A New Dimension of Luxury at Amsterdam’s Premier Airport

A Symphony of Chocolate Brands
The 75-square-meter Chocolate House is more than just a store; it’s a delightful escape into the world of chocolates. International chocolate sensations like Lindt, Leonidas, and Godiva make their sweet presence known along with renowned Dutch chocolatiers such as Visser Chocolate, De Bonte Koe, and MADAQ. The harmonious blend of global and local flavors ensures there’s something for every palate.
Pierre Hermé: A Touch of French Elegance
Breaking new ground, the store introduces the first-ever Pierre Hermé counter in the Netherlands. Shoppers can indulge in an exclusive range of the French pastry maestro’s iconic macarons and luxurious chocolates. Central to this enchanting atmosphere is a handcrafted chocolate windmill — a perfect homage to Dutch heritage and art.
As stated in Travel Wires, “We want every step through Lounge 1 to surprise and inspire,” shared Arthur Reijnhart, Chief Commercial Officer at Schiphol. “Chocolate House epitomizes our dedication to offering quality and singular experiences.”
A Transformative Experience
Every aspect of the Chocolate House is meticulously curated—from the dazzling windmill to the expertly trained staff, who have received exclusive training from Pierre Hermé’s celebrated Paris team. This attention to detail is meant to deliver an extraordinary and culturally enriched shopping escapade to all its visitants.
Beyond Chocolate: An Expansive Journey
The opening of Chocolate House is part of a larger transformation within Lounge 1, enhancing the space by an additional 5,000 square meters and now boasting 23 innovative retail and hospitality concepts. This monumental expansion underlines a strategic move to enrich the overall quality and range of experiences available to visitors at Schiphol Airport.
A Continued Commitment to Excellence
Earlier this year, Schiphol also celebrated the launch of Today Duty Free, the largest retail space under its joint operation with Lagardère. This aligns perfectly with the airport’s commitment to a comprehensive retail evolution, positioning itself as a leader in airport luxury shopping.
