Hotel Flora Batava
Located within a chain of country estates along the Vecht River, this estate is a gem with a rich history. In 1685, botanist Agnes Block cultivated the first fruit-bearing pineapple plant in the Netherlands here, earning her the nickname 'Flora Batava'. The current villa is 157 years old and has recently undergone skillful restoration. The tastefully decorated rooms feature large windows, comfortable beds, and a modern soothing interior. Every space has been designed with attention to detail. In addition to the villa, which houses the reception and restaurant, there are also two outbuildings where the remaining hotel rooms and meeting rooms are situated. The flower-filled garden has been restored to its former glory. Patricia Debie took care of the garden design, including walking paths, flower beds, a beautiful pond, and terraces.
