't Lansink (Hotel - Restaurant)

We had a fantastic time enjoying the warm hospitality and cozy luxury of Boutique Hotel ‘t Lansink, particularly in their outstanding restaurant. If this restaurant were located in the Amsterdam area (luckily, it’s not), it would undoubtedly have earned a second Michelin star by now. The flavors were exquisite, the presentation stunning, and Chef Lars and his kitchen team are true culinary magicians! Special mention goes to Riche, the sommelier, who is nothing short of a magician himself. His wine pairings add incredible flavor and depth to the dishes, and his explanations are like mini wine cabaret performances—informative, entertaining, and full of passion. The hotel itself is charming and comfortable, housed in the historic former guesthouse of the Stork company. Yes, the rooms creak and squeak a bit, but that only adds to the atmosphere. So, if you’re looking to experience Michelin-starred dining while delighting your taste buds to the fullest—without breaking the bank—head to Boutique Hotel & Restaurant ‘t Lansink. Highly recommended!

It’s a lovely boutique hotel in a little town of Hengelo. We stopped there for one night to have dinner at the hotel's Michelin star restaurant. The square it is in is very charming, very Dutch and great for a stroll. The room we had was very nice. It had a coffee maker, a kettle, a hairdryer, a fairly large TV with a good selection of channels. The only thing that was missing on this hot day was air-conditioning; therefore the fan was on all through the night. The staff was very polite and not surprisingly spoke good English. The 5 course tasting menu with wine we had was a unique experience but didn’t come cheap. All the waiters were very knowledgeable, quick, helpful and spoke good English. As for the food and wine – it well exceeded our expectations and the night was truly unforgettable. You can hardly believe how many flavors there can be contained in the little portions served. Pity though, the elegant menu was only in Dutch. We also had breakfast in the morning, which was also very nice except for scrambled eggs, which was nothing to write home about. All in all-we had a very pleasurable, if not inexpensive stay.
