Would you like to work in a five-star hotel in the city center of Utrecht, where there is plenty of room for personal development and where showing initiative is much appreciated?
A 14th-century monastery in the center of Utrecht. Grand Hotel Karel V was once home to medieval knights, priests and emperors. Today it is one of the city’s most surprising hideaways.
