The hype
Great for a green escape or business trip, but don't expect 5-star luxury details.
Doubletree By Hilton Royal Parc Soestduinen
$120-160/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want a corporate-grade retreat in the woods where the golf course is the backyard and the city is a short drive away.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Direct access to the stunning Soester Duinen sand dunes
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with forest or golf course views
- Heated indoor pool that's actually warm enough for swimming
Kurzfassung: A solid, slightly dated conference hotel that rests on its beautiful location rather than its interior design.
Bewertet von @ikostravel: I escaped to this spot just outside Amsterdam to recharge. The balance of working from a quiet room with golf course views and then hitting the spa bucket shower was exactly what I needed. Plus, eating pizza in a king-sized bed is my definition of self-care.

Vor der Buchung
Gut zu wissen
- Public transport is weak; the bus stop is close but service is limited—a car is highly recommended
- Bike rentals are available on-site and are the best way to see the dunes
- The 'Royal Parc' name implies grandeur, but it's more 'functional business' than 'royal palace'
Was Sie einpacken sollten
- Walking shoes for the sand dunes (they are real sand, not just dirt paths)
- Earplugs for the thin walls
- Swim cap if you plan to do laps (pool can get busy with kids)
