History
Pillows Grand Boutique Hotel Maurits at the Park occupies the former dissection laboratory of the University of Amsterdam, a building designed by Jan Bernard Springer and dating to around 1905-1908, on the edge of the city's Oosterpark. Sold in 2014, it was transformed as part of the park's redevelopment into a five-star hotel by Office Winhov, with interiors by Studio Linse.
Construction ran from 2019 to 2022, and the hotel opened in 2022 with 88 rooms; in its debut year it topped TripAdvisor's ranking of Amsterdam hotels. Its soaring former laboratory halls lend the property a dramatic sense of scale, softened by understated Dutch-artisan interiors.
