Atmosphere & possibilities
Your guests enter a former monastery where history is palpable. The building was opened in 1952 as a monastery of the Crusaders. Education and hospitality already played an important role then. These functions are once again visible today: the building is now a learning hotel with meeting rooms, hotel rooms, and Restaurant Novice.
A business day can logically unfold here. You welcome your guests in the monastery corridors, start with a plenary session in the Church Hall, and then divide the group into smaller rooms. The Refectorium, once the dining hall of the fathers, works well for presentations and meetings. The former relaxation room of the Crusaders is now the Cruisian Hall, with a view of the greenery.
After the substantive program, guests move on to drinks, a buffet, or dinner. This can be in the monastery corridors, Restaurant Novice, or the Church Hall. For a multi-day program, guests can stay overnight in one of the 21 hotel rooms. The rooms are located where the quarters of the Crusaders used to be.

Sustainable meetings and dining
Leerhotel Het Klooster and Restaurant Novice make conscious choices in sustainability. You can notice this in the kitchen, in the garden, and in the way the hotel works daily towards less waste and more greenery.
The own vegetable garden plays a visible role in this. Here, the team harvests fresh herbs, edible flowers, vegetables, and fruits for the dishes of Restaurant Novice. Additionally, the restaurant has an herb garden from LIF, so fresh herbs can be used at any time.
Food waste is also given attention. Through Instock, the location purchases rescued products for the hospitality industry. Furthermore, Leerhotel Het Klooster collaborates with Hotels for Trees. When a hotel guest skips room cleaning, a tree is planted.
Sustainability is also reflected in smaller choices. The location uses The Good Roll, 100% tree-friendly toilet paper. Additionally, energy is saved with, among other things, LED lighting. In the garden, fruit trees and bushes have been planted, including apple, pear, cherry, quince, peach, kiwi, and Japanese wineberry.
Restaurant Novice
Restaurant Novice completes your event with lunch, drinks, dinner, or breakfast. The kitchen works with seasonal products, ingredients from the own vegetable garden, and local collaborations.
You can use Restaurant Novice for a business dinner, a closing lunch, or a culinary part of your multi-day program. The menu changes regularly, and there are suitable wines to accompany the dishes.
