About

We are a monumental, intimate, four-star Design Hotel™ nestled in Amsterdam's most beautiful park, Oosterpark! United by our love for art, design, music, travel, photography, and delectable cuisine, Hotel Arena is the place where people come together, inspire one another, and enrich their lives.

Our building, dating back to 1888, has transformed over the years from a Catholic girls' orphanage into what was known as "Arena" in 1992—a meeting place for young idealists, rockstars, and other free spirits. It has since evolved into a four-star Design Hotel. This is where conversations flow, where you listen, discover, recognize, revel, learn, and meet.

This is the place where Amsterdam connects with the rest of the world!

The monumental elements, such as the original marble staircase and the restored Chapel, have always been preserved, continuing to tell the captivating story of this venue's history every day. The rich history harmoniously blends with modern design, evident in our hotel rooms, bar-restaurant, creative meeting and event Studios, cozy Salon, and the unique Chapel. In one room, you may find a wild concert, in the Chapel, a fashion show, and in the Salon, a themed dinner that's anything but ordinary. Hotel Arena is the place where you eat, drink, work, sleep, and dance. We are the destination for your event, exhibition, meeting, concert, or simply an extraordinary night's stay in one of our iconic rooms. Everything under one roof.
