The acquisition follows shortly after the addition of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotelsundern.de\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fletcher Hotel-Restaurant Sundern-Sorpesee<\/a> and marks the second German acquisition in the space of a week.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.winespectator.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Restaurant Jondani receives the international Wine Spectator Award<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jondani.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Restaurant Jondani<\/a> has been honoured with a Best of Award of Excellence from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wine_spectator\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wine Spectator<\/a>, the leading international American wine magazine.

The new \u2018Buurthotel\u2019 initiative acts as a unifying force between hotels, local residents and the city council. By transforming closed-off tourist strongholds into vibrant meeting places, Buurthotel introduces \u2018co-tourism\u2019: a model in which tourist facilities create local value for both visitors and residents. During the \u2018Open Hotel Week\u2019 event, which started last weekend, Saturday June 27, words will be turned into action and participating Amsterdam hotels will open their doors to the neighbourhood. Residents can take part in unique workshops and learn from the expertise of hotel teams. Open Hotel Week runs from 27 June to 4 July 2026.

With this strategic move, owners Jeroen and Marleen Brouwer are responding decisively to a bankruptcy petition filed by one party, arising from a commercial dispute. The suspension of payments enables the financially sound Michelin-starred restaurant to resolve the situation once and for all and to continue operating as planned until the end of 2026.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/jeroen-brouwer-a767bb308\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jeroen Brouwer<\/a>: \u201cThis is a deliberate step forward. We have built something unique in Groningen-Hoogkerk and we are immensely proud of what we have achieved with Noor. For us, this procedure is not a sign of weakness, but rather of decisiveness. Together with our new financier, we aim to resolve the problem that has arisen, because nobody stands to gain from a bankruptcy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/chef.marleen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marleen Brouwer<\/a>: \u201cWe\u2019ll remain open until the end of 2026, exactly as we had planned. The best way to support us right now is simply to book a table and enjoy a superb, high-quality gourmet meal. Come and taste what we\u2019re passionate about and what we work so hard for. We\u2019ll announce our plans for 2027 at a later date.
