4-star hotels in Laren
A shortlist of the 4-star hotels in Laren, for travellers who want a small Gooi town with easy access to Amsterdam, Utrecht and the surrounding countryside, and who would rather compare two well-placed addresses than scroll through a long list.
Staying in Laren
Laren is a small town in the Gooi region of the Netherlands, an area of woods, heath and country estates between Amsterdam and Utrecht. Visitors come for the green surroundings, the quiet streets and the short hop to cities and to the water at the Gooimeer. Its two 4-star hotels sit on the edge of that landscape. Grandcafe Boutique Hotel Eemland stands on Laarderweg 74, on the road into the town, and Najade Resort Het Gooi stands on Goyergracht Zuid 13, out along the canal to the south.
With a guest rating of 4.4 from 917 reviews, Grandcafe Boutique Hotel Eemland suits couples and families who want a base with rooms, food on site and a playground for children. Najade Resort Het Gooi is the smaller, quieter choice, with a bicycle hire and horse riding on the doorstep, and it works well for a short break in the countryside. Both are 4-star, both are in Laren, and both fit travellers who want the Gooi rather than a city centre.
