Real estate that connects, enriches and creates value.

WHD and European Hotel Capital (EUHC) share a clear vision: hotel real estate is about more than bricks and returns. We believe in an integrated approach where development and operations go hand in hand. Our unique collaboration allows us to get involved at every stage of the process, from planning and permit applications, from renovation to operation. We can handle any case involving hotels and real estate.

While hotel real estate is traditionally developed as a passive asset, we focus on a model in which the property and its operation are inextricably linked.

Together, we combine EUHC’s expertise in hotel investments and operations in line with WHD’s vision for property development. This creates future-proof hotel concepts that put accommodation, experience and connection at the heart of things. Hotels become more than just a place to stay: they become vibrant hubs of activity, creativity and economic interaction.

Featured projects

Two successful examples of the WHD–EUHC partnership:

• Mama Shelter Hotel – Amsterdam
  We’re transforming the existing building (a former warehouse) into a dynamic hotspot, with a creative mix of accommodation, food and drink, workspaces and events. Mama Shelter will become a destination where guests and locals come together. The entire planning process and permit issuance From renovation through to final operation, the entire process is carried out through our collaboration.
• Motto by Hilton – Rotterdam
  Following an extensive redevelopment and renovation, the Motto by Hilton, with 110 rooms on Botersloot in central Rotterdam, is now operated by EUHC.

Through the WHD-EUHC partnership, we bring hotel properties to life as social and economic catalysts. We integrate operations with design from the drawing board, ensuring each hotel fits into and contributes to its surroundings. The result is places that not only accommodate guests, but also redefine hospitality and support local talent, culture, community life and commerce. All while delivering healthy returns!
