Just one more week to go! The grand doors of the Efteling Grand Hotel will soon open. Are you ready for a Grand Entrance?

Only a few more days until the Efteling Grand Hotel opens its doors.

A sneak peek inside the Efteling Grand Hotel

The Efteling Grand Hotel is exclusively for hotel guests – but we understand you're curious to see what it looks like both inside and out. That's why we're treating you to a magical preview!

Step inside the brand-new Efteling Grand Hotel for the very first time! What’s your first impression?

The Efteling Grand Hotel is so much more than just a place to sleep. It’s where hospitality, comfort and enchantment come together in the most unique way. For the very first time, we’re opening the doors just a little, to reveal a glimpse of what awaits you inside: a warm and welcoming lobby, elegant rooms, enchanting restaurants, the swimming pool and many other special spots. Every detail has been carefully crafted to make you feel like you’ve stepped into another world. This is where unforgettable memories are made!

Island of the Five Senses

In line with the Efteling’s vision for this area, the hotel also marks the beginning of a whole new realm at the main entrance: the Island of the Five Senses. This area stretches from the car park to the Efteling Theatre, the House of the Five Senses, the Efteling Grand Hotel and Aquanura. The Island of the Five Senses will become the vibrant heart of the World of Efteling for all park and hotel guests alike.

On the Island of the Five Senses, you’ll mainly find evergreen plants with a few enchanting highlights. The flowerbeds are shaped like leaves, emphasizing Efteling’s roots as a natural park.

Elegant interiors

The Efteling Grand Hotel brings you closer to the magic of Efteling than ever before. From any of the 140 rooms and suites, you’ll enjoy views of the Fairytale Forest, the Aquanura water show, the House of the Five Senses or the Pardoes Promenade. With 644 crisp, freshly made beds, a dreamy night’s sleep is guaranteed. The luxurious bathrooms are fully equipped with exclusive Efteling Grand Hotel toiletries, silky-soft towels and snug bathrobes.

The lobby boasts a 7.5-metre-tall chandelier adorned with golden keys.
In this room, the bunk beds are tucked away in a cosy little nook.
The colours of each room are inspired by the views outside.

Pool & Spa

Hidden in the magical lower level, the swimming pool and spa facilities invite you to splash, float or simply relax. For the brave, there’s even a mysterious marble ornament in the pool – and every now and then, water cascades down from above.

The enchanting flavours of the Efteling Grand Hotel

Two surprising restaurants ensure every moment of the day is filled with magic and wonder. Brasserie 7 serves up classic dishes with seven magical ingredients. Restaurant-Bar Mystique is a true evening-long taste adventure – and the perfect hotel lounge bar for signature cocktails and the finest bar bites. And at Café Biscuit, the barista will serve you the best coffee and the most delicious biscuit in the entire hotel!

Come and dine at Brasserie 7 and enjoy classic dishes – each with a twist of seven magical ingredients.
