Step-by-step: How to reserve all 32 rooms at Hotel Old Dutch
1) Lock your dates and group profile
Begin by aligning on your preferred dates and a rough guest profile. Decide whether guests will room solo or in pairs—each listed room type accommodates 1–2 guests with a king-size bed and breakfast included. If sea views matter to key stakeholders, earmark sufficient IJsselmeer-facing rooms early.
2) Choose your room mix
Hotel Old Dutch offers four distinct categories. Share these links with your group so guests can review features and request preferences:
- Superior Room (27 m², king-size bed, luxury breakfast)
- Superior Room with Sea View (27 m², king-size bed, IJsselmeer view, luxury breakfast)
- Comfort Double Room (17 m², king-size bed, luxury breakfast)
- Comfort Room with Sea View (17 m², king-size bed, IJsselmeer view, luxury breakfast)
Or browse all room types in one place.
