Chef André Gerrits conceived this riverbank inn for relaxed dining, welcoming boaters and overnight guests straight off the water.

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Contemporary guest rooms look across the courtyard or river Vecht, which can be explored by renting a boat just by the hotel.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Quiet cycling paths wind along the Vecht, leading past historic country estates to neighboring Loenen aan de Vecht.
The rooms
Contemporary rooms look straight out over the Vecht or face the quiet inner courtyard.
At the table
The bistro serves steak tartare and spit-roasted chicken beside a marble bar, and tables spill onto the river terrace.
How it began
The riverside building housed local village restaurants, including De Kampioen and Het Soldaatje, before reopening as an inn in 2022.
