Amsterdam's latest hot spot is the new QO Hotel, a high-end travel option that was constructed from sustainable and recycled materials, including over 1,600 responsive aluminium panels that change to regulate temperatures.
The space was inspired by the closed-loop recycling idea, by adding an internal greywater system and an aquaponic rooftop greenhouse. With lush and comfortable interiors, each guestroom offers luxurious class to create a home away from home aesthetic. Set in the middle of the bustling city, the new hotel is filled with everything a guest could ever need for the perfect vacation.
Pairing exposed concrete ceilings with dark brick accents and bespoke furnishings, the new QO Hotel frames long and inspiring views over the edges of the city.
