Hotel New York & Kop van Zuid
Hotel New York
A hotel in the former head office of the Holland America Line, set in the Kop van Zuid district, where high-rises earned it the nickname “Manhattan on the Maas”.
Hotel New York was once the headquarters of the Holland America Line. Between the 19th and 20th centuries, large numbers of European emigrants boarded ships here bound for New York. The building has since been converted into a hotel and restaurants, and its green copper-roofed twin towers are instantly recognisable. The surrounding Kop van Zuid district is home to skyscrapers, including Rem Koolhaas’s The Rotterdam, which has earned it the nickname “Manhattan on the Maas”. You can reach the old harbour area by water taxi.
