Our Rooms
The Theo van Doesburg Apartment is named after the founder of the later international art movement De Stijl (1917). Before Hotel Central was built here in 1932, this location was home to Albert Janssen’s hospitality establishment. While stationed in Tilburg, Theo van Doesburg would meet here with friends to comment on the new 20th century, planting the seeds for what would become the De Stijl movement. Van Doesburg’s design for L’Aubette in Strasbourg, with its geometric and diagonal planes, forms the radiant centerpiece of the room named in his honor. A comfortable bed, a private bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a balcony for relaxation complete the experience.
The Nelly van Doesburg Apartment, located on the third floor of the historic Hotel Central in the heart of Tilburg, offers a unique and inspiring stay. This artist, associated with the De Stijl movement and the third wife of Theo van Doesburg, performed as a pianist under the name Pétro van Doesburg. Fittingly, one of the walls features printed sheet music of Marcia Muziale per un Coccodrillo by Vittorio Rieti, while a grand piano dangles playfully from strings. The bed is surrounded by a stunning crocodile-skin texture. The apartment includes a fully equipped private kitchen, a modern bathroom, a smart TV, and a lovely balcony.
Experience urban living in this modern apartment, inspired by the work of Tilburg railway clerk and, above all, poet Anthony Kok, a key figure in the De Stijl art movement and a close friend of Theo van Doesburg. This spacious suite at Hotel Central, in the heart of Tilburg, features wall prints of experimental poems and a striking image of a colossal locomotive hanging in the hoists of the Dutch Railways’ main workshop, once located in Tilburg. The apartment includes a private kitchen, bathroom, and smart TV, offering a comfortable and contemporary living experience.
Room 20 is named after Tilburg native Lena Milius, who served as the administrative memory of the De Stijl movement. As its administrator, she made the day-to-day running of the movement possible. This room is a tribute to Theo van Doesburg’s second wife, featuring an empty ledger, a small desk with a classic typewriter, and a love letter from Lena to Theo that intertwines her affection with her office work. The apartment includes a private kitchen, bathroom, and smart TV, offering a comfortable and contemporary living experience.
Room 21 - Bart van der Leck
In Room 21, you will find several replicas of small tiles with geometric shapes in primary colors, whose originals are part of the collection of the Kröller-Müller Museum. Van der Leck developed his own color scheme, using primarily the primary colors red, yellow, and blue, but also gray on a white background.
By omitting certain elements from his originally realistic works, he created the beginnings of a recognizable abstraction. Room 21 is a bright, airy space decorated in the characteristic colors of De Stijl. The apartment features its own kitchen, bathroom, and smart TV, offering a comfortable and contemporary living experience.
