De Utrechtsche Dom

South Holland


On a quiet street, this old-fashioned guesthouse offers 12 neat but worn rooms; the cheapest share bathrooms, and many are cramped. It's been an inn for more than 300 years, although the stables get little use from coachmen these days. Guests enjoy the garden and the all-day free tea/coffee on offer in the downstairs breakfast room. Breakfast included; bike storage available.
