Information

Dijk 74 · 24 rooms · View of the harbour and the Drommedaris

The place

Die Port van Cleve occupies a monumental early 17th-century house on the Dijk, the quay of Enkhuizen's inner harbour, with the Drommedaris tower opposite. It has been a hotel since around 1900 and was completely renovated a few years ago: it has 24 rooms, single and double, a lift, the La Dique restaurant, lounge, bar and a terrace over the harbour.

Why stay here

Because you sleep at the heart of the harbour, five minutes from the station and the Medemblik boat, and twenty minutes' walk from the Zuiderzeemuseum. With a night here, the museum village and the Historic Triangle fit into two unhurried days.

Getting there and parking

From the station, five minutes on foot along the harbour. By car, in front of the hotel you can park with a disc for three hours from 10:00 to 20:00, and on Sundays it is free all day; for longer, the free car park beside the station.
