A Rich History in the Heart of Nature

In 1930, "De Witte Bergen" opened its doors, named after the nearby white sand dunes. The charming tearoom quickly became a popular stop for cyclists and hikers, who would enjoy refreshments before, during, or after their outings.

Bowling Alley Origins

Thanks to its growing popularity, the tearoom soon evolved into a café-restaurant with its own bowling alleys. The most significant transformation came in the 1960s, when the bowling lanes made way for hotel rooms.

Meetings, Celebrations & Dining

Today, Van der Valk Hotel Restaurant De Witte Bergen is a modern hospitality venue. With 18 multifunctional rooms, the location is ideal for meetings, conferences, and trade fairs during the day, and serves as a vibrant setting for parties and events in the evening. The restaurant has retained its warm and intimate atmosphere and welcomes guests seven days a week—from early morning until late at night. The hotel now boasts 162 rooms, each equipped with luxurious amenities.

A Unique and Central Location

Centrally located and easily accessible, the hotel offers ample parking and borders a vast natural reserve. Situated at the edge of the Gooi region, the hotel is surrounded by nature stretching from the Gooimeer lake in the north to the provincial border near Hollandsche Rading, 15 kilometers south. The Gooi Nature Reserve encompasses around 40 protected areas across several municipalities, most of which are managed as dedicated nature preserves.
