Introduction
The Hotel des Indes is
not just a place to stay, it is also a history lesson. It first opened
in 1856 as a townhouse for Baron van Brienen, private advisor to King
Willem III. After the Baron's death,in 1877, it was revamped as a hotel.
Guests since then include Bing Crosby, President Roosevelt and German
occupying troops in World War II who were unaware that people were hiding
from them under the roof. Today regular guests often book the same room,
thus adding their own personal history to the hotel.
Location
The Hotel des Indes is
located at the heart of the governmental and diplomatic districts. In
case you are not trying to schedule lunch with a prime minister, the hotel
is also surrounded by museums, theatres and prime shopping areas, and
is in walking distance to Central Station and near motorways to Amsterdam
and Rotterdam.
Bedrooms
Rooms and suites feature
24 hour room service, laundry, valet, radio, satellite TV, telephones
with personal voicemail dataports, a refreshment centre, a trouser press,
and in-room safe and a hair dryer.
Restaurants
Luxury dining is on tap at des Indes, via meals that helped earn the hotel
a five star rating. There is also a bar open from 10.00 until 1.00 and
a lounge, daily lunch and a High Tea.
Business Facilities
When
the Baron van Brienen first moved in, he needed a first class ballroom
for his activities. Now, that ballroom is used for official events, while
the Baron's former living quarters are available for receptions, luncheons
and dinners. There are also six banquet sites that can be combined in
many ways for seminars or meetings.
