Townhouse Designhotel Maastricht is a four-star design hotel located in the Wyck district in Maastricht, Netherlands. The hotel opened in late 2009. Townhouse is part of the La Bergère Group.
Concept
[edit]The launch campaign of Townhouse Designhotel, which started in February 2009, was called ‘Stijl, Sex en Soep’ (Style, Sex and Soup). The ingredients in this campaign stood for: Style (design, architecture and art), Sex (the passion in daily life) and Soup (cuisine, authenticity and genuine.[1]
The elements of the launch campaign return in the concept of Townhouse by creating an atmosphere of a Maastricht living room. Elements from Maastricht are used in the entire hotel (including sanitary and tiles from Maastricht companies Mosa Tegels and Sphinx). This is complemented by design furniture including brands as Hästens and Artifort.
The concept was awarded the Best New Hotel Concept Award at the Venuez Hospitality & Style Award 2009 before the hotel was even opened.[2]
