What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Hup styles itself ‘the sportiest hotel in the Netherlands,’ and there’s quite a lot of evidence to support their claim — you can play tennis…
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Surrounded by quiet Mierlo woodlands, walking and cycling trails sit just beyond the door, a short drive from Eindhoven.
The rooms
Interiors feature bold graphic prints and energetic sports motifs, offering straightforward comfort for families and visiting athletic teams.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated indoor pool is ringed by a stone deck, with an adjacent whirlpool tub under ambient cove lighting.
The sauna and lounge
Thermal facilities include a classic wooden sauna and steam bath, leading to a quiet stone-tiled lounge with a tea station.
The gym and courts
The gym provides strength equipment and stationary bikes alongside indoor tennis courts, squash, and an indoor sports hall.
Sports Bar
Overhead television screens and soccer-ball tilework surround the curved timber bar, which pours cold beers alongside classic pub fare.
At the table
HUP EET sets out morning breakfast buffets in the dining room, and HUP GRILL hosts interactive tabletop barbecues.
How it began

Named after the classic Dutch cheering chant, the property was redesigned in 2018 into a dedicated sports and play resort.
