The needed context seems to be that the person you are replying to is German. I don't love Schiphol either, but it beats any German airport (looking at Frankfurt in particular).
I like Heathrow when travelling to or from London. It's huge, but there's public transport to each terminal, a reasonable selection of restaurants and generally somewhere to sit. It's fairly quiet.
Changing between terminals at Heathrow is much less fun.

I decided to stay at a Heathrow airport hotel a while back. Turned out I had to change terminals and I'm pretty sure it took me at least as long as getting a shuttle bus to one of the hotels would have taken.
You often have to walk quite a ways too.
Overall though Heathrow is pretty good among the large European airports.
I actually kinda enjoy the distance between terminals. After a long international flight, I deliberately take the tunnel, and skip the moving walkways. As long as I'm not rushing to make a connection, the walk is really nice.
Copenhagen airport is my favourite too - note however that Arlanda T5 is being expanded at the moment and it seems like it will be a lot nicer when they're finished. The security stuff is already much better: no need to unpack laptops etc. from hand luggage when going through the new section. T2 is still quite sucky though!
