THE ALBUS HOTEL GETS ITS FOURTH STAR

Amsterdam, May 3d, 2010

The Albus Hotel, at de Vijzelstraat in the very heart of Amsterdam, has been selected by the 'Nederlandse Hotel Classificatie' (Dutch Hotel Classification) as a 4 star Hotel. Before, the hotel had 3 stars.

To candidate for the 4 star rating, a hotel has to meet all 4 star regulations and requirements. Apart from that, a minimum of 73 points has to be earned regarding 4 star requirements.  The Albus Hotel got even 92 of these; way over par!!

Becoming a 4 star hotel was celebrated within the hotel organization, with bubbles and speeches. The plate with the indication of a 4 star hotel was proudly placed at the entrance of the hotel.

General Manager Taco van der Meer of the Albus Hotel showed great pride in obtaining the fourth star.

"This means a lot to us. We all worked hard to achieve this. For instance, we now offer room service from 07.00-23.00 hours and every room is equipped with a laptop safe and charger. The official acknowledgement to be a 4 star hotel confirms our goal to offer top service. Add to that, the fact that our staff are more than 100% committed to please the guest, and you will find that our underline ´ the pearl of Amsterdam' is very valid.  Soon our hotel will be officially re-opened after total refurbishment.  The many reservations we receive prove that there are high expectations", says Van der Meer.
