Expert reviews
“14-room-and-suite De Durgerdam is entering a crowded hotel market, but what it offers is like nothing else out there for those seeking a mini-break immersion into Amsterdam’s art, design and food scenes. This is the perfect blend of city break and seaside escape, with homely convivial communal spaces and cosy, calming bedrooms.”
“In a delightful and unexpected spot, this is a sophisticated hidden secret with superb food and warm, professional service. Though just 20 minutes from the city centre, De Durgerdam is a charming lakeside inn that feels far from the crowds and makes an ideal choice for a city break with a sea-and-countryside bolt on.”

All you need to know
De Durgerdam is a wonderfully peaceful boutique hotel, tucked away in a little village by the water just outside Amsterdam. With only eleven guest rooms and three suites, in a charming 17th-century main house plus a guesthouse, it feels intimate and calm. The interiors are soothing, inspired by lakeside nature, with soft, muted tones and heritage design touches.
Staying here really feels like a gentle escape from the city buzz. You’re just a short 15-minute drive from central Amsterdam, but the setting feels worlds away. Tall grasses, quiet water views, and cozy corners to unwind. Whether you’re relaxing in a garden room with floor-to-ceiling windows or curling up in one of the suites overlooking meadows and lake, there’s a strong sense of serenity.
