Informacje o hotelu

In the historic town centre of Utrecht the new, prestigious Grand Hotel Karel V has opened its doors from September 1999. The realisation is the result of a striking renovation of the former headquarters of the German Knights Order. This block of buildings, locally known as the German house, dates from the fourteenth century.

It is the hospitable tradition of the German Knights Order which, in a modern equivalent, is pursued in Grand Hotel Karel V. The order was founded in 1198 with the purpose of defending the faith and of nursing the sick and wounded.

Grand Restaurant Karel V is a place in the grand manner yet familiar. The ideal location in the heart of Utrecht for a business or private occassion.

Brasserie Goeie Louisa is situated in the Brasserie room and the Brasserie kitchen, which is one of the oldest kitchens of the Netherlands. From 1345 AD the priests of the German Knights Order have cooked their meals for the many guests who stayed in the German House.

In the cellars, situated in the medieval arched roofs, you will find the Hotelbar, as well as a bar for closing your meeting or conference, the apéritif for your dinner in Grand Restaurant Karel V or the beginning of a nice evening in Utrecht.

Utrecht, a versatile city

The city of Utrecht verges on the Utrecht Hills, de Utrechtse Heuvelrug, where beautiful estates, country manors and castles can be found.

The well preserved medieval inner city of Utrecht, with its numerous courts of almshouses, intimate squares and populated canals, offers the visitor a varied palette of culture, leisure and nature. The city has a wealth of historical monuments. Quite outstanding is the more than six century old Dom tower. It is the highest church steeple of the Netherlands and, during certain hours, open to guided tours.

The multiple churches and monasteries, built in greatly different styles, remind the visitor of the strongly religious character of the city. Moreover, Utrecht is a city of museums, including the internationally renowned Netherlands Railway Museum, the national museum "Het Catha­rijne­convent", the Central Museum and the National Museum of Music Boxes and Barrel Organs.

The Utrecht visitors' centre for cultural history quickly helps the interested visitor on its way. Shops are located on the busy Oude Gracht--with its cosy outdoor cafés on the wharves and the typical basements--, on Oud Kerkhof, Steenweg and Hoog Catharijne. They are known for their excellent taste offering a wide range of products. Musical Centre Vredenburg and the Municipal Theatre provide high quality cultural entertainment and art. Another remarkable facet of Utrecht are the architecturally interesting buildings on Nieuwe Gracht.

Cosy canals, wharves and quays.

To many, the most important and cosiest attraction of Utrecht are the restaurants, studios and (outdoor) cafés along the canals. These can be found on the quays and wharves which were formerly utilised for making easy deliveries to the basements under the buildings along the canals. Today, these quays provide a daily gathering place to many visitors.

A summer canal boat tour of the canals will provide an unforgettable impression of this remarkable city.
