Who needs Lisboa, Berlin or Barca when you can also go to Eindhoven? Admittedly, when we think of citytripping, we don't immediately think of Eindhoven, but why not? This city turns out to be fan-tas-tic and has everything you would expect from a lively weekend away. You just have to know it. And extra fun: because our brainport is all about innovation, sustainability is everywhere! Saskia spent a weekend in Eindhoven with her family. And on her phone was a sustainability programme made by locals. And that resulted in lots of cool experiences and thus tips. She shares all the sustainable hotspots with you!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Citytrip sustainable Eindhoven: this is the place to be<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In cooperation with Eindhoven 365<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you think of our city of lights, Eindhoven, you think of Brabant, Philips, PSV, Stratumseind, carnival, sausage rolls, the university and Dutch Design. During our city trip, we experienced Eindhoven to the max and discovered that this city has so much more to offer. It is green, it is a great city for cycling, the modern architecture and street art provide a worldly vibe, you can have great drinks and dinner and there is no shortage of cool second-hand shops either. I think Eindhoven is one of the most exciting city trip destinations of recent years. And all in its own country! Less than an hour and a half by train or car from Amsterdam. I take you to the nicest neighbourhoods and best addresses. Also fancy Eindhoven? This is the place to be!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sleeping in Eindhoven<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Let's start at the beginning: our base of operations, a sustainable place to stay. During our weekend getaway, we stayed at the amazing hotel The social hub<\/a>. This is a tall tower next to the central station where both hotel guests and students live. As a result, it has a unique atmosphere. You immediately feel at home and that is exactly the intention of this hotel. The Social Hub is a community for everyone and everyone can be whoever they want to be. And that feels good. On arrival, our bikes and two glasses of bubbly are already waiting for us and our family room is magnificent: mega spacious with two gigantic double beds facing each other and a great view over the city. This is another fine and comfortable start to the weekend. We are looking forward to it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
