The 105 prisoner’s quarters have been converted into 40 spacious rooms, including 24 standard rooms, 12 deluxe rooms, and four suites, all of which feature modern furnishings and chic interior design.
All of the rooms are equipped with air conditioning, a flat screen TV, free WiFi, and even a personal coffee and tea machine.
The hotel also features a sauna, fitness centre, central patio with olive trees, and an organic herb garden.
Het Arresthuis opened its doors in 1862 and quickly established a reputation as an intimidating jail.
Despite the prison featuring lots of bars, this place has both kinds – the ones you can’t get past and the ones where you can get a drink.
After being abandoned for a number of years, Het Arresthuis reopened in 2002. But in mid 2007 it closed permanently after which construction of the hotel began.
Het Arresthuis was also called “bolletjesbajes” which translates as stuffer’s prison.
Het Arresthuis in Roermond is not the only former prison which has been transformed into a hotel.
After closing in 1996, Oxford Prison in UK was transformed into a Malmaison hotel.
Another prison which is now a hotel is the Jailhotel Lowengraben in Lucerne, Switzerland.
Built in 1862, it was used as a prison until 1998, before being converted into a hotel.
