- It was previously a place from which people desperately wanted to leave.
- As one of the Netherlands' most feared prisons for almost 150 years, Het Arresthuis was not a place you would want to stay.
- But following its closure and something of a makeover, people are now paying good money to spend a night at the former jail.

Despite the prison featuring lots of bars, this place has both kinds – the ones you can’t get past and the ones where you can get a drink.
After being abandoned for a number of years, the jail reopened in 2002. But in mid 2007 it closed permanently after which construction of the hotel began.
Het Arresthuis was also called 'bolletjesbajes' which translates as stuffer's prison.
Accommodation: Het Arresthuis opened its doors in 1862, as a prison. It closed down for good in 2007

Het Arresthuis is not the only former prison which has been transformed into a hotel.
After closing in 1996, Oxford Prison was transformed into a Malmaison hotel.
Another prison which is now a hotel is the Jailhotel Lowengraben in Lucerne
Built in 1862, it was used as a prison until 1998, before being converted into a hotel.
