Opposite Amsterdam Central Station, the NH Collection Amsterdam Barbizon Palace hotel is right in the center of Amsterdam. The building itself is a highlight too, with beautiful architecture, and 268 bedrooms spread across over 19 buildings from the 17th-century houses. Our five-star hotel has all possible facilities under one roof. A real showpiece is our fine dining restaurant, Vermeer. It’s one of 2 places you can dine, plus there’s our exquisite Bottles & Jars Bar in addition to various meeting and event facilities such as the monumental 15th-century chapel Olofskapel. We see ourselves as a real learning company with a passionate team, who is happy to pass on their knowledge of hospitality and sense of luxury to new colleagues. We are always looking for colleagues who want to be part of our family and are ready for a “new” beginning at the “oldest” location in Amsterdam!
