Restaurant and Residence Kaatje bij de Sluis

I didn't stay at the hotel but went for the promotion lunch and I was a fantastic one Every dish was surprising, beautiful and amazing in the combination of the traditional and innovative. Not a single one was boring I especially appreciated the desserts (with the pistachio lemon one as a very heavenly combination!) The only thing that made me wonder were their supplement prices: -10€ for a tiny piece of organ meat (kalfszwezerik) -15 eur per person for friandises - sorry but this is scandalous for 2 tiny cookies and 2 pralines. The only place where I ever paid that much was a 2⭐Michelin restaurant Cheese platter was in good balance for price-ratio 🤹🏼‍♀️ So all in all: wonderful meals but inexplicably high supplements, so our rating lands at 4⭐

Delicious food! We had the 9 course menu on a Wednesday night in February 2025. The dishes that we were served were a beautiful mix between creative and delectable. If you're looking for a great dining experience, want to spend to get something good, and don't need frilly over the top service from a 1 star Michelan place, this is a good choice!

Took my partner for his birthday. We had the 9 course amuse dinner, and it was fabulous. Some of the wine pairings could have been better (but you probably won't notice unless you have a professional culinary background as my partner does). Everything was on point in the dishes themselves. Having given them advance notice they also took care to make a very classy point of wishing him happy birthday. Package deals are available, and I suggest getting one as this makes it significantly easier on the portemonnee, especially bc the wine is Not cheap. ;)

Lovely restaurant, with very kind staff. Our waitress Elize made sure we had a wonderful evening.

This is my 2025 review following our November 2025 visit: We have returned after 3 years, and still very much satisfied with everything: small cozy atmosphere, friendly service, great/tasty/original dishes. In my humble opinion this restaurant fully deserves its Michelin star (also after the change in ownership), and still a very good alternative for the overpriced Michelin star restaurants in Randstad area This my previous 2022 review: Only dined in the restaurant without overnight. As usual a very pleasant experience with fine and original dishes (9 small tasting courses) coupled with good wine pairing. This is way different compared to randstad, but certainly recommended and deserves its Michelin.

Great hotel in near perfect location. Lovely staff.||||Arrived to find dedicated hotel parking in a compact area of town which was nice. Room was a real "WOW" (See photos).||||Huge hot tub looked great but water pressure was very low so would have taken hours to fill. Used shower instead.||||Room was basic - not a typical international hotel thank goodness! - and the bed was lovely & comfortable.||||The only negative thing we would say is that we ate at the nearby restaurant (Which was out of this world.) but when the food bill arrived, they had also added the room charge. This meant that the bill was way over 350 Euros. So you pay 21% service charge on the first 117.50 Euros, and an extra 6% on bills over 350 Euros. We didn't notice this at the time (Blame the wine!) so when you throw in the cash tip we left, the combined service/tip was quite substantial.||||Breakfast was amazingly bonkers! 5 Star cold Continental breakfast. 1st course was a slice of tomato with a drip of basil oil followed by smoked goose breast. Then some lovely bread rolls, local butter, the nicest strawberry jam we had ever tasted, smoked salmon terrine, smoked pork pate, pork terrine. This was followed with grapefruit moose, huge black cherries, etc. On and on it went.||||No orange juice - just fresh pear juice - and nothing hot so no chance of a cheeky boiled egg!||||Glad we tried it but far too rich for us in the morning.

Welcomed by friendly staff as we walked in the entry. Very pleased with our room. The views out onto the canal and church steeple were beautiful. The jetted tub, also offering a view of the church steeple, was appreciated after walking the old harbor and city streets. The breakfast was delicious, locally sourced and artfully presented. I recommend this hotel for a romantic and comfortable stay.

Very very slow, and no explanation of the dish, not sure how this is Michelin! The whole lunch took almost 4 hours! The food was nice, just so slow!
