About us
A family business with a long-term vision.
Personal involvement
Highland Group is a family business that was established as Centre Hotels in 1998 by the Hoogland family. In 2007, the second generation, Jeffrey, Maxine and Steffan took over the reins of the business. In 2018, new life was breathed into the brand, when the new name, Highland Group was introduced. The siblings grew up in the heart of Amsterdam and have years of experience in the hotel and commercial real estate industries.
Our vision
Hotels with heart and property with personality
As a family business, Highland Group is aware of what personal involvement and a long-term vision can yield. We work on continuously improving the quality we offer and often join forces with residents, employers, employees, banks and local authorities to arrive at sustainable solutions together. Respect for the historical value of our buildings plays a major role in this. We feel that it is important for our city to retain its beauty in the future.
