What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
There’s heritage in the walls at Parc Broekhuizen, but nothing feels preserved in amber.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Wooded trails lead straight from the estate grounds into the surrounding forests of Nationaal Park Utrechtse Heuvelrug.
The rooms
Rooms in the Coach House sit under exposed timber beams, reached along an indoor greenhouse corridor roofed in glass.
In-room massage
In-room massages and Ayurvedic Marma treatments take place beside grand sash windows looking out over the estate pond.
At the table
Guests enter Michelin-starred Restaurant Voltaire through the kitchen, and Bistro LOF cooks produce harvested from the organic garden.
How it began
The main house was rebuilt after a 1906 fire, faithfully recreating the 1810 Empire design and its Ionic portico.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
