The cost of a weekend in the Veluwe depends on room type, season, and any additional packages. At Van der Valk, a comfortable overnight stay can start from around €90 per night. Choosing a luxury room or a package that includes dinner will push prices higher. There are often special offers available to make it more affordable.
To experience the Veluwe properly, we recommend staying at least two nights. This gives you time for scenic walks or bike rides, visiting a museum or attraction, and enjoying the hotel’s amenities. A long weekend (three days) offers even more space to unwind and explore.
Popular spots on the Veluwe include De Hoge Veluwe National Park, Paleis Het Loo, the Posbank, Radio Kootwijk, and the Kröller‑Müller Museum. Villages like Otterlo, Hoenderloo, Garderen, and cities such as Apeldoorn and Harderwijk are also well worth a visit. From Van der Valk hotels, you will often be very close to these highlights.
