The hotel will also feature a dedicated banqueting and conference area with flexible rooms which can be individually adapted to suit any event.
"Amsterdam is one of Europe's most attractive tourist destinations", said Puneet Chhatwal, CEO of Steigenberger Hotels AG. "The fact that the city is a leading player in the lucrative business travel sector makes it an important core market for the hotel industry. By opening a second Steigenberger Hotel Group establishment at this location, we are continuing to expand our brand presence and carrying forward our aim for international expansion", stresses Area General Manager Netherlands Erwin M. Bruyn.
The 'Zuidoost' quarter of Amsterdam is an upcoming commercial and entertainment district.
