This Station need a better maintenance specially now when the city in growing so much!!

We needed to come to the Centraal Station to catch a train to visit Zaanse Schans yesterday. You…read moretap in with your credit card (or a pass if you got one for lots of public transit in a week or month). In order to enter the station. The digital directory screen was very easy to follow once we looked online to see which train we needed. There are intercity trains and sprinter trains which are slower or quicker because of the number of stops I think. We needed the 11:13 train on platform 5a to Uitgeest. We were t hungry yet but if we had been, the station has multiple places to buy pastries or snacks for travel. We only had to wait on the platform for about 15 minutes. The seats were comfortable and had options for 2 together or 4 facing each other for families. The ride was very smooth with only 2 stops before ours. You tap out at the platform of arrival at a little tap screen about waist height there.

Unfortunately, they demolished a gorgeous old building, which is typical of the city of Ede. I have yet to discover if they have also installed new bathrooms, always necessary when traveling, as sometimes you take more than two or three hours to get to your destination within Holland -- even with its excellent public transportation. Fortunately these days the trains are better equipped. Selfishly I would love to see an improvement at the station level as well. Parking is easy but a good five minute walk away. And free.

Utrecht Centraal is seriously impressive. It's huge, modern, and surprisingly easy to navigate for…read morea station of this size. The architecture alone stands out: lots of glass and steel, tons of natural light, and a very open, airy feel. Even when it's busy (which it often is), it doesn't feel cramped or chaotic. Platforms are clearly numbered and well marked, and the electronic displays make it easy to see exactly what's coming next without stress. What I really appreciate is how practical everything is. There are shops, food options, and services everywhere, from sit-down restaurants to quick takeaway spots. Even better: each platform has its own small kiosk, so you don't have to hike back to the main hall just to grab a coffee, snack, newspaper, or last-minute essentials before boarding. It's also a major international hub -- you'll see plenty of intercity and international trains heading to destinations across the Netherlands and beyond, which makes transfers pretty smooth if you're changing trains. Overall, Utrecht Centraal manages to be massive, modern, and efficient all at once -- not an easy combination. Whether you're just passing through or starting your journey here, it's one of the best-designed and most user-friendly train stations in the country.

If you choose the right exit, then you are pretty much in the clear since it's close by to a huge indoor mall and a 10 minute walk to the old city.

Mind you, as I discovered, when a train is cancelled, you can still basically get to where you want to go, it is just somewhat more complicated. Anyway, this was the interchange station we used to get to Arnhem, and even if we were going straight to Amsterdam we still would have had to change trains here. It is a larger station and Venlo, and even had a Starbucks, not that I actually went inside and got anything, namely because even though we had time to catch out train, it wasn't all that long.

It's also in a good location in respect to the historic center of Nijmegen if you're coming on a day trip or visit. It's fairly clearly signed and walking distance to all the sights.

Fortunately there was a symbol on the pass to allow you to enter and leave these gates without having to hunt down somebody in authority that is willing to help you (especially since there wasn't anybody attending the gates). Mind you, I expected more from the Dutch, but such is life. Actually, I also got the same disinterest when I went to catch the train the next morning. On the other hand, this station did look like a space ship, which was pretty cool.

Bilthoven seems to be a fairly quiet village, part of the Utrecht municipality, and so it was a very small but busy railway station with only two platforms. I was there on a weekend, and the shop+cafe on the train station was closed. There were toilets, but they seemed to be locked. Entrance to the station was only thru one side, but there was a good number of turnstiles to enter/ exit. With only two platforms, it was easy to figure out which side your train was going to be coming on, so no complaints from my side on my experience using this train station! Yelp 60/ 2019
