- The Company continues to expand the portfolio of its upper-upscale brand with a new hotel in the Belgian capital, adding to the 67 that NH Hotel Group owns in thirteen countries around the world, including Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Italy, the Netherlands and Germany
- NH Collection Grand Sablon combines all the characteristics of NH Collection hotels: a strategic location in the heart of the city, the finest cuisine, tasteful decor by the best interior designers and impeccable customer service
- The opening of the Company's second upper-upscale hotel in Brussels coincides with the first anniversary of the brand's launch in the neighbouring country, the Netherlands where, one year ago, NH Hotel Group reopened three iconic hotels
NH Hotel Group has celebrated the opening of another hotel under its NH Collection brand, the NH Collection Grand Sablon in Brussels, the second of the Company's upper-upscale brand in the Belgian capital, adding to its 67 existing hotels around the world.
Located at the very heart of the city, NH Collection Grand Sablon is in the Sablon district, renowned for its many antique shops and art galleries. The hotel comprises 192 fully refurbished rooms, as well as 11 function rooms which can host 250 people.
The commitment of the Company's upper-upscale brand to haute cuisine is once again obvious in its second NH Collection hotel in the city. Those staying at NH Collection Grand Sablon or those who wish simply to enjoy the finest quality cuisine in Brussels can do so at Hispania Brasserie and at Hispania Gastronomique, the restaurant headed up by renowned chef, Marcos Morán (1 Michelin star). Visiting the brasserie or the restaurant will satisfy not only the most discerning palates but also those who like to enjoy lunch or dinner in an ambiance of inspired decor. The interior design of both establishments bears the signature of Lorenzo Castillo, the renowned Madrid interior decorator, for whom elegance and contemporary style have become his hallmarks.
With the opening of the Company's second hotel in Brussels under its upper-upscale brand, NH Hotel Group is continuing to consolidate a brand which only last year appeared in countries like the Netherlands and Germany and on a entire continent, as was the case in the Americas, as well as reopening flagship hotels in Rome, Madrid and Barcelona.
NH Collection Grand Sablon thus joins the NH Collection Brussels Centre which, located just a few steps from the Grand-Place, has 241 rooms, including 1 presidential suite, 5 suites, 8 junior suites, 44 Premium rooms and 183 superior rooms. NH Collection Brussels Centre also has 5 function rooms which can host 150 people.
The first anniversary of NH Collection's arrival in the Netherlands
The opening of NH Collection Grand Sablon, the second NH Collection hotel in Brussels, coincides with the first anniversary of the brand's arrival in its neighbouring country, the Netherlands.
Only one year ago, NH Hotel Group introduced its upper-upscale brand in the Netherlands, with the reopening of three iconic hotels in the Amsterdam city centre. NH Collection Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky, NH Collection Doelen and NH Collection Barbizon Palace, all of them five-star hotels, also perfectly exemplify what defines NH Collection hotels: the unique character of the buildings themselves, a central location, the highest quality cuisine and a level of customer service which seeks to exceed the expectations of even the most discerning guests.
The anniversary of NH Collection Barbizon Palace also coincided with the recent opening of its Vermeer restaurant, headed up by chef Chris Naylor (1 Michelin star) after an extensive renovation.
Feel the extraordinary
In NH Collection hotels, guests can enjoy some extraordinary Brilliant Basics, the elements which shape the basic proposal of the rooms in these reference hotels: exclusive NH Collection Sleep Better mattresses, a wide selection of pillows, exclusive amenities, rain-effect showers, professional hair dryers, as well as LED TVs and Nespresso machines with complete tea and coffee sets in all rooms.
The Guest Relations service and the Lazy Sundays concept, a service offering a late breakfast and the option to extend your check-out time if you need a late departure, are other services which characterise the 68 hotels that NH Hotel Group now has under this brand in thirteen countries around the world.
