Noodopvang Vlaardingen (Kethelweg)
The COA used the Campanile Hotel at Kethelweg 220 in Vlaardingen as a temporary emergency reception centre for up to 100 asylum seekers from November 2024, under an agreement limited to a maximum of one year. The roughly 100 residents were moved elsewhere in the region and the hotel stood empty from late October 2025, with the municipality confirming the closure of the reception. The arrangement had earlier drawn local political friction, with reports that the mayor had known about the plan months before it became public.

Asylum reception opens at Campanile Hotel
COA houses up to 100 asylum seekers at the Kethelweg hotel under a one-year-maximum agreement.

Cost
Dutch asylum reception is funded by central government through the COA. At an illustrative benchmark of about €184 per person per night for emergency reception (noodopvang), the 102 people recorded here on 13 August 2025 imply roughly €6.9m per year. This is an order-of-magnitude figure for context only, not a site-specific invoice — emergency reception typically runs around three times the cost of a regular centre.
