Hotel Ernst Sillem Hoeve

Hidden in the royal woods of Lage Vuursche, just outside Utrecht and 35 km away from Amsterdam, lies a stunning hotel in a tranquil environment. Everything about this hotel breaths relaxation and hospitality. The friendly hotel staff, beautiful natural surroundings and extended hotel facilities all add to a pleasant stay. The hotel restaurant serves a variety of tasty dishes, all proudly prepared with an eye for detail. On Sunday evenings guests can enjoy a selection of light meals instead. This former coach house, dating from 1880, combines an authentic atmosphere with modern facilities and comfort. Pleasantly removed from the hustle and bustle yet conveniently close to main cities, this truly is a distinguished location for your business meetings, events or weekend stay. Activities offered at Hotel Ernst Sillem Hoeve include table tennis and jeu de boules.

Would stay again

A unique stay in the middle of a beautiful forest, with lovely opportunities for walking and biking.

Pros: The room was large (even with the fold out couch out, the room did not feel cramped) and very comfortable. The pool was a real hit with our children and the coffee facilities were appreciated. The staff were friendly and helpfully directed us to nearby walks in the forest.

Cons: There was relatively little in the immediate vicinity in terms of restaurants etc.

Pros: The place is very nice, in the middle of the forest, with plenty of activities available within the hotel or around. The staff is very friendly and welcoming and overall the services excellent.

Cons: Nothing really. Perhaps just a mini fridge in the room could be a nice addition.

Netherlands 🇳🇱

Nice location, friendly stuff.

Pros: Location is very nice, leafy, plenty of opportunities for shorter or longer walks.

Cons: The double bed is actually two separate matresses, not linked to each other and they slidewards. 🤣 We had reserved a table for dinner (mandatory to reserve) but when we went, although they had tables we were not accommodated. The tables remained empty throughout the evening. They were big tables and we were just two of us, but still, it made no sense, not to let us use one of those tables. I’d like to chalk it down to typical lack of flexibility/ingenuity that I observe sometimes in Dutch hospitality. Sometimes it seems as if “it doesn’t compute”.

Good place for a stay in this area

Pros: Comfortable and spacious room. Very nice shower, separate toilet. Excellent breakfast.

Cons: Nothing really, maybe the distance between the parking and entrance/reception and from there to the rooms
