Kasteel Gemert Eindhoven, Curio Collection by Hilton, will be located in the town of Gemert, a short drive from Eindhoven city centre, and is expected to welcome guests in 2024.
Modern yet historic
The hotel will offer at least 56 upscale guestrooms designed to provide a modern aesthetic while reflecting the property’s historic character. Led by designer Piet Boon, the hotel’s interior will be renovated to offer contemporary accommodations and public spaces with authenticity and originality.
Featuring two restaurants and a bar, along with spa and wellness facilities including an indoor swimming pool, the castle hotel will be flanked by trees and the castle’s moat, where guests will be able to access a rowboat experience.
MICE provision
For meetings and events, Kasteel Gemert Eindhoven, Curio Collection by Hilton will offer both an indoor meeting room and a large outdoor event space.
Underground and outdoor parking means the hotel will also be well prepared to welcome both domestic and international guests looking to take advantage of the hotel’s proximity to key cities like Eindhoven, or explore parks and castles in the North Brabant province.
New market entries
David Heijligers, MD, development, France and Benelux, Hilton, said: “Hilton continues to develop its Curio Collection by Hilton portfolio across Europe, Middle East and Africa, now boasting more than 60 hotels trading or under development.
“With plans to enter seven new markets in the region within the next three years, more and more guests will be able to take advantage of the brand’s distinct character and authentic upscale offering.
