This is a beautiful converted mansion built in in 1909, recently modernized. Great for relaxing get away or longer stay to explore the Netherlands. The gardens lead to a National Park. It is about 25 km outside Amsterdam but there is easy access to the city (25 mins every 30 min) as well as other locations by train from Sandpoort Nord station. Hotel will arrange taxis (however taxi to Amsterdam is €100 one way compared with €8 roundtrip on train. The staff are great with helpful suggestions on trips and restaurants. Hotel restaurant is excellent for dinner. Bar is open as an alternative. Breakfast (cooked or continental) is included, substantial and high quality. Lunch is on the patio (weather permitting). Boschbeek is local restaurant that provides traditional Dutch food, and is easily reached by bike (available at hotel). Bistro Bar Indonesia (https://www.bistrobarindonesia.nl/en/home/) in Haarlem is highly recommended (accessible by bike, taxi or train). Spa facilities are very good but only open at 3 PM on week days. Rooms with en suite bathrooms are reasonably spacious and well appointed (request room on 1st floor with view of the gardens and the park). Overall - highly recommended, would stay there again. For Formula One fans, hotel is close to the Dutch Grande Prix track - crew and some drivers stay at this hotel. Book early, room rates likely to be very expensive!
