Behind a stunning Gothic façade in the heart of Maastricht, the family-owned Kruisherenhotel Maastricht is dedicated to making a positive impact on its environment and community. The hotel’s conscious journey starts from the beginning, when the Oostwegel family decided to maintain an original 15th-century monastery rather than start anew. Two decades later, Kruisherenhotel Maastricht is expanding into a neighboring early-20th-century structure and constructing a new building that will provide energy from sustainable sources to the historical spaces. Benefitting from the eco-conscious location of Maastricht, guests can easily arrive and explore by train, electric car-sharing, and bicycle. Products are sourced locally, including herbs grown in the hotel’s own garden and the house wine made at its sister property’s award-winning vineyard. As such, the hotel does not need to import 22,000 bottles of wine from France or Italy each year.
