public interface StoriesRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository {}
<

As "pathfinder" mentioned you can use exchange method of RestTemplate. However instead of passing ParameterizedTypeReference>() you should pass ParameterizedTypeReference>(). When you get the response you could retrieve the content - Collection.

The code should look like this:

ResponseEntity> response = restTemplate.exchange(getLocalhost("/story"),
        HttpMethod.GET, null, new ParameterizedTypeReference>() {});
PagedResources storiesResources = response.getBody();
Collection stories = storiesResources.getContent();

Apart from the content storiesResources holds page metadata and links too.
