A stay with nhow is anything but ordinary. Artsy hubs located in the trendiest neighbourhoods of each destination, nhow hotels are one of a kind, from the Rem Koolhas-designed landmarks of Amsterdam and Rotterdam, to Berlin’s first music hotel with its own recording studio and Gibson guitars on demand.
nhow celebrates 2025 with an invitation for free spirits to come together and dance their way across Europe, offering the ultimate way to move and dance around the world. A whole series of dance events and activities are lined up to get you moving and feel alive again. Welcome to the new “dance nhow, change now” era of nhow.

Dance For life
Dance is a universal form of self-expression, but also a sure-found way to improve your health. It’s good cardio and improves your strength, flexibility, balance and coordination. And it’s also good for your mind, a form of meditation as you lose yourself in the rhythm, release stress, activate those endorphins and reconnect with your inner self.
THIS.IS.EDEN Tour 2025
nhow is your stage to let loose with dance parties all across Europe. But don’t worry if it doesn’t come naturally to you – we’ve partnered with Dutch-based THIS.IS.EDEN to shed your inhibitions and unleash your inner artist, guiding you through movement and breathwork to the beats of hypnotic electro.
The tour kicked off at nhow Amsterdam RAI in July, before hitting nhow Frankfurt with dancing on clouds at the city’s highest rooftop bar. Most recently at nhow Rotterdam, with the most inspiring of waterfront settings as muse, we head next to nhow London on 19th September, a neighbourhood hangout popping with Brit punk street art and neon lighting. Located in the trendy east, generation-defining fabric is just down the road, as is Sadler’s Wells, where nhow guests can watch contemporary dance events and join open workshops with a special 15% off.
And even more dates are lined up, October at nhow Brussels, and the newly opened nhow Roma in November, so stay tuned…
Other Happenings – Marseille
Experience a unique way to move and dance in Marseille, where Le Corbusier industrial meets Mediterranean beach. It’s also the setting of southern France’s largest gathering of electro lovers.
The Delta Festival took over the sandy cove at Prado Beach in August, with over 200 DJs taking the multiple stages day and night as hundreds of thousands of revellers danced on the shore and in the surf.
nhow Marseille, which just happens to be down the road, was the ideal base camp for those wanting to attend multiple sets, with downtime in between back at the hotel, whether in the oceanfront pool (Mediterranean beach club style) or the spa with its natural spring, hammam, jacuzzi and solarium. With dance events and parties at the hotel’s waterfront bar as well, you now know where to stay next year!
Berlin
Over to Berlin, the world capital of techno, with a hedonistic underground scene where anything and everything goes. Born of the disaffected of the 90s that raged against the system then let loose when the Wall fell, Berlin’s techno scene is unrivalled in its intensity, and constant push of the envelope.
nhow Berlin is a proud ambassador of this countermovement, located in the old East just round the corner from legendary, non-stop Berghain. It hosts regular concerts and DJ nights organised by resident music mogul Dominik Trampf. And coming up 20 September, its cool riverfront terrace will be taken over by Spreeradio, with a sundowner party starting at 5:00 pm.
Milan
And now we head to where the beautiful people holiday, capital of fashion and all things chic – Milan. nhow Milan’s trendy rooftop by Purobeach (think Miami meets Bangkok) is the place to be starting September, and not just for the fabulous panorama. nhow has partnered with wellness brand Capsula to offer dancing yoga sessions. Exercise and mindfulness made fun will be followed by a relaxed brunch with kindred spirits.
Vertigo will also be the setting for DJ sets by the soulful Angelica d’Amore, a guest appearance by Claudio Cannizzaro from Radio 105, and the invitation-only Endless Summer party to round off the season – which promises to be spectacular.
Amsterdam
And finally, with what may be our most exciting line-up yet: Amsterdam. The setting? Uber-modern nhow Amsterdam RAI by Rem Koolhaas, redefining the city skyline, with 360° views as far as the eye can see. Friday nights on its rooftop (named Amsterdam’s best in 2024) heat up with DJ sets from music collective Boogie House, house with a touch of Latin and tribal synching perfectly with the rooftop’s Amazon jungle vibes.
There are also monthly salsa nights with Salsa Zuidas at Moana Bar – a kaleidoscope of colours with graphic Tiki/Mexican/Japanese art to inspire – open to all and free for guests, ideal for getting to know the locals.
Most exciting of all is the ADE dance festival, this year scheduled for 22 – 26 October. With 250+ house and techno artists, and half-a-million revellers descending on the city, we promise you’ll find your groove, with nightly sessions at the hotel to enjoy as well.
