Citiez opens in Amsterdam
Short stay hotel Citiez has opened its doors in the lively area of Nieuw-West, Amsterdam. The hotel, located adjacent to shopping area Osdorpplein, has been redeveloped by Kroonenberg Groep and Revotels BV, with D/DOCK responsible for the interior design and design and project management.
In the formulation of the Citiez concept in 2014, D/DOCK opted for a new approach: a hotel offering relatively small rooms with pillars such as functionality, comfort, urban, modern and a place where the guest with a subtle budget is comfortable in a homely ambiance. The hotel is a collection of metropolises, in which it is possible to stay in one of the big cities in the hotel.
“Combining functionality, comfort and design in a smaller area was our biggest challenge,” says Coen van Dijck, Managing Director at D/DOCK.
The hotel has a total of 71 rooms, ranging from a Cozy Queen and Smart Double to Urban Twin, City Triple and a Family Quad. Every room has a bathroom and a double bed. The luxury rooms also have a pantry and coffee corner, and to keep the rooms diverse, the sink is placed in the room.
The room features peaceful and natural materials that have a timeless and relaxing effect and serve as a basis for the styling around the 71 metropolises.
The allDayCafe is accessible from the Osdorpplein, and is an extension of the city square, where guests check-in, enjoy a great breakfast, or relax. The area is reminiscent of a living room, and creates an urban ambiance in a nod to the historic canal houses of the city.
Juean-Paul de Mol, owner of Citiez comments: “Citiez focuses on the modern traveller who does not care about a huge suite, a super expensive mini bar and a long line at the front desk. The traveller who loves a comfortable bed, a good, pleasant shower, free internet and moves, all at the perfect location in a city that offers no good reason to stay in your hotel room.”
