Hilton Amsterdam, Five-star hotel at Apollolaan, Amsterdam-Zuid, Netherlands
Hilton Amsterdam is a five-star hotel featuring a V-shaped design with 271 rooms overlooking the Noorder Amstelkanaal. The diagonal patterned facade with rounded corners defines its appearance in the Amsterdam-Zuid neighborhood.
The building was designed by architects Hugh Maaskant and Frederik Willem de Vlaming and opened in 1963. It exemplifies reconstruction-period architecture that emerged after World War II.
The hotel's connection to a famous peace protest in 1969 makes it recognizable to visitors interested in that era's cultural movements. The building embodies a moment when artistic statements reached worldwide audiences.
The hotel offers extensive facilities including meeting spaces and parking for guests. Rooms with canal views are especially sought after, so early booking is advisable.
Inside, the hotel features a central atrium topped by a 42-meter high glass ceiling that floods the indoor gardens and white railings with natural light. This design creates an unexpected green space within the urban setting.
