Best Luxury Hotels in The Netherlands
Located in western Europe with a compact geography, the Netherlands is a serene place to explore with picturesque canals, vibrant tulip fields, traditional windmills, and an active cycling culture. But beyond this idyllic landscape visitors will find an artistic heritage and a nation dedicated to craftsmanship and design.
The Van Gogh Museum and Anne Frank House in Amsterdam are a must for those seeking a cultural experience, and the cafes and bars are the perfect pit stop to fuel up with a stack of Poffertjes. Eindhoven and Rotterdam sit at the cutting edge of Dutch Design, and as a contrast to the city adventures visitors should explore the many pretty villages home to medieval castles and churches whilst the grassy polder lowlands, wildlife-rich national parks, and miles of dune-hemmed beaches are the perfect spot for outdoor enthusiasts.
