Where it began - the inn that kept growing

It started small. An inn on the Brink, with a few rooms upstairs. No luxury. No room service. But a warm bed, a hearty meal and a place to share stories. Onder de Linden was not a hotel then. It was a resting place. For farmers, merchants, trade travellers. For people who were on the move - literally and figuratively. 

A door to peace 

The rooms were simple. Wooden floors, iron beds, a sink with a jug of water. But those who stayed here felt welcome. Because that wasn't in the mattress or the curtains. It was in the welcome. In the way you were looked at. In the silence of the night and the smell of fresh bread at dawn. 

Each room had its own story. Sometimes someone stayed there for one night. Sometimes a whole week. Sometimes people came back - year after year. The inn slowly grew with the guests. 

A house full of stories 

What makes these rooms special is not their size. It is the soul that hangs in them. The memories left between the walls. The conversations that have been held here. The letters that have been written. The dreamers who have been staring at the ceiling, while outside the rain tapped softly. 

Each room is like a blank page. And each guest writes their own chapter there. 

From inn to hotel 

Much changed over the years. The rooms became more comfortable. The bathrooms newer. The beds bigger. But the core remained the same: peace, attention, hospitality. 

Today, you open a door here that was once opened by hundreds of others. Not as a tourist, but as a traveller. Not as a passer-by, but as part of the story. 

Coming home, but different 

Under the Linden is not a hotel with cold corridors or impersonal service. It is a place with character. With wooden details, soft light and an atmosphere you can't explain - but you can feel. Here you can land. Clear your head. Just disappear into a book, a walk or a good conversation at the bar. 

And maybe, when you step into your room soon, you'll feel it too. That you are somewhere right. Where history moves gently with the now. And where you are welcome - just like that first houseguest, ever.
