A monumental Maastricht hotel from 1885 with a reputation for quality and innovation and a great location between the train station and the river Meuse. The hotel’s location means that a short stroll though the vicinity of the hotel will take you along the historic city centre and the beautiful architecture of the ‘Céramique’ area. The Hotel Beaumont fits perfectly in these surroundings. A mixture of traditional and modern interior styles forms the basis of the decoration in the rooms. Cream paint and fabrics together with sleek dark wood create a timeless atmosphere that excels in simplicity and class. In addition, the hotel management won a ‘Dutch Hotel Award’ in 2005 for its excellent service that has been built up by three generations of the Beaumont family.

The Beaumont offers all non-smoking accommodation both in the original hotel building and the building across the street, formerly an ice cream salon, added in 2003 and overseen by the renowned English architect David Chipperfield. For a healthy and energetic start of your day you can enjoy a breakfast which includes freshly squeezed juices, fruits and different kinds of bread. The restaurant itself is affiliated to ‘Maastricht Culinair’, an exclusive association of several renowned restaurants that strive to promote the title that Maastricht holds as a culinary city. The restaurant specializes Alsatian specialities and wines: it is worth booking your table in advance in order to ensure a seat. Finally, the hotel also offers meeting capacities up to 200 persons, an intimate summer terrace, a lounge with a fireplace, and a bar. A tourist tax of 4.50 per person per night is added to all guests.

The hotel is located in the Wyck district, known for its art and architecture, as well as its antiquarian bookshops and boutiques. From this district, one can take either the 13th century St Servatius Bridge or the brand-new, modern ‘High Bridge’ over the river Meuse to reach the old heart of the city.
