Waldorf Astoria to enter The Netherlands
POSTED 18 Nov 2011 . BY Pete Hayman
Hilton Worldwide has confirmed that it will open its first Waldorf Astoria-branded property in The Netherlands, after securing a new agreement with Dijkhuis Vastgoed Management.

Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam will launch in 2013 and will see six historic buildings alongside the Herengracht canal combined in order to house the 94-bedroom hotel.

Facilities will include a 500sq m (5,382sq ft) health club and spa, in addition to a number of dining experiences and 400sq m (4,306sq ft) of conference and meeting space.

John Vanderslice, global head of luxury and lifestyle brands at Hilton Worldwide, said: "The Waldorf Astoria Hotels and Resorts brand has become a touchstone for defining luxury experiences and its growth is one of the strongest in its hospitality segment.

"Our hotels are destinations of elegant style and comfort, reflecting great design and architecture in thoughtful details and Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam will be an exquisite asset to our brand when it opens in 2013."
