PILLARS BAR & KITCHEN
The name refers not only to the four pillars in the lobby of the Marriott Hotel, where you’ll find this restaurant, but also to their four core values: to welcome, to gather, to collaborate and to chill! Pillars more than lives up to this promise. From a lovely spot to brunch away the morning to a bustling bar until late at night, Pillars knows how to make its guests feel welcome whatever the time of day. The menu mixes modern classics with local fare, and has something to please every palate.
HOTEL NOT HOTEL
Here, a room isn’t just a room, but an artwork with a story. With 36 rooms in all and each one a unique, characterful and colourful creation, this hotel – as the name implies – is not just any hotel. Developed in collaboration with local artists, this artistic accommodation is one guests will never tire of and that begs a sensational voyage of discovery. While you’re exploring, don’t forget to visit the hotel’s Mexican restaurant and cocktail bar, Jesús Malverde, with more bold interior styling on dazzling display.
KARMA CAFÉ X VEGAN PIZZA BAR
New on Hofplein is the colourful Karma Café: an eatery where the food tastes as good as it is good for you, right in the heart of Rotterdam Central District. There are menu options galore, thanks to a partnership with the Vegan Pizza Bar next door. It goes without saying that everything is vegan (even beverages)! Hungry for falafel?
