Did urbanism and Mother Nature decide to join forces in the Netherlands? Every Dutch person seems to enjoy the city, the North Sea, and the countryside as a way of life. Everyone here relishes this daily closeness with nature. On foot and by bicycle, they wander the narrow streets of these cities every chance they get, places that still evoke the Dutch Golden Age. This Route du Bonheur running south to north in the Netherlands traverses tulip fields and Van Gogh paintings, passing beside windmills and dolmens, canals and polders. Here in the heart of Europe lies a nation that loves to fete its royal family, painters, florists, and cyclists. Because the in this land atmosphere here is unique, quite as unique as its heritage.

Weeshuis Gouda

Gouda - Netherlands 25 rooms

This property is open.

Hotel and restaurant in town. Next to the famed Jerusalem Chapel, this 16th-century orphanage is now home to 25 intimate, atypical and fairly eccentric suites. With elegant original details and a wink to the 21st century, Weeshuis Gouda celebrates the discrete charm of this city nestled in the country’s “Green Heart” and in easy reach of The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht. Carefully conceived to underscore the city’s rich heritage, it is not only the old and authentic that you will find at this design hotel. A voyage through the ages, it blends beautifully with the soul of Gouda’s historic district — its maze of narrow streets, bridges and canals, its fascinating museum, its cheesemakers and its sweet aroma of hot syrup and waffles in the air. Delighting your senses with world-class dining, chef Remco Kuijpers’ fresh creations and focus on local ingredients add the final touch to your stay at this magical place. ... Learn moreless

Den Hoorn-Texel - Netherlands 12 rooms

This property is annually closed. Reopening on 10/12/2024

Hotel and restaurant in a village. An hour and a half from Amsterdam, twenty minutes by boat from Den Helder — between the land and the sea — lies Texel, an island in the Frisian archipelago. It is where chef Jef Schuur, hand in hand with his wife Nadine Mögling, has chosen to open a Michelinstarred restaurant and several beautiful modern suites in what was once a presbytery. With the changing tides, he cooks local products such as Wadden Sea cockles with Texel lamb bacon, parsley root cream and a jus of puffed celery. Nadine, a sommelier, is an expert in European wines and uses her extensive knowledge of organic and natural wines to create subtle and unique pairings to compliment the cuisine's harmonious contrasts of tastes and textures. ...
