The first building is the castle, which holds the meeting and event space, and the buffet/breakfast restaurant ‘de Kruidentuin’ and castle reception. The two other buildings are bedroom wings, connected via a glass bridge, in which all 130 double hotel rooms are located as well as our bistro and restaurant and hotel reception.

The design style of hotel (three floors high) is modern contemporary with modest shades of blue and grey. The castle presents a balance of classical historic rooms and modern contemporary.

The hotel reception is in the middle building (the first hotel wing) with 50 bedrooms, hotel lounge, ‘in de oude watermolen’ restaurant and bistro with terrace overlooking the lake. The restaurant has two semi-private areas, which can be rented exclusively for groups up to 40 persons each per area.

Meeting Space:

The ‘castle’ is located separate from the hotel wings at 300 meters walking distance and holds 20 naturally lit meeting rooms located across three different floors.

Restaurant:

The buffet/breakfast restaurant ‘de Kruidentuin’ is located on the ground floor of the castle. All other meeting/break-out rooms are located on the first and second floor of the castle. When privacy is needed for dinner to discuss private information, we can offer private dining instead of a dinner in the restaurant.

Experience:

The hotel is aware of the healthcare sector requirements and supports healthcare-related meetings, such as advisory boards, investigator meetings, and product trainings. In the surroundings of the hotel multiple healthcare and life science-related businesses and hospitals book the venue for internal/external meetings/trainings but also congresses.

The hotel is officially 4-star however, some marketing messages from the hotel is at higher-end level for attracting for leisure and individual guests. There are no hotel rooms located in the castle, the hotel rooms are in separate buildings on our premises.

The Spa and wellness centre is located at the rear end of the wing on the ground floor and away from meeting rooms. Treatments are not included and need to be booked/paid for separately.
