Hof van Marken, Marken

Hof van Marken, Marken - Hotel Description

On the borders of the IJsselmeer, you find the splendid former isle of Marken. Even though it was only connected with the mainland in 1957, the atmosphere of old has never ceased to reign in the pretty island, with its colourful costumes, still worn especially on festive high-days.

Amidst the characteristic greenpainted wooden houses at only a stone´s throw away from the harbour lies a unique location :
Hotel Restaurant Hof van Marken.
Hof van Marken is an excellent starting point for excursions to nearby rural villages like Durgerdam, Zuiderwoude, Broek in Waterland, Monnickendam and Volendam.

Hotel accommodation is available on Marken again !
For almost 35 years the old hotel on this former and authentic island was not in use. Being the only hotel accommodation on Marken, the hotel now offers seven nostalgic hotel rooms, all differently decorated in characteristic ´Waterland´ colours and equipped with ancient elements and splendid stylistic photographs of Marken.
Here you can enjoy the silence, the changeable skies above the IJsselmeer or the surroundings of the island during a weekend or short holiday.

Hof van Marken has become a magnificent location with atmosphere outstanding for receptions, feasts and parties, etc. that can be concluded with an overnight stay.
Historical elements of the old premises anno 1905 are kept in the contemporary and pleasant hotel. A unique historical photo exposition, composed from private collections is to be admired on the walls of the restaurant. The collection, acquired partly by the co-operation of the Marken Museum, offers an image of life on Marken in the beginning of the former century. The bed-and-breakfast character and personal approach makes Hof van Marken a unique location.
