This first property under the Hilton Group's Motto banner and operated by Borealis Hotel Group is scheduled to open in 2022 in the Dutch city.

Following the success of the Motto brand in the Americas, Hilton is continuing to expand the brand in Europe with this upcoming opening in Rotterdam. The new 109-room lifestyle and design hotel will feature the hallmarks of the Motto brand, including flexible and interconnecting guest rooms, open social spaces designed for both work and play, and an innovative food and beverage offering with day and night service. The rooms are equipped with a well-designed work area and amenities, as well as an integrated technology package. Travellers will be able to choose, check in and unlock their room using their own mobile phones.

The hotel will be located in the city centre, just 1.4 km from Rotterdam Centraal station and 8 km from the airport. Travellers will have easy access to the main tourist attractions such as the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum, the Old Port, the Rotterdam Maritime Museum and the Cube Houses.  Rotterdam was chosen as the first European location because it is one of the most promising destinations in Europe due to its dynamic character.

"With its central location in the heart of the city's cultural and lifestyle hub, the Motto Rotterdam Blaak is well placed to capture international and national demand. The hotel is a perfect complement to our developments in Rotterdam, and further strengthens our position in the Netherlands. In addition, we are delighted to partner again with Hilton, with whom we have several hotels in Europe, to bring continental Europe's first Motto hotel to this great city and we look forward to welcoming our first guests next year," said Bart van de Kamp, CEO of Borealis Hotel Group.
