Why choose hotel De Gouden Haan ?
Hotel De Gouden Haan is an attractive and romantic villa hotel in Belle Epoque style, located in beautiful De Haan, just 200 m from the beach. De Haan is a pleasant coastal town without high-rise buildings, very suitable for recreational walks on the seawall, in the villa district and along the beach. Between De Haan and Wenduine, you can also take a walk in the woods. Although small and "village-like," you will find all the necessary stores and amenities (pharmacists, doctors, etc) in De Haan, as well as many excellent coffee houses, brasseries and restaurants.
Hotel De Gouden Haan has 7 cozy and comfortable rooms and suites. The hotel used to have 12 rooms, which were renovated a few years ago and merged into more spacious rooms.
We strived in the renovations to preserve as much as possible the charm of Villa Fraternitas from the bygone Belle Epoque times, but of course all rooms are now equipped with contemporary comforts (flat screen, wifi, small fridge, kettle etc).
Hotel De Gouden Haan is a cozy and small-scale hotel, operated for many years by the owner herself. It is a pleasant place to unwind and relax, whether for a short stay or a long vacation. We welcome you in your own language (Ne - Fr - De - En). During your stay, we are of course happy to provide assistance if you wish (restaurant reservations, info on pharmacists and doctors, renting a bike, tips for excursions, etc). We are happy and proud that many of our guests return year after year.
Hotel De Gouden Haan is one of the few hotels in De Haan that provides private parking for each room (free of charge). So even on vacations and other busy days, there is always room for our guests. The parking lot is located behind the hotel and is fenced. So your car is safely parked there, away from public roads. Many guests also appreciate our lounges and our loggia (pictured above), where you can linger quietly to read a book, and use the free coffee and tea facilities.
The hotel is on a quiet side street, yet centrally located in the "Concession," De Haan's picturesque villa district. For the benefit of our numerous peace-seeking customers, we opted several years ago for the "adults only hotel" formula (no children under 12). Although we are great animal lovers, for noise and hygiene reasons, we do not accept them at the hotel. You can relax not only in your room, but also in the loggia, in the lounges and in the outdoor garden in front of the hotel.
There are many good hotels in De Haan. We do not aspire to be the best or the cheapest hotel. You will surely find in De Haan a more luxurious hotel (but probably also more expensive) or a cheaper hotel (but with smaller rooms, or less quiet, or with dogs ...).
We do have the firm ambition to be a hotel where I myself would like to stay: small-scale, quiet, clean, comfortable.
