Pillows Hotels conquers Belgian market!

Pillows Grand Hotel Place Rouppe, a luxury boutique hotel with all day dining service

After the successful start of this brand new hotel concept in The Netherlands, Pillows Hotels now opens the first Belgian Pillows hotel in our capital. Pillows Grand Hotel Place Rouppe welcomes quests in a unique hotel concept where luxury equals an overnight in a gorgeous hotel which operates as a large house where charm and cosiness form the perfect marriage.

Rogier Braakman, Managing Director International Hotel Management Group, explains: ""We want to give our guests a home away from home-feeling in a charming and luxurious atmosphere in the middle of the always busy Brussels."

The Pillows hotel Anna van den Vondel in Amsterdam is running at full speed and also in Zwolle, where Pillows Grand Hotel Ter Borch recently opened its doors, the concept is very successful. "Opening a Pillows hotel in Brussel fits perfectly in our strategy for growth. The coming years, we

want to put even more Pillows Hotels on the map across Europe" says Rogier Braakman. "More specifically, in 2018 and 2019 we forecast to open hotels with the Pillows label in Deventer and Ghent." Pillows Grand Hotel Place Rouppe The Pillows Grand Hotel Place Rouppe is located in a gorgeous renovated, neoclassical building on the famous, historical Place Rouppe just a stone's throw away from the bustling city centre of Brussels. The hotel has 43 unique rooms and luxury suites. Every hotel room looks like it's tailor made and feels very personal while all of them embody charm and comfort with a lot of light, the finest linen, ultra-comfortable beds and silence. Nikolaas de Boodt says: "Guests should unwind in their room and that's why we pay attention to every little detail. We've foreseen extra noise cancelling isolation, but for example also a reading lamp attached to the bed, a comfortable pillow and wonderful soft sheets."

The Living, Winebar & Lounge reflects the Pillows Grand Hotel place Rouppe philosophy to its core. A warm welcome and relaxation in the lounge and food and drinks in the Domestic Bar and Kitchen run seamlessly into each other. Hotel guests can enjoy around the clock a good glass of wine, a quick lunch or a local speciality.

Other specific services in the Pillows Grand Hotel Place Rouppe are The Salons. Small groups of 10-20 persons will be able to reserve them for Private Dining. In addition, they also serve as meeting facilities with high quality audio-visual equipment, such as a big TV screen with wireless connection, soundbar and connections for laptops.
