The Art & Legacy of De Bij

A Canvas of History

Boutique Hotel De Bij is housed in a monumental building dating back to 1752. Once part of Middelburg’s storied architectural tapestry, each of the 14 suites retains its own character from original beams to ornate facades melding authenticity with unexpected elegance.

Revived for Modern Comforts

Restored with care, De Bij preserves its historical soul while weaving in modern luxury. Original parquet flooring, vintage architectural touches, and heritage structural elements coexist alongside contemporary comforts, premium beds, designer toiletries, blackout curtains, and in-room technology.

You’ll find yourself steps from the Market square, the Zeeuws Museum, and many landmarks that whisper stories of Zeeland’s past.
