Client Event in Amsterdam
Our client, operating in the media and advertising sector, wanted to hold their annual client event in Amsterdam this year. Attendees for this year’s meeting came from Israel, Germany and UK. Accommodation and transportation were required during their stay.
Since all their clients work in the media and advertising industry, they were looking for an artier and not too corporate hotel and venue. We wanted to give them an exclusive and very excellent experience in Amsterdam that fitted their needs.
The Hoxton
We found a unique hotel as a perfect base for their client event in Amsterdam: The Hoxton. The Hoxton is located in the city centre of Amsterdam, and when you look out of your window, you have the most stunning view over the famous canal, the ‘Herengracht’.
Once you enter this hotel, you immediately get a homey, warm and comfy feeling because you enter a cosy lounge instead of a standard check-in desk. This hotel fits the client perfectly because of the trendy, contemporary and extraordinary vibe.
As the guests arrived on a sunny Thursday morning in June, their private driver brought them to The Hoxton. A small welcome package awaited them at the front desk, which included a map of Amsterdam and the venues of their trip.
Since the group was only in Amsterdam for two days, we wanted to give them the best experience possible. We searched for a meeting room within walking distance so they could experience Amsterdam’s pride; our Canal Ring area.
During our venue search, we encountered the first public climate-neutral canal house in Amsterdam, The Conscious Club. Initially, it is a yoga studio with a conscious design yet one with a soul because of the number of antique items that answered the arty request of the client.
Client Event
The meeting room we selected for them is called The Green Temple and has a 18m2 plant wall. Fun fact: a study has shown that when a room is decorated with plants, 15% more ideas are generated.
The Green Temple is earthy, including self-made tables from 300-year-old oak floor boards from the famous Wester Tower. Additionally, we ordered some comfy couches to chill on, as this was a request from the client. This way, they could easily take a break from their meetings.
Canal Boat
Upon arrival, the guests were welcomed with a glass of Taittinger champagne and luxury canapés, including a sashimi of tuna, a crostini with carpaccio, a stuffed mini portobello and many more delicious bites. While enjoying their food and drinks, they discovered Amsterdam by water and headed to their dinner location.
The guests were dropped off at the private pier of The Harbour Club Zuid, where hosts were awaiting them with welcome drinks. The Harbour Club is a unique location in Amsterdam with an international allure and fantastic food.
Expect fresh fish daily and a high-quality assortment, and they only use high-quality and super-fresh products. The unique restaurant concept and the historic and beautiful location contributed to the requested exclusive experience. All good things come to an end, but we had a blast organizing this event.
