You may also buy e-tickets in advance via the internet (www.ns.nl/cs/Satellite/travellers) where you will also find the timetable. Travel time is 33 minutes.

To make your way from Utrecht Centraal Station to your hotel by public transport, please consult the hotel’s web site, or use the “9292 Journey Planner” (http://journeyplanner.9292.nl/) for a door-to-door journey plan within the Netherlands. Taxis are also available, but they are relatively expensive.

There is a convenient bus link between Utrecht Centraal Station and the Centraal Museum: Line 2 (named “Museumkwartier ringlijn”) leaves 4-5 times an hour from the bus station at the north side of the train station and takes about ten minutes (see www.gvu.nl/lijndetails.aspx).
