ll explore together, with plenty of time for photos and discovery.

If you’re running late or experience any travel delays, no worries! We’ll provide a few convenient meet-up spots and times so you can join us as soon as you’re able. And if meeting up in the afternoon doesn’t work out, you can reconnect with us at the hotel for our evening gathering.

By early evening, between 6:00 and 7:00 PM, we’ll head back to the hotel to freshen up, relax, or simply take a breather before our evening gathering.

Evening Group Meeting: Mandatory!
8:00 PM we’ll meet up again in the main hotel building for a group meeting where everyone can connect, ask questions, and get a preview of what lies ahead. This will be a relaxed and informal chance to unwind and get comfortable in our new surroundings.

9:00 to 9.30 PM we’ll wrap up so you can get a good night’s rest before training and our first full day together.

As always, while we aim to stick closely to this schedule, minor adjustments may be needed along the way. Life happens, and we’ll handle any issues that necessitate changes smoothly as they come up.  Be confident and know: This isn’t our first rodeo.
