Central Park Voorburg - Relais & Chateaux

What Central Park Voorburg - Relais & Chateaux does

Central Park Voorburg operates a 14-room boutique hotel and Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant housed within the historic 18th-century Vreugd & Rust estate, a Dutch national monument (Rijksmonument) located in Voorburg, South Holland, adjacent to a park of the same name. The restaurant, led by Chefs Tim Bood and Hette Hettema, holds a Michelin star awarded in 2023 and re-assessed in 2025, a Gault & Millau third chef's hat, and a wine list of over 2,750 references recognized as Gault & Millau Wine List of the Year 2023 and Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence 2026. The hotel features five room categories (Royal Terrace Suite, Royal Suite, Executive Suite, Deluxe Room, Comfort Room) equipped with Hästens beds, and supports a third event-driven revenue stream through multi-purpose venues (Tuinzaal, Lounge, Willem I) accommodating up to 350 standing guests for weddings, corporate meetings, and private dining. The venue has been a member of Relais & Châteaux since July 2022.

The business is privately held, with SVH Meestergastheer Joey de Kruijf serving as co-owner since 2017 and responsible for day-to-day operations alongside a team of approximately 15 employees. The operating model is direct-to-consumer: bookings are transacted through the bilingual (Dutch/English) website, phone reservations, and walk-ins, with no third-party resellers or marketplace channels. Curated stay packages such as the Central Park Package and the Vreugd & Rust Bicycle Package bundle accommodation with dining and activities. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based.

The broader market context is the premium and luxury hospitality segment in the Randstad region of the Netherlands, with the property positioned as a destination venue benefiting from proximity to The Hague, Rotterdam, and Schiphol Airport. Competitive differentiation rests on the combination of an irreplicable historic setting, credentialed culinary and service talent, an award-winning wine program, and global brand affiliation through Relais & Châteaux and the Michelin Guide. Revenue is split across accommodation, restaurant covers, events, and ancillary services including breakfast and curated packages.
