Golden Tulip Hospitality Group and Reco Productions initiate the development project through the signing of a letter of intent for the first Golden Tulip in Oegstgeest located next to CORPUS ‘a journey through the human body'.

Golden Tulip Hospitality Group is proud to announce the signing of a Letter of Intent (LOI) for the to-be-built Golden Tulip Corpus Oegstgeest.
