Hotelschool is an option, but.... the t and the g are keyboard neighbours, and "Hogeschool" means college/uni.... I'd check with the client if I were you :)

Dutch term (edited): Hoteschool
Selected

Hotel School

It is a typo: "Hotelschool"

"Een hotelschool is een onderwijsinstelling waar jongeren opgeleid worden voor een functie in het hotelwezen of aanverwante sectoren. De meeste hotelscholen bieden daarom ook meerdere studierichtingen aan, zoals
hotel(-beheer)
keuken/restaurant
slagerij- en vleeswarenbereiding,
traiteur
brood- en banket, confiserie
grootkeuken, catering
toerisme
Aangezien de opleidingen een behoorlijke infrastructuur vereisen, worden in deze scholen ook nog vaak avondcursussen of bijscholingen georganiseerd, dikwijls in het kader van het volwassenenonderwijs, maar ook voor privé-onderwijs."

agree Tina Vonhof (X) : But the asker may need the explanation in English. In North America it would be the equivalent of a Bachelor's of Commerce with a specialization in the hospitality industry.

On second thoughts, I would rephrase the sentence provided as context as: "I was a graduate of hospitality management...", presuming the person is a graduate of third-level education (e.g. BA, etc.).

Hotel Management School

Assuming that 'hoteschool' is indeed a typo for 'hotelschool'. See for instance the English version of the website of the 'Hoge Hotelschool Maastricht'.

Maastricht Hotel Management School is a bachelor degree course in hospitality management. Moreover, Maastricht Hotel Management School offers two master's degree courses. On graduation, you can embark on a career as a manager or consultant with hospitality and service organizations such as hotels, restaurants, catering companies, and congress and conference centers.
