Hotel Het Wapen van Harmelen

Het Wapen van Harmelen is a welcoming family hotel, restaurant and café in the centre of Harmelen. The hotel is centrally located in the Netherlands, in a rural setting on the Oude Rijn river, about 8 kilometres from Woerden and Utrecht. Guests can come here for a relaxing overnight stay, lunch or dinner in the restaurant and various business meetings, meetings and gatherings.

The hotel has 42 comfortable rooms, equipped with a bathroom with shower and toilet, television, telephone and free internet. Some rooms offer views over the surrounding meadows. Besides the main building, the hotel also has an annex with additional rooms. The restaurant serves an extensive à la carte menu and a separate lunch menu.

Het Wapen van Harmelen has a rich history and was the beating heart of the Harmelen community for many years. Originally, the building was an inn that also served as a courthouse. Harmelen's sheriff and aldermen held their sessions here. After the municipality of Harmelen got its own town hall in 1868, the administration continued to meet in Het Wapen van Harmelen for meetings. Auctions also took place there and various polder boards met here for consultations.

In popular speech, Het Wapen van Harmelen is sometimes still called "Stelling". This name originated in 1940, when the Stelling family took over the premises. The fourth generation of the Stelling family is now at the helm of the family business. Robert and Monique Stelling are proud to continue the family hotel and look forward to a special milestone: in 2029, Het Wapen van Harmelen will celebrate no less than its 125th anniversary as a family business.
