ACCOMODATION
You can either decide to book an hotel in Noordwijk or in Leiden. The former is close to the sea and quiet, while the latter offers more opportunities for eating or touristic attractions. Noordwijk is closer to ESTEC than Leiden, but in both cases it is easy to reach ESTEC. From Noordwijk, you can reach ESTEC either with public transportation (9292.nl) or with the ESA hotel shuttle (shuttle info). From Leiden, you can use the bus 30/31 from the station of Leiden Centraal (9292.nl).
ESA has price arrangements with some hotels in Noordwijk and Leiden, that are listed here. If you are interested in booking these hotels with ESA rates, please contact directly the ESTEC travel office (email: estec.traveloffice@atpi.com) to reserve a room. Kindly note these rates are only available when booked via ATPi. For the booking of a hotel room via ATPi a booking fee will be applied.
